Whether it be clothing, accessories, shoes, beauty products, or electronics we all have our guilty pleasures which we find excuses to spend that last dollar on when payday approaches. My personal guilty pleasure is clothing (obviously).
Last year around this time I came to the realization that I could not stop thrift shopping, not to be confused with shop lifting lol, but It became a regular hobby of mine and it hit me hard as I saw there was a MAJOR problem with this.
Most items I bought I either A. liked for one day and then never wore it again B. didn't fit because I couldn't try it on or C. just wasn't practical and it was completely out of style. Eventually, I was stuck with all of these items in my closet taking up space to the point where I literally had no room and no time to organize it.
The harsh reality I had to face was that my entire room was now turning into the closet. It felt like a virus was taking over my life! There was no organization, things were cluttered, there was dust in places I never thought possible, and it took me hours to find/think of an outfit to wear.
By the time I was done choosing an outfit, I had a huge mess to clean up and a stress headache. A little like Kim Kardashian's recent instagram picture trying on outfits in front of the mirror with clothes sorted everywhere. Yes, I could relate.
If you watched me trying on outfits it looked like pure hassle, and that's what you get when there are just TOO MANY OPTIONS and not enough space. Not attractive or cute if you have friends or even a bf over, especially if you have no time to keep up with the mess. Neither was it a convenience either, actually a hindrance on my style image. This really had to stop.
