This is not going to be about where you should buy/how you should buy clothes, or what you should buy. There’s just something special about having some items that have lasted you forever, and that you still have managed to wear regularly through personal style evolutions, wear and tear, and couldn’t dream of ever getting rid of. It’s part of your uniform and yours alone even if there are millions just like it elsewhere in stores, in closets or thrift/resale stores. They don’t even need to be expensive or luxury items.
Personal favs for me include a plain light blue oxford button down from J Crew 10+ years ago, a Barbour motorcycle jacket of a similar age I bought after one of my first post college jobs and moving to a new city, and then also an Ohio State football (alma mater!) t shirt I got as a kid before even attending the school, which still somehow fits me believe it or not!
Would love to give items like these to my future kids!

I’ve been trying to spend less on new clothes and it’s giving me the opportunity to rediscover older items in my wardrobe that I haven’t worn in years. And I feel like my style has almost improved?

I love clothes that look like they have been well loved,, like a bag that has some rips and tears but still does its job because it was well made and I was passed down from someone’s mom

it actually isn't that bad!
for a recent assignment i had to go out and draw people in public - just simple gesture drawings, nothing major. and kept forgetting to bring my earbuds at first. i'd get frustrated, yeah, but not enough to go back in and grab them. so i dealt with the silence, and it actually wasn't that bad at all? i mean, i was going to cafes a lot so that helped, but also libraries? places specifically meant to be quiet? and it was great, to the point where i purposefully left my earbuds at home to finish my assignment today.
consider: going places without your earbuds/headphones on purpose

seriously, if you haven't gone to your local library yet, you're missing out! i try to go every couple of weeks to return books and get more. while i love owning my own books as well, borrowing them from the library is great as well! not to mention what they do for ur local community, the resources they have, etc. all of this to say: go visit your local library!!!

seriously! like put on some background music and just sit there with your thoughts. see what comes up. draw weird doodles, make a world for them, sing to them, whatever. just be weird and bored.
to go directly against what i just said, i have a small pocket notebook i collect quotes/thoughts/jokes/poems/etc that i enjoy, and i go through it sometimes instead of scrolling. it takes a little time to get it to a point where it's useable like that, but it's worth it! bonus points if you print photos out and put them in too, make it like an inspiration notebook.
