pi_po_password 34. Wardrobe blunders! Things I bought that I ended up regretting!
Hmmmm… I’ve bought and then sold many things without having worn them- its rare I jump the gun on items honestly- but to pick out and say I “regretted” buying something is like close to impossible for me. I put in way too much thought into what it is I want in my wardrobe and keep a pretty clear list of the few remaining things I seriously still want. I buy things because there's a role to be played by the piece in my wardrobe- like when i bought a burgundy VCastle blouse from taobao. I had wanted a red blouse, and i regretted having not preordered the recently released red back pintuck blouse by BABY, so to avoid further fear of missing out i got the VCastle one. I never wore it though and by fall of 2025 BABY released back pintuck blouses in red again and i quickly preordered one, leading me to sell the unworn VCastle one. I've already worn the BABY one now a handful of times!
I buy things because there is a distinct lack of it in my wardrobe, be it because its a basic or because i want to try something in particular with a coord [like when i wanted to do a complete blue coord with my blue tartan jsk. Regardless despite how it looks and what i say i'm unable to buy things for the sake of buying - i mean i dont have the disposable income to do so lol.
Of course there have been items which i wish could have been exactly what i wanted rather than having to settle for what was available - like the size S Ekaterina jsk situation. But to say i felt regret is just not the reality of it all. The feeling of having to settle is quite distinct from that of regretting a decision made- i sure have regretted NOT making decisions though and not taking opportunities, and thinking for just too long. I've also been slightly regretful of some things I've sold- but i always had good reason and want to do so then so i can't let myself dwell along on such decisions.
Anyways this is a question for a more impulsive person i suppose, and even if i am- its a level of impulsiveness which i construe to be completely warranted and entailed to, so I'll come to never voice regret for i had reasons which i constructed out of my own reasoning in the first place!
My wardrobe has "gaps" to fill to be complete - it needn't simply grow like a prized hog! and its current size already drives me up the walls!
Thanks for reading!
