nothing to wear

September 7, 2007 in wala lang | Tags: | 10 comments

this morning while getting ready for work, i was faced with the dilemma of i-have-a-closet-full-of-clothes-but-nothing-to-wear. i think this is normal for most women and some men. there i was in my room, late for work already, but still trying on and discarding clothes from my closet.

it all starts when the first outfit you try on, normally the one you planned wearing for the day doesn’t seem to work. today, i wanted to wear my new adidas ballet flats. so i first tried on my pink skirt and a shirt but it didn’t seem right. here’s kinda what happened…

this skirt is too short for work. this top is too tight. i’m gaining weight again. do i want to wear jeans? no, not really. why don’t i wear my favorite denim skirt? that always works! hmm… no, apparently not always. at least not today. maybe i should try tights, uso naman eh. NO! note to self: i have to start exercising more! hmm… let me check my sister’s closet… shirts, shirts and more shirts. note to self, buy more shirts! hmm… this looks nice… nyek! medyo backless. wala akong bra for that. how does my sister wear that kaya. anyway, let me check my closet again. pwede bang wag nalang magtrabaho today? haay, i feel fat today. and i miss my hair. where’s that black dress that i wear when i feel like nothing looks good on me? oh, shit, i wore that last friday. hmph! i need more clothes!

after trying on about 8 shirts, 4 skirts, 3 tanktops, and 1 leggings i gave up and finally ended up wearing the skirt i first tried on and a white top, the last i tried on.

at least i got to wear my new shoes. which was a mistake because since it’s new, it hurts. i forgot to bring band-aid and i don’t have any here in the office. good thing mercury drug is just across the street.

it’s weird, sometimes i think i have too many clothes. i don’t get to wear most of them anymore. but then during days like these i seem to not have enough clothes.

it’s sad, because i don’t go shopping as much as i used to. i’ll bet my mom is happy with this though. my credit card bills were getting higher and higher when i still wasn’t working. now that i’m busy with work, i don’t have time to shop anymore.

payday na next week, shopping naman tayo!!! i need a casual dress that i can wear when i feel like nothing else looks good on me. 😉

i’m currently obsessed with…

... victoria's secret lingerie (i really want to buy some and have them shipped here)
... tumblr-ing
... hula-hooping
... learning my old piano pieces again
... expensive stuff i can't afford
... still being kissed ala north & south

That’s the closest to my idea of love: watching the skyline, making out, making mistakes, making believe desire means it’s with somebody else, then breaking up, and, if we’re lucky, forgiveness that comes right before take-off. There, I’ve said it. What more can one want? A lover who loves me as much as the rain. Rain, and, from the opening credits to the closing heart, Gershwin.
