With the combination of being a University student and having no job then combining that with the fact you have a expensive taste I have decided to give myself a clothing ban. Extreme yes, but I will try and hold onto this for as long as a month.
I am forever buying clothes, whether I need them or not, however much I don't need a plain skirt in my life, however much I can't afford it, I've even been known to pick up items before putting them back down again realizing I already own said item. It's a madness.
My University wardrobe, I can't even go there. It's so small if I put another item on there I'm pretty sure the railing will come down. Everything is so rammed in I pull stuff out not knowing I even have it here with me.
This is also a problem at home. I'm privileged enough to have a massive wardrobe with two sides. When we moved in to our new house my dad actually warned me not to buy anymore clothes or at least throw some out before buying anything new. I do get rid of a lot of clothes from time to time but still seem to end up with the same amount.
I mean, I don't really see the problem in being addicted to fashion, it's a lot healthier than being addicted to crack or something (and probably cheaper)
However, this temp personal shopping ban to myself is because I have TOO many. I have a rack of clothes with tags still in at home. Have I made my point now?
I have found that this little challenge to myself is do-able providing I pay less attention to links on Twitter, PinInterest, Polyvore, e-mails, etc etc, actually just using my laptop has totally helped oh and walking through shopping centres with my eyes closed, pretty much already the case as my eyesight is so poor.
