Hi all! Remember me?!
A bit of an explanation of my absence: When Covid and lockdowns hit, I had a very interesting reaction to my clothes. Basically I didn’t want to have anything to do with fashion and shopping, almost instantly. This was a good thing, I have a HUGE wardrobe. But not having to dress up for work, and not being allowed or encouraged to go anywhere… well, I did some soul searching. And hardly bought anything in a year. I’d always found this forum soooo tempting from a “oh I likey must have” perspective, so avoiding it was something that just happened naturally given my head space. Zero interest, and didn’t need the temptation.
In the last three (three?!!) years, I’ve bought a few things, but not much. My work is now work from home 2-3 days a week, so my professional wardrobe needs have really taken a hit. And, my BFF has started selling Cabi. Cabi is hardly mentioned here, but it’s wonderful. Sure, each collection may have only a few things of interest to a person, but they are so well constructed, and the fabrics are wonderful… when they work, they work!
Anyway, that’s where I’ve been. Wearing the same ole clothes from my huge wardrobe, thinking/knowing I have to do some (okay, a lot of) purging, and buying Cabi. But lately I’ve been back on here, and wanting so much to comment, but feeling a bit weird about it given my lack of participation. So I figured I’d say hi, give a bit of an explanation about my absence, and maybe jump back in.
I also lost my photo spot - and now I can’t find my camera (!) so haven’t taken outfit photos in years. I do miss that.
Full disclosure - I’ve already bought Sue’s white Sorel sandals in the current version because of a post. See, I’m pathetic. But I LOVE them!
Not sure when I’ll start posting outfit photos - need to figure out how to do that again. But I do hope to start participating again. I missed this place… maybe not the fashion part, but all you wonderful people.
