It has cute wittle heart buttons. And it's stripey and I love historical reproduction. BUT It will cost about half my disposable income for the rest of the year. I've been saving for a while, and part of the reason I save is so I can get special things like this, but buying special things like this is why I always end up close to paycheck-to-paycheck.
Help me decide! I tend to get hyperfixated on a favorite article of clothing and wear it 3-5x per week until it disintegrates or is really inappropriate for the temperature.
Do you miss anything in your wardrobe? Do you frequently wish you had a jacket like that? If yes, then buying it would add quality to your life. If no, then you probably won’t really miss it if you don’t buy it. Personally I get fixated on expensive things and if I don’t buy it and don’t find myself frequently in situations where I could use it then I forget about it after a few months making me just as happy but with more money to spend on other things that might make me happier. It’s a pretty jacked though!
There was a similar blue denim chore coat I sat on at a vintage shop and wound up missing it. I thought about it for a few months but you're right, the thought does fade.
