• Dress #3: 71 Dresses in 71 Days

    March 16th, 2013

    Day three of my NO SHOPPING project.  In case you missed it:

    “I”m a dressaholic. It’s got to stop. For the 100th time I’ve told myself I’m not allowed to buy even one more dress — in fact, let me raise that ante — I’m not allowed to buy ANY articles of clothing (this means shoes, sock, bras, lacy underthings, shirts, blouses — you get the friggin’ point) until I have worn every single one of my 71 dresses. That means 71 dresses in 71 days.”

    I woke up this morning excited to put on a pretty dress. And the red shoes? I never wear them. I’ve had them in my closet for at least three years yet I’ve only worn them a handful of times. Yet I keep buying shoes.

    So here’s Dress 3 which signifies 3 days I haven’t bought one single item to bedecorate myself (I know it’s not a word, but it should be!)

    I’m going to start compiling each photo in a gallery so you all can tell me which dresses to give away.  There are several that are a bit too tight in the mid-section.

      Ha. I’m trying to be equally strong. I am failing miserably. In fact, a few days ago I went to the grocery store (Fred Meyer…which is sort of like Super Walmart but nicer) and turned left at (into) the shoe dept. Ended up buying a new dress and pair of shoes and NO GROCERIES. *sigh*

      Damn it! I love this dress. AND your scary laser eyes. And you for that matter.

      I think this is a great color on you! I don’t know if I am more impressed that you have 71 dresses or that you can fit them all. You look amazing. Hey, if I had those legs, I would wear a dress everyday.

        I’m beginning to think I should help other people shop for dresses because I know just the type that would look fabulous on you! My new career?
