It seems to me that every time the weather changes a thought is triggered in my head telling my I need to go clothes shopping. However, a good portion of this project is about trying to find alternatives to shopping. Therefore, since this project started I have not been able to go shopping for the spring. However, almost every other day I get the thought that I should stop over at Target to pick up a dress or some shorts. But, here is the thing, I have an ample outfits for every season, so why do I want to shop for things I don’t even need? My closet is literally overflowing, almost to the point where it can’t close. The idea of me going shopping is actually ridiculous, but for some reason the thought still prevails. Fortunately there are some alternatives besides don’t go shopping.
One of the things that I have loved, no matter how shallow it may seem, about joining a sorority is the endless amount of closets to explore. One of the new things that I have tried because of this project is borrowing. My friends and I have relearned the sharing process. Creating what we call “Time Sharing” our possessions. She gets a our Time Share sunglasses for one week, I get them for the next. We all have what we need, but by sharing we are able to get what we want with a smaller impact on the environment.
