wardrobe malfunction

wardrobe malfunctionTuesdays and Thursdays are hell for me and my closet. It takes me at least half an hour to find an outfit to wear to my internship. It sucks because I spend Monday and Wednesday nights planning out the outfits in my head, then when I put them on in the morning, they’re just unsatisfying.  I usually leave my room with more than half my clothes on the floor. Really, the issue is that I have too many clothes from too long ago, meaning they’re completely inappropriate to wear in front of 2nd graders. Also, I just don’t have enough clothes to pick from. I’ll have a cute top, but not a bottom to match with it, or shoes to go with this or that. This was only the picture of the floor near my closet. I really didn’t feel like taking a picture of the mess around my dresser too.  As often as I like to go shopping, I’m rarely actually buying clothes for myself. Everything is too expensive and I can barely bring myself to spend more than 10 bucks on a top. If I do, I have to REALLY love it. Cuz I mean really, 10 bucks can buy me groceries for two night’s of dinner. Food or clothes? Really not a tough choice there. Most of the paychecks I get nowadays goes straight to groceries and gas. It’s not like I shop anywhere super expensive either. I’ll search ads for grocery deals and any clothes I do buy come from tj max or marshalls, or at least a sale section if I’m at the mall. But the sale pickings here are more difficult to get to before they all get snatched. College campus + lower income area = less cheap pickings for me. I’m probably better off finding sales closer to home.
I don’t wanna grow up. The cost of living sucks.

    I hear ya. Work-appropriate clothes are sometimes pricier. You’re going to have to save your 2 $10 cute tops for a nice $20 conservative work top. :P
