I've read over and over that when we find a piece that fits + flatters, we should buy it in multiples.
The other day I found a piece that I quite liked. It fit quite nicely. The color fits into my wardrobe perfectly. I tried it on with various bottoms + layers already in my closet... and it is quite versatile. It's a keeper. And even with all my writing about less and enough... do you know what my pressing thought was? I wonder if there is another one on the website... maybe in a different color.
Who do you think I write these posts for? Right, me.
The one piece is brilliant. Another would just be redundant. I find that buying more than one of an item often just makes me get tired of both pieces twice as quickly. Wearing a piece until it can be worn no more should be the goal, and when a piece is of good quality... that doesn't happen for quite a while... and usually not before I'm ready to move on to a new style or color anyway.
Dear Self,
One is enough.
Love,
Jane
