made it all the way through Lent without buying any new clothing for myself (which included buying NOTHING for our Euro trip!!!) + it taught me a few things: 1. I was right, I don't need a lot of new stuff + can do a way better job of being more intentional 2. there are big holes in my spring/summer closet I'd like to fill to have a capsule good enough to pack like I did for Europe but on a warmer weather trip 3. just because something is trending RN doesn't mean it belongs in your closet moving forward I will be focusing on investing in pieces to fill those gaps in my closet, working toward the challenge of extending 40 days of not buying any clothing to 80 days, then eventually 120 days, 180 days, + eventually 365 days...we'll see! found some super affordable transparent socks on amazon after loving the pair I purchased in France so much ^affiliate
