Unless…yes there’s an unless. Unless the item is a savvy, well thought out piece that will help create multiple outfits with my existing wardrobe. Pieces that are classic yet on trend (see my Top 5 first purchases post HERE). Another reason why I haven’t shopped yet is because I chose to use some of my money for other things that were more of a priority. I’m making better decisions and choices based on what’s realistic and my needs in my life today. Before I was trying to fill a void and trying to escape reality – unfortunately it worked briefly until it stopped working completely.
I will always appreciate the artistry that goes into designing and constructing clothing, shoes, bags and jewelry. And I love using these pieces to style models in fashion editorials and TV segments – creating a story, a mood, a feeling. But the “things” that are filling me up is the new love and appreciation I have for myself again. The journey through shopping my closet has reignited the zest and passion for creating beautiful imagery through my styling work.
And that is why I haven’t shopped yet. To be continued.
