When I look at photos of myself in high school or college- I tend to feel a bit horrified because of my frighteningly casual attire. I wore a lot of too-big tee shirts and jeans. I think I was a bit self-conscious back then and tended to hide in my clothing.
I started to realize as I got into my 20s that I wanted more from myself in the fashion sense so I started trying to spice it up a bit. I think I really started hitting my stride a few years back. After years of being a mediocre dresser I finally felt like I was lookin’ pretty put together!

But… recently I began noticing that I was less interested in going clothing shopping. Plus, I’ve really been going through a change in the way I dress myself. I started pondering what could be going on with me! The girl who loved her clothing so much suddenly was becoming apathetic about them? I’ve even lost a lot of my interest in shoes. Ahem- what is WRONG with me!?
I’ve come up with a couple guesses as to what might be happening! Could it be possible that I’m slowly starting to forget how to dress my own shape… I wonder if other women go through the same thing at various points in their lives. As things change and weight fluctuates a bit- might we lose sight of what looks flattering on us? Could be I guess.
The other reason that entered my mind. - maybe I’m having a tougher time rationalizing spending money on clothing and shoes because I’m feeling a bit of more frugal because things feel uncertain right now? That’s a possibility, too.
I guess I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this ebbing and flowing of fashion sense? If so- how did you fix it? How did you answer the question as to what may be happening? Input is much appreciated.
