Do you ever try on clothes and put together outfits and then realize that you don't have a place to wear them?

All the time. I have shirts in my closet that I've only worn once because I only had it for that occasion. So now I don't buy anything unless I know I can wear it more than 5 times.

yes. i bought a really cute skirt on impulse yesterday. then got home & realied i have nothing to wear *with* it, much less a place to wear it.

bizzy, you're just going to have to buy more stuff!

manuel, I used to think the same way. Now I'm trying to change that into instead of buying stuff to only wear at certain times, start actually wearing said stuff more.

@hot_rod: Boys do it?! Really? Explain...

I do the opposite. I make up outfits with the plans of wearing them, and then realize I don't actually *own* any of the clothes (example: Polyvore.com)

@manuel: every now and then I like to wear a suit, but i have no reason to wear one.

metalorchid, that's funny. I feel like I do that too sometimes.

hot rod, you could just wear suits for the hell of it! I have a friend who does that like all the time. But he's also the type to pull that off.

i never feel this way, because i wear crazy stuff all the time.

bizzy, post a picture of that skirt and i will figure out how you can wear it appropriately.

@more pepper: I don't have a pic of it here at work, but it's a white pencil skirt with thin silver/gray pinstripes.

I have shiny club shirts for the never that I go to clubs. My dad gave them to me, because apparently my dad is Eurotrash.

@bizzy: well that sounds very summery! you can pair it with any bold colored top and cute flats for day or work, or with pumps for an evening.

Thank you! I'll try that!

Maybe you should go more places?

that's how i feel when i'm naked.

@Jas - wow, you always make me feel pathetic! :P I think it's more like, some outfits are fancy so I feel odd just wearing them to...say, the coffee shop. But I'm trying to adjust that attitude. (But the truth is no one really dresses up here, so people always ask what you're doing if you do look nice.)


@le_sacre - This is cocky of me, but sometimes when I see myself naked I think that many people are missing out. Or perhaps a select few.
