When I say 'No new clothes', I mean no clothes that are new to me. Besides the black leggings I bought last month, I haven't bought new vestiments in months. I see no need to pay a full price (including the full environmental price) for items when there is plenty to be had at a variety of second hand stores in the area. Remove self from soapbox, and continue... I have recently uncovered a large pile of summer clothes that needs repairing, from a small hole to be sewn closed to a split seam on a very sweet vintage romper to some hemming that needs to be updated. Gonna do some fixin' this June and make that pile of 'to do' disappear. It's already June 4 and I haven't bought anything, so how difficult can another 26 days be? Not very, I'll just avoid my usual hospice shop vice (I'll spend a good $20 on average a month there) at lunchtime and go on a bike ride instead. Yeah for the outdoors to salvage a wayward shopper from yet another summer skirt purchase! |
