Everyone but me is playing WORD with Friends. So I decided to create WORD WITH CLOTHES.
Each day for the next three weeks, I am going to pull a piece of clothing out of my closet and make a wardrobe around it! The idea came to me tonight - I had no clue what to wear tomorrow since I want to burn all my clothes.Starting tomorrow, I am going to post photos of what I picked and the outfit I put together. I am trying to push myself to pull colors together that I would not normally wear - I tend to be a monochromatic-kinda-gal.
Prior to this, I have been playing I Spy with clothes. I see someone with an outfit on and I wear a close replica of it the next day. I solves my "I Hate All My Clothes" and "I am feeling fat" days. I simply wear that outfit I saw on someone - end of issue.
I am in the 6th month of not shopping for me. I have learned much about my shopping habits, emotions, and issues! My last post on June 22nd will reveal all that learned as well as the amount of money I saved.
With the new school year, I thought I would try something new personally - a year of not buying more clothes, shoes, purses - more anything. My curiosity is spurred really by how much money I can save by not purchasing more... of anything for just me! This journey will begin with my last shopping spree before the first day of school.
