The “I upstaged the bride dress”

When I was a mere lass of twenty (so roughly four years ago) I was accused of “upstaging the bride” by my mother when I wore this dress. Being a young and naive uni student my idea of “dressing up” for a wedding involved buying a hundred dollar Tree Of Life fairy princess dress and wearing it with Bollywood jewellery. Needless to say my mother was completely horrified when we arrived at the wedding only to discover everyone else were wearing sensible two thousand dollar cotton slips in various shades of beige, beige and well beige. The bride, my cousin’s new wife however was a lovely girl who gushed over my dress insisting she had never seen anything so “unique”. Of course I never wore the dress again and the last time I saw my cousin or his wife was at my grandmother’s funeral three years ago.

Confession's of a cheap dress aholic

I’m the sort of girl who has been working part time jobs and successfully wasted every single cent ever since I was fourteen years old. I roughly estimate that during that time I have earned at least a hundred thousand dollars and has it been spent on trips overseas? Cars? Anything remotely worthwhile? Nope it has all fuelled my obsession for clothes, clothes and more clothes!
In one month however I will be turning twenty five years old and I’m pretty sure that’s the age where even the most hardened woman-child should grow the hell up and at least be saving for a trip to Europe. So what’s a clothes addict to do? I’ve decided to get rid of everything that I haven’t worn in six months including at least a dozen evening dresses I just “had to have” but never actually wore. What makes these dresses special however is that each piece of clothing has a special and unique story behind it? I never buy clothes for no reason.
