Do you have favorite old item of clothing you just can't do without?
I have a pair of black Steve Madden boots I bought in Brooklyn at a huge bargain for $25 about 7 years ago, and even though the zippers are all broken, I keep wearing them. I have bought $90 replacements, so it isn't like that... They just work! The others are OK, but just aren't the same.
I also have an old, old brown suede leather jacket that looks better and more seasoned every year, lol.I have a ratty old sweatshirt that I just love. It's about 10 years old. It's so comfortable that I can't bear to replace it. I only wear it at home though
a comfy tattered faded with-buttons-missing very old denim jacket! but much loved nonetheless
hahahah. I have this old airline blanket that I had when I was in highschool. I still use it and love it. It looks very old and a little bit ugly but I still bring it along even when I travel.
Then! There's this old anorak-ish style, casual, light fleece jacket--grey--that has such a good cut that I keep on wearing it, even though it is getting very warn. It just looks great thrown over jeans like a big cardigan and is so comfortable!
My BF calls it "Linus," after the cartoon character's blanket, lol. Wonder why that is?My childrens winter jackets...
lolmmmm... my pair of Victora's Secret Shorts and my matching fleece shirt. Warm, comfy and relaxing.
I have oh so many items,
, but then, ahem, I admit to having filled more than one closet with clothes.
I also have a black velvet evening dress I bought with tip money when I worked as a waitress at the age of 18. It's vintage circa 1940; bought at an antique shop. Never found a time to wear it. I just like looking at it and the feel of the velvet.High heels
definitely black heels, so worn I can hear the nail when I walk.
it clicks...
I have many t-shirts that I can't throw out due to sentimental value....Someday I'm going to make a t-shirt quilt out of all of them!
