My love for clothes began years ago with my dear mother who always
took me shopping with her. We'd ride the bus to the big city and
spend all day browsing through the stores admiring all the beautiful
clothes. She never purchased much, but loved to look. She also
shopped to get ideas for sewing and because of that I was the first
kid in my neighboorhood to have hip-hugger, bell bottom jeans that she
sewed for me. I thought I was something and so did my friends!
(Whoops! I just dated myself.) My love clothes later turned into an
obsession... always having to update my wardrobe and find the best
deals. It was the thrill of the hunt and something "brand new" to
wear. When I started bringing items to my local consignment shop that
I had only worn once or twice or with tags still on them, I new it had
gone too far. I turned 50 in October and one of the things on my "50
things to do in my 50th year" is to stop buying clothes for a year. I
cleaned out my closet, started to shop my closet instead of the
clothing stores, and put more time into planning my outfits. I
discovered some pretty nice clothes in that closet of mine that I
really like! And then today I was sent a link to your website. How
amazing! Joining TGAAD will help me stick to my goal. I am going to
love the clothes I have and look fabulous everyday!
