Found this shirt in a forgotten bag of clothes from so long ago while trying to see what else I can do away with so others can make full use of them much more than I have. A lot of things I own currently need new homes. I'm putting a lot of these older things I have, that I hardly used, on sale on ebay between this month and the next. It has been kind of irritating that I have given a lot of stuff away last year and I still ended up having a lot more...that I hardly used. Much of this I'd have to blame the maternal side of the family that's in the US. They're mostly 3 women (aunts) and the grandma and being women, they looove to shop when they get the chance to. I'm partly kidding here as I love them so much either way. Haha.
Either way...hmn...there's fun in styling something so old and hardly used when you dig them up from the deepest depth of your seasons' old clothing storage. This might also have contributed to why I only have isolated shopping trips or binges now and then for the past two or three years or so now...
Speaking
of shopping, a brief spiel of it and how I've been going about it
lately here: shopping for me has been about...say, just twice or thrice a
year for about two or three years now. I don't really shop a lot
anymore as opposed to how I did almost daily while attending graduate
studies in Silliman University in Dumaguete City. I shopped a lot more
than I do now when I was in college, too. This is mostly because the
thrift shops are in close proximity to the schools I attended way back
when. I guess I just came to a point where I'd had enough of owning a
lot of things I use once then discard to the deepest depths of my
wardrobe storage. I'm currently making it my life's mission this time to
build a wardrobe of stuff I use frequently...for lounge and casual
since I seem to be an expert on that. I still like the idea of owning a
lot of clothes to last me a lifetime since I do love clothes but one
thing I'd really like to have the most is a more edited closet/wardrobe
because...isn't this always the goal to our getting into and loving
fashion in the first place? Well, unless you're the kind that just love
shopping for the sake of shopping (or stress relief) and hardly cared
about personal style or fashion but otherwise, yes, that, exactly.
Back to the shirt one here. It seems this blog has been seeing a lot of stripes...I still have a few more I'd like to make use of here...okay, for real, just one now since this is done (not saying I won't be wearing this piece a different way here again one day however because I know I totally will... and like the next normal person, I have the tendency to overuse momentary favorite pieces so...). Stripes...they're being a constant in the wardrobe and have been relegated to my definition basics. They just are so, so fun to wear with everything.
