I hate my clothes
it's going to be 75f here today and i'm trying to find something springy to wear, the best i could come up with is a short sleeve black tshirt instead of one of the long sleeved ones i wear everyday, i need an intervention. Everything i own is either black, washed out black, grey(might have been black when new) or navy(probably black but looking at in different light).

5. I hate most of my clothes, too.
No matter what I buy, I wind up feeling like it doesn't look good or it's not comfortable.

I would have made a better man, in terms of dressing. I like the simplicity of men's clothing and the fact that you wouldn't have to worry about how your boobs make shirts fit, etc. (Well, unless you had substantial man boobs.)

6. yup, no matter what i buy i always think i look bad and of course i
keep buying the same things over and over again. I need to have one of my friends be really objective and look over my closet and just be brutally honest with me, what should stay, what should go.

7. purple, indigo? DOn't know your style, obviously, but
Old Navy has some great spring skirts, as did Marshalls with lots of hippie-ish and ethnic styles if you like those.

I went to a place callsed WetSeal here, although the name if kind of problematic and it is geared to 20-20 somethings, there were are lots of great t-shirts to layer, cool jackets that look like the Beatles in 1964, interesting spring and summer dresses. They also had cool hats. (I love hats and got a JOhn Lennon hat in black for not a lot of $)

Color seems to be back in, I saw shirts and dresses of all colors.

8. Could always move to Boston or NYC.




You will fit right in. You're not allowed to wear anything that ISN'T black or gray there.


Unless you don't care about being one of the cool kids....
