One Thing
Monday, July 14, 2014
Do you have a single item of clothing that just feels like a part of you? One thing that has always been your style, so much that you don't think you will ever drift apart from it? Everyone does, and if you don't, it's time to find which piece is a part of you.
For me, it's a pair of Betsey Johnson combat boots that I bought as an impulse purchase on my birthday one year at the Betsey Johnson store in Nashville. They were on sale, and the stylists insisted that these combat boots were screaming my name. Normally, I refuse to impulse buy, especially at a price range like Betsey Johnson (pre bankruptcy!), but something seemed so.... right. So, I did a rare thing - I whipped out a credit card and bought them. I had never done that before, haven't done that since, and I doubt it will ever happen again. However, over 3 years later, these boots are still my number one choice out of everything in my entire closet. They transform every outfit into something tougher and edgier. Made from real leather, they are now molded to my feet for maximum comfort. We have had so many adventures together, and styling has been a dream. I will be sad to see them go, whenever they finally die on me.
What about you? What piece has become a part of you?
P.S. I even got an extra discount for my birthday. See? It was meant to be.
