Scratch that, probably all of you think I'm insane.
However, don't think I jumped into this without a day or two loaded down with shopping bags. I mean if I'm to go a year with no clothing purchases, I figured I needed to "stock up." And no, that's not cheating. A few essentials were needed for the journey...and perhaps some nonessentials were thrown into the mix too.
A peek of a few of my last minute buys:
(Perhaps, you shall find some inspiration for your future purchases.)
Black Skinny Jeans
A Bretton Stripe Tee and Dress
Black Studded Skirt
A Gray Blazer
Tie Dye Pants
Basic colored tees and an assortment of leggings including a houndstooth pair and some velvet ones to go a tad bit out of the norm.
P.S. Don't worry, I too think I'm slightly crazy.
One last shopping jaunt for me today if I can squeeze it in and I'm on the wagon...at least through Lent.
ReplyDeletei think you'll find that the money would have been better spent on underwear and socks than on a studded skirt.... a friend of mine did this and by the end she was actually Darning Socks to get herself through to the end.
ReplyDeleteTwo weeks before I started my fast I used some clothing coupons/discounts. I bought a pair of plain gray trousers, a white long-sleeve t-shirt, and a brown sweater. To me, those were essential items. I'm not sure how tie-dye jeans and a studded skirt are deemed essential?
ReplyDeleteObviously, we play by different rules but I think this fast will be harder for you than it was for me.
Well I said I threw in some nonessentials to my shopping. They were on sale...and I LOVE a good bargain.
