Clothes, I hate them, but I love them. It seems no matter how much shopping I do, I still have nothing to wear. I have to closets full of clothes, and some pieces I have never worn. I always want to go buy something when a something fun comes up, a birthday or an event. However I do not need to go shopping because I have so many clothes its ridiculous. I get sick of some clothes, especially if it has a bold pattern, or a little different because most likely you can only wear so many times and so many ways. Jeans are a problem of their own. It is a job looking for the right jean, either too long or too short. Sometimes they fit great in the caboose others it looks like I have two! Wow, are they expensive too, if you want a descent pair of jeans, expect to pay at least $60. Actual jeans are not the only thing out there that puts a hole in your wallet. I went to a little shop in Short North, now I know things are a little more expensive, however a black plain t-shirt should NOT be $90! It seems the simple things are even expensive. There are only a few stores I shop at because they are a reasonable price, Target and Forever 21. I like others but way to pricey! I even started thrifting more. Rag-O-Rama is a new store I like, its gently used clothing. I like it because I can find good vintage there. Shoes are hard to find and I promise most shoes out there, especially for women, hate feet! I have bought cheap, they hurt, I have even spend a good chunk of change and BLISTERS! Another funny fact about women's shoes are flats. Women who wear flats most of the time do not wear socks or tights and WOW do they get stinky. I like heels, put I'm sorry I do not want to wear heels all day, and I don't care how much better it may look. I like skinny jean especially when it rains because I do not have to worry about the bottom of my jeans getting wet then running up to my knee. However I do feel that skinny jeans make my thighs look bigger. I like flare and bell bottom but I think they look best with heels. I think it looks wear with flats or sandals. I can not stand when girls will wear flip flops in the winter, there is snow ladies! Then they will wear boots in the summer it does not make sense. I knew it! Spring is here and the first night it was nice out my friends and I went out and every girl was wearing short dresses and showing all they got. I do understand it gets a little warm and the girls just let it all hangout. :)
