Ok so I need some clothing.
We have $ need and so I keep putting me at the bottom of the list. But, to make a good impression etc I need to present myself well.I am hoping to visit some women who work in jobs I am interested in learning about.
Any advice appreciated!

Hi HK -

What type of work setting would you be working in, e.g., corporate, non-profit, school, etc.?

Schools!
Oh my goodness was I in the flesh when I wrote this.
I got mad threw out my coat !!!!
It was black (once) sort of turned greenish and sagging from washing
And Black is not my best color.
Then I threw out one of my 2 pair of shoes.So i am wearing heels temporarily.But It was cathartic!
I ordered a new coat found a coupon online -just100.00.
As for the rest of it I made a list of what I need colors I want so everything will go together and just wait in God

I totally understand, I'm going through something similar...not sure what region you live in but now through the next few weeks, you can find great clearance sales on winter items...I did something similar last weekend...got fed up that I wear the same outfits to work everyweek (and I work with two fashionistas so I sometimes feel self - conscious though I shouldn't - we're all at different life stages) and always put myself at the bottom of the priority totem pole, so I went to a store and found sweaters for $19.99 that were regularly prices at $60-$70... and a nice pair of dark jeans for $21.99 (around half price)..

I've resolved that with each paycheck, I'm setting aside an amount so that I can can buy something for me. It doesn't have to be pricey nor do I have to spend a lot but I've forgotten that I don't have to spend a lot, I just have to spend wisely and consistently....
