My clothing addiction began around my senior year of high school. I really got tired of how I looked wearing XL adidas tees (a medium or a small is more of an accurate fit for me so just imagine how ridiculous this looked
), cheap jeans and vans all the time.
I started off with the basics... prada sport and gucci. This eventually developed moreso when I hit college and I "cleaned up my act" so to speak. I began to figure out what lines really enhanced my silhouette and what the term quality really meant.
As the desire for unique items and quality increased, so did the costs for individual items as well as total spending. Since getting to know DH and other brands (Helmut Lang, Jil Sander, Neil Barrett etc.), I think I spend something like $200-300 a month on average. Sometimes this spikes with $1000+ items
but thats a rarity (1-2 times a year).
I think this spending level is going to drop once I meet a nice girl. Can't wait to buy awesome things for her!
