So, last week I basically zombie-walked past the store racks—prices on basic tees? Ridiculous. Who’s paying $30 for a shirt you’ll wear twice, then forget exists? Apparently, the average American drops over $1,400 a year on new clothes (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2024), which… what? For what? Half of it collects dust. Swapping clothes instead […]

Alright, so, I can’t stop noticing—like, literally everywhere I go—people are hauling around the same brown handbags and those washed-out olive sweaters I figured nobody would even clock. Joke’s on me, I guess. There’s this odd rush in spotting so-called “boring” pieces—taupe jeans, straw bags with blazers, all these muted things—suddenly showing up on everyone’s […]

Honestly, does anyone actually enjoy standing in front of their closet, sweating in July, and wondering why those wool pants are even in there? I mean, who’s waking up thinking, “Today’s the day I suffocate in tweed”? Not me. But here’s the thing that still gets me: people toss money at new clothes every single […]

Halfway through chucking a heap of neon tank tops (I swear they multiplied), I keep yanking out crumpled receipts from random pockets—do stores secretly bet on us never returning this stuff, or am I just hopeless? Every time I stare at a mountain of fast fashion rejects, it’s painfully obvious: every “just this once” buy […]

Staring at this heap of “good” dress shirts—half still with creases from the store, tags on, and why did I even buy them? I swear, the flash sale vortex is real. Or maybe I just bought into that thing about needing at least one solid blazer, which, by the way, is now basically a dust […]

Okay, scroll past another influencer “haul” and suddenly every comment’s about how a vintage Chanel jacket outlives six H&M tees, and honestly, I’m just sitting here thinking—wait, weren’t we all team fast fashion like, five minutes ago? Now it’s all about blazers that don’t fall apart, bags with resale value, boots that cost more than […]

That black mini skirt—people always say jeans are the go-to, right? Well, not lately, at least not for me. Capsule wardrobe pieces just sort of worm their way into my regular lineup, not that I’m planning it, and suddenly all my other stuff is just… background noise. These t-shirts I barely registered before, some button-down […]
