By attempting to be 'unconstrained' from fashion, OP has become more constrained than ever. Is she saving time & money? Maybe...but that blog post and graphics sure took some time to put together.

And now that she's made this public, she's stuck. Want to wear something different, colorful, playful? Fuck it, gotta stick to the schedule.

Clothing isn't time consuming or energy draining. It's about finding a style you're comfortable with, wearing it with confidence, and gently moving in and out of new styles as the times (and your personality) change.



I assure you, if she changes her mind and wants to wear something else, no one will think less of her for not staying true to a blog post she once wrote. Maybe it took her time to put the post together, but that was more about writing something interesting than building a how-to doc for the fashion-casual.


How do you possibly reason your way from her making a blog to her not being able to change?


Yeah, I realized I'd get some shit if I ever went out _not_ wearing that outfit in public. It's worth it to write up the process and details anyway. A lot of my friends/peers have been curious about my method.
