But…but… you’d look so damn good in them…. *she says feebly*
I dunno…I’m always FOR the buy, never against it…

Of course, you would have rocked the leggings, but the show of restraint is commendable!

Wow! That is a big deal for you! And those are really really hot leggings! I’m sure you could totally make them work though. With a tiny black and white vintage band shirt (I think I’m picturing Mrs. Shreck’s Brian Eno shirt) and really amazing FMPs. I don’t see how it could fail?!

But stay strong. I know it’s a turning point for you. I love you!

No!! Put the damn leggings back in cart and buy them! You don’t need a special place to wear them, just wear them anywhere. If anyone can work them, you can Sister Wolf.

I buy dresses and skirts as well, and hardly ever wear them. Same with heels, I’d be like, “Hmm these are cute, I’d TOTALLY wear them to (insert occasion)” but I always chicken out and end up wearing the same old shit!!!

PS those leggings are way cool!!

Tobi Lynne – God yes!

Make Do – Chanel just fired 200 people, I hear.

WendyB – I never thought of that. But I do take advantage of Christmas parties to wear my bright red CUNT t-shirt! It’s so festive!

Sal – I don’t know about self-aware, but yes, I had a good moment of will power.

David – You are welcome, it’s a pleasure to increase your sequin allotment.

Skye – Yay, make the legging thing go away asap! (But keep wearing your gold ones.)

Iheartfashion – Ha, tell your jackets Hi from mine. I hope we can stop at six!

San Diego Farmgirl – I gave two entire collections away (my devil-obilia and my nurse-obilia) and it was a big relief. Now I have more room for my religious shit.

GOOD FOR YOU! I’ve been weaning myself from “collecting things” this past year, and it’s not easy. But, the less you have, the more you value the things you do have. I always figured that was just some bullshit to make poor people feel better about being poor, but turns out there’s some truth to it. Who knew?

Good for you, Sister Wolf! I have a similar compulsion to own and collect, regardless of necessity. I think I have 6 leather jackets too but I’m afraid to look. My unworn purchases are a constant reminder of my poor impulse control.
