It does come in white and grey as well.<br /> I was just ogling at them today snd wondering. Now I can't justify another white tee because I have white tops but I want both.<br /> I have decided to wear the black tee tomorrow. If I love it by end of the day I might get the grey and white too.<br /> Not sure if DH would be thrilled:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062170 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 20:10:58 +0000 gryffin 1062170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ramya - the only thing worse than not finding the perfect thing is passing it by.&nbsp; It's the regret you remember years later.&nbsp; Plus, nothing, especially t-shirts, lasts forever.&nbsp; Congrats on finding and buying.&nbsp; My only question is, if&nbsp;it is truly prefect might it not be prudent to duplicate?&nbsp; Just a thought!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062163 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 20:02:51 +0000 Alassë 1062163@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely justified, and good job purging! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062154 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 19:49:13 +0000 Suz 1062154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You did the right thing. :-)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062112 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 18:48:03 +0000 JillG 1062112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Finding the perfect tee in black sounds like an excellent reason to bend the rules.&nbsp; It sounds like you're doing a great job of purging! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062105 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 18:38:23 +0000 Glory 1062105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think that basic and essentials&nbsp;count </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062103 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 18:36:26 +0000 Anonymous 1062103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A good top in black that you've been looking 2 years for is totally justified. Heck if it's great quality and you know you'll get a lot of wear, why not duplicate? Enabling now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062095 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 18:26:57 +0000 Gaylene 1062095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There are A-level tops (high happiness factor), B-level tops (useful, but not exciting anymore), and C-level (lounge wear) tops. I'd have no guilt about buying an A-level top at any time, especially if it meant I got rid of a couple of C-level tops and demoted a few B-level ones to lounge wear.</p> <p>Sounds like that is what you did! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062043 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 17:18:33 +0000 ramya 1062043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo I some day want to be able to predict my needs or wants like you:)<br /> Amiable I here you. These tops either don't work for me now as they are bodycon for my liking or too short for my liking or are looking their age:)<br /> I need to do more of it. But don't want to overwhelm myself;)<br /> DV I have stuff like that but haven't reached to that set yet;). Having split location wardrobe can be curse or boon;) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062036 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 17:12:15 +0000 Mo 1062036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>8 to 1 is a fabulous ratio! &nbsp;No guilt there. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062033 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 17:10:41 +0000 amiable 1062033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good for you! &nbsp;I'm realizing, too, that I need to go through and assess orphans in my closet - mostly I need to try to wear them and force myself to figure out WHY they're orphans. &nbsp;Then, if they shouldn't be, wear them, and if they should be, purge them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1062028 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 17:07:07 +0000 Day Vies 1062028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not at all. I have purging issues myself. I was just thinking about some oprhans in my closet that haven't been worn in 2 years (blushing). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/shopping-accountability#post-1061982 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 16:12:49 +0000 ramya 1061982@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some time ago. I posted here seeking idea for arranging my wardrobe. I just realised then that I have an extensive collection of tops.<br /> I wear knits and weave tops through the year. Seasonal change is taken care by layering.<br /> At that time I promised that I wouldn't buy any more. But today I found the perfect tee in black.<br /> I had to buy it. I have been hunting for it for 2 years now.<br /> In my defense I just purged 5 tops and demoted 3 as lounge wear.<br /> Replacing 8 by 1 not very bad right? </p>
