So whats the problem?

Well. Where do I start. I have two homes at the moment and in one I have two wardrobe complete with two huge sets of drawers plus one I seem to have taken over in my sisters room. All pretty full.

The other, I have a double wardrobe both full and a divan bed with four drawers. Once again all full. Oh and the washing basket, which always seems full.

You know that show, Gok's Fashion Fix? Where he goes and gets peoples wardrobes and strings them up on washing lines and fills ridiculous amounts of room? I could rival one of those me thinks. In number stakes but not style cos thankfully I believe I actually do have some of that.

Now I'm not someone who thinks that you could live on Gok's capsule wardrobe. 24 Items? You have to be kidding right. But I do think that what I do have is excessive, yes I don't wear my items alot. But the majority do get worn (I'm a fan of layering lol). I will take a photo soon of my wardrobe here at home number two.

One day I might just count how many individual items I have. It would take me a good few days but I might.

Clothes, a lot yes, Shoes? Well thats another thing. A girl has got a thing for heels. This girl has a serious thing for heels. I find myself starting to walk around in my bare feet but like I have got heels on just because I like wearing them that much. I have alot of heels all different colours and styles and I love all of them individually, some have been worn, some haven't yet made it out onto the pavement.

Those leopard print dune beauties will find their outfit one day.

My mum doubts I can walk in most of them. But somehow, us girls manage it. Hours and hours out on the town in stupidly high heels, some worthy of the circus stiltwalkers. It causes it such pain*, so why do we do it? Cause it makes us look good. And maybe we have to justify that money spent on that pair that "made" the outfit complete. I put it in quote marks because we know in our head truthfully that there are umpteen pairs of shoes in our wardrobes that go with that outfit, and yet we still pursuade ourselves that it is that pair of shoes in that shop window that will suddenly make that outfit perfect in which it wasn't without them.

Oh and that outfit wasn't really needed anyway, you only went out for a pint of milk.

I sit here now thinking "what will I wear tomorrow?" I like to get a vision in my head of what I think might look good outfit wise. Having just moved my wardrobe vision is slightly blurred and it takes a little longer to remember where everything is.

Smetimes I think I'm crazy. Do other girls do this? Do I worry too much about my clothes and what I'm wearing? What does that say about me? Do I care what it says about me?

Rather chatty mood tonight. (if you couldn't already tell.) This months gonna be hard.

* I once couldn't feel my toes for three days after one night in a pair of shoes, and yes I intend on wearing them again.
