Today I decided to take myself for a walk. I had a doctor's appointment and thought going and coming back by foot could be today's dose of muscle strengthening rehab. Thing is, I arrived early. My timing is totally off lately. I have to recalibrate how long it takes me to get to places - as now I am back to a decent walking rythm!!!
So - what did I do to kill time? I decided to check out some of the stores in the area. Total cost of this excursion? 0 €!!!! Sure there were some really cute things at the stores, but not only did I not feel inclined to try anything on (Converse All Stars make me lazy that way), but, as I checked out the pieces that caught my eye, I realized there is one extra benefit to finding your style. Namely, that you are NOT so easily waylaid by passing trends but are drawn, again and again, to very similar pieces. And, for me atleast, that makes it easier to resist temptation. After all, I have a good catalogue of what I own filed away in my brain. So I "browse" through it and think "I LIKE MINE BETTER!!!"
All this to say that I am happy to announce I now feel no withdrawal symptoms when checking out shops. I enjoy it, sometimes get some interesting ideas about how to style something I already have, but feel no loss at not being able to pick anything up to go. Aren't you proud? ;-)
