Check-in: Clothing Fast
If you are curious about my year long fast from buying new clothes, it's almost over! [The finish line is my birthday- August 14.]
Though my husband said the other day that I'm not really on a fast anymore. You might not know it but I'm still on it. I haven't done so well since my last update [Valentine's Day]. During the first 6 months I did well and only bought 2 items.
Since February, I've bought the following:
- cardigan
- cream sweater
- gray/black casual top
- jean capris
- polka dot dress top
- dress
- black maxi skirt
- gray t-shirt
- white t-shirt
- tank top
- tank top
If I can make it three more weeks without buying anything I will have bought 13 new clothing items in a year. If full disclosure is helpful, I bought a swimsuit too. The 4th of July weekend we were in the Wisconsin Dells and I nearly had a wardrobe malfunction. True story. If you've got a suit that is becoming more sheer and losing a bit of elasticity, take it from me, it's time to get a new one.
