Confessional

Oh fashion gods, it has been 20 days since my last clothing purchase. My, how taxing it is for me to resist your stylishly tempting ways! ...However, I (thank heavens) have held steadfast in my vow to not make a clothing purchase for one whole year.

I must confess though that after these past 20 days, I have succumbed to making my first shoe/accessory purchase. Urban Outfitters' free shipping for a select number of days was entirely too enticing to pass up since I had been lazily browsing their website the other day and had a few items eagerly staring at me on my wishlist. The free shipping (eventually leading to a purchase) devil hid itself in the form of a gift seemingly from you oh fashion gods. I thought this was your sign of saying, "K, add some new pieces to your wardrobe. Do not feel guilty for making a purchase as shoes and accessories are not clothing." Though I am allowed to make such non-apparel purchases, I have this feeling of guilt for buying two new pairs of shoes and a couple or headbands as if I'm cheating on my shopping diet.

Dear fashion gods, please help me to stay stylishly creative while attempting to resist any form of fashion shopping even if they are not immediately clothes.

Sincerely,

K
