My jackets and blazers are basic colors with a variety of styles that I remind myself I do not need more. Especially no more blazers. If I find an interesting cut jacket in a fascinating color or fabric would be the only reason I would purchase another. I do need tops to go under the jackets I already have. I do not want checks, polka dots, stripes, or flowers. And for me though I love sparkly I am over sequins. Lace is tricky because it can look aging on me. I am thinking chiffon but we shall see.
The first thing I pick up and think about trying on is a pair of powder pink jeans at H & M. Then realize I am not shopping for jeans so we move on. The clothes are very poor quality but I like the challenge of finding something fun that does not appear cheap in fit and fabric. As I keep wandering and picking up items and feel the fabric I see some green jeans. As I hold them up in front of the mirror I remind myself, "no jeans". I leave the store and go to Forever 21.
A few weeks ago I bought a white fabric short coat that I like. It was $26.00 and because it is white I know it will cost more to clean than what I paid for it so when I found another one today and tried it on to make sure how much I love it I bought another. Yes, I heard Jackie O. bought 6 of the same thing so I bought 2 of these coats. As I continued to look for tops I know F21 is another junior store that is a fluke when I can find something. I find some chiffon tops but they are just not quite right so ready to go purchase my coat when I come across a white blazer. I try it on and tell myself I only have one other white blazer and I can always use another one so yeah........I did.
Making my two purchases I continued going in and out of the mall stores but my heart was not in it so I cut my shopping trip short and as I was driving home thought about my purchases and decided I am not sorry. I just wonder how my psyche can start out telling me one thing and end up doing the exact opposite?
