Day 5 - The Super Casual
I’m a Levi’s fanatic, you can’t go wrong with a pair of 501 shorts.
May 24th, 2024
The Texas heat has arrived and comfort sometimes trumps style. Add a couple of fun accessories like the iconic Buc-ees trucker hat and a cute yellow shoulder bag and off you go. My mom and her husband came to visit this weekend and even though it’s their 3rd time here, it’s amazing how much there is to do and explore. Austin comes alive like no other place I’ve been to. I’m sitting in bed with a belly full of BBQ and tired feet from walking all over the city today. I cannot take for granted how lucky I am to have an involved family.
I’m curious how this will go on the weekends since I’m off my typical schedule but I can’t find out until I try! One of the other commitments of these 90 days is to abstain from shopping and I received a couple packages today which made me reflect on how the shopping has become a crutch and a “hobby” that I want to address in depth. A main motivator for starting this was to showcase the fun and creativity of shopping your closet, reducing your spending in order to reach financial goals, and putting a stop to this consumerism hamster wheel we all seem to be on.
I’ll take it one day at a time and am simply proud of myself for making it one more day without placing an online order. But I will be purchasing more BBQ tomorrow.
