a while ago, on tumblr

I remember seeing a photo of a closet that was down to the bare essentials. The one go-to shirt. The lazy day jeans. The must have sweater. Etc, etc. I'm no fashionista, but I just want to get my closet to look the way I actually want it to look, rather than just what the years have thrown together now..

Today, I did another closet purge. I came home after a long day irritated with the amount of shit I own, as all closet purges begin, and just tore away at the last of the things I am trying to convince myself that I will wear in another lifetime, even though that really means.. never.

My closet is looking more like a skeleton, just the bare essentials. It's so aesthetically pleasing to look at when I walk into my closet. I think it's been a total of 3 years of closet purges to get it this way. I think I need one more in a few months and things will be perfect. It's pretty annoying selling my clothes though, I'm at the point where I just want them all gone.

 Now I want to invest in it with things I actually need... which means I'm now on a t-shirt ban. I have own and bought way too many t-shirts for my own good, when I should've spent that money on things I actually need.. like business attire. Or jackets because I'm always freezing.

I've spent a lot of money this weekend.. $60 dinner on Thursday night. $40 Friday night's shenanigans. Nick paid for Saturday but today I killed.. $60.

I've definitely been overspending and looking at this weekend, I'm not sure if it was all necessary. Oh well. It's just one of those weekends where the money is flying out of your pocket faster than you can count.. until you realize how much you don't have.

It's time to settle down now.. I need to focus my money back onto the bare essentials to live simply, live fully.
