So this weekend I was working on part of my project by going around to different stores and look at the fashions presented in them. Of course I had to visit the great Vivienne Westwood store, because she a genius and a true artist. Well while there I decided to try on some of both ridiculous pieces of fashion, which she creates many, and some stuff that I liked, big mistake! I tried on the this bomber jacket made of a very textured white wool. It was LOVE at first sight! I had only felt this feeling once before and that was in Dior Homme on Rodeo Dr when I tried on another bomber jacket. I stood in front of the mirror for ever and became very attached to it. I looked at the price, £555 okay not to bad, or should I say not as bad a Dior prices. So £555 translates to approximately $900, ouch! I was now making up every excuse as to why I needed to buy this jacket, some included “Il love it!” ; “I would wear it with everything, because it matches with everything” ; “Sacrificing food just means I would be on a mandatory diet”…… and so on. I almost charged it to my mom’s credit card right than and there, but I decided I should sleep on it to make sure I wouldn’t regret it later. All I could think, all I CAN think of is that jacket, but that jacket would mean I would have to give up: food, movies, clubs, BOOZE, traveling, and shopping all together. Luckily I spoke to my mother, who always puts into prospective in the nicest way, and she said that we just didn’t have the money and that I would need the money later on for school and what not. BUT if any of you would like to help me out just let me know! Lol!
It looked a million times better in person
You need to pick up the book Confessions of a Shopaholic. She gives the SAME excuses for clothes! You will get there, in time love, in time.
