If I Was a Rich Girl )inspired in part by the Bomz!)

Zach Posen would be on speed dial...
Betsey Johnson...or Bets..as I would affectionately call her...would design specifically for me...
And I would shop so much that I would probably have enough clothing that I wouldn't be able to repeat outfits....

Sadly, I'm not rich. I'm not necessarily poor either. Well, in this economy I'm steadily moving towards working poor but, I'm not eating Vienna Sausages and Ramen so I'm doing better than most! Even doing better than most though, I'm still not balling out of control and neither are most of my friends, and acquaintances (at least not that I know of). None of us are celebrities, diplomats, nor heirs or heiresses but, it is a RARE occasion to catch anyone in the same outfit twice! Even though I'm guilty of it myself I still don't understand it! What's really going to happen if someone sees you in the same dress that you wore to some random ass Happy Hour? Who cares if you have pics on facebook wearing that shirt on two separate occasions? I would say on average, if I like a top I'm going to wear it at least 10-15 times before I dispose of it. I don't think this says any less about my fashion sense or my ability to find other cute clothes; maybe I just like the top a lot!

By all means, most people can regularly buy something new and not break their pockets and that's great! However, I don't see the shame in wearing something a few times. Is that even remotely sensical to feel embarrassed or not at the top of your game because you've been spotted in the same thing more than once?

I mean.... if you're really stylish then your fits should be so fly that you owe it to the public to wear it a few more times to make sure that an acceptable amount of people see it and are encouraged to step their game up because you're doing IT! And, you can wear the same blue skirt 4 different times 5 different ways and still not be shook if all the area NewNew's try to keep up with the Jones'. If you're really stylish, and that's what really counts....you really shouldn't give a damn anyway cause anybody that's paying that much attention to what you're wearing is regularly thinking about you...and who doesn't like secret admirers?
