good for airplanes, my church, the Arctic, etc.
My boyfriend recommended some books for me to read, and since I value his every thought like the precious drops of heavenly wisdom that they are, and since I’ve been wanting one of them for a long time, I decided to hit up Barnes and Noble after church today and pick up a couple of his suggestions. I had some money on a gift card, and I didn’t want to spend much more than that, so I only got two of them: On Writing Well and Bird by Bird. I’ve already started on the former, and I’ll let you know how they are, but what I really want to show you is this:
I went into Old Slavey after making my purchase at B&N, and I found what appears to be a mannequin who was VERY cold. I mean, what do you see? I count no less than six shirts being displayed here, and apart from the fact that the thought of wearing this outfit is just weird, actually doing it would be completely impractical. Just imagine how often you’d have to do laundry if you wore six shirts every day! I suppose you could just wash the bottom-most one(s) and rotate the rest for the following day(s). But you know that the amount of effort it would take to arrange them just so every morning would not be worth it, especially when you realize that there’s no way they’d stay like that all day. The top one would be the only one visible by lunch, and then you’d just be hot and sweating, unnecessariliy soiling six t-shirts.
It does look kind of cool, though. Maybe I could make myself just one shirt that looked like it had five more underneath, peeking out just so. If you’ll excuse me, I have some sewing to do.

perhaps that is a good fashion idea for new yorkers with little storage space. no closet? no room for a chest of drawers in your 6×8, $2000/month studio apartment? wear everything at once and rotate the layers! brilliant!
hmm, six shirts? it would also pack on ten pounds of fabric alone. and the top shirt would get stretched out from the five shirts underneath! ha.
