I do love clothes, beauty products, makeup and fashion...; I'm actually OBSESSED with those things. I'm very picky and particular about those things. I only wear certain colors, certain patterns, certain cuts, everything has to be exact. But shopping honestly gives me a big headache. Everytime I go shopping I begin to feel AWFUL 30 minutes in. I cannot see how other females shop for hours on end. I prefer to get my bags and shoes from online--I am a big fan of Chanel, Marc Jacobs, etc. Like I said, I enjoy fashion. I feel like it expresses my personality and inner being. But I hate hate HATE malls. I usually just shop at thrift stores or Urban Outfitters since those places are always empty and I'm super cheap. It's silly to say that I love UO, because I can never justify spending more than $30 on a shirt and I freakin' cringe when I have to.
But even with those two, it's too much for me if it's more than 45 minutes. I begin to feel uncomfortable for some odd reason. I never knew why.
I think I only buy new clothes every season if I NEED it. I do donate my clothes a lot of the time since I buy things and never wear them. I dated my ex for eight months and I NEVER dragged him into a store. Everytime we walked by a woman's clothing store he would point it out like "oh, look" as though he expected a reaction from me, but I would just shrug and keep walking. He actually dragged me into more stores! I think he was more into clothes than I was. I just like using what I got an altering them. Like I said, I'm very cheap and hate spending money!
Now that I think about it, him pointing out clothes and talking about taking me shopping made me feel a bit bad about myself. I consider myself very feminine, but I never wear heels because I think they're impractical and I do not wear lbs of makeup. I just wear foundation to even out my skin tone and maybe some blush. On special occasions I add mascara and eyeshadow. I'm a visual person so I like for things to look good, but I'll admit. I dress a bit weird or odd. I never follow trends because I think they're ridiculous (like that new trend of having those clip-in feather s**t in your hair...). So maybe my thing really isn't shopping, but fashion !
