week 20 new looks: fixing things







in week 20, i think i continued the theme of week 19. namely, never not working on things. in week 20, i abandoned some experiments (that i think were headed towards failure, if they weren't already there) and continued with others (that i think are headed towards success). i might also have continued a theme from a few weeks back. namely, surprising myself by acquiring clothing that i didn't initially intend to acquire. here, it is the coat and sweat jacket with the bell sleeves. having them, i now understand my initial hesitation in getting them. bell sleeves require some work to manage routine tasks (eating, for example). still, i love the two pieces. (and just remove them to accomplish said routine tasks.)

i am wearing rundholz dip 124.

week 19 new looks: never not working on something




for all my clothing successes (from my perspective), there are still many (many) times when i try and fall short (if not downright fail) and then i pick myself up and try again. i have yet to say that it is easy to try and fall short (or fail). but it feels like it is getting easier to keep picking myself up and trying again. so progress. two things i find that really help me. one: knowing that i am on a journey that is unique to me. two: knowing that everyone else is on journey unique to them and really isn't taken up with mine.

week 18 archive looks: trying to break a bad spell



i more often remember the clothes that i was wearing when something unpleasant happens than the clothes that i was wearing when something good but unexpected happens.  though irrational, i am anxious when i wear the same clothes later. i am working on this. because if i really like the clothes, i don't want to part with them. nothing is their fault.

i am wearing rundholz dip 223 (jacket), rundholz dip 123 (high tops) and rundholz dip 119 (top, hoodie and trousers).
