Itchy Sweater

Do you ever open your closet door in the morning, let out that long sigh to express yet again your feelings of “what.on.earth.am.i.going.to.wear.today?!?”. Yep, today was one of those days. Low and behold, though, I spotted a cute, yellow gem of a sweater (a hand-me-down from my mom, thanks? yes, a question mark is the appropriate punctuation here…keep reading) hanging on my closet rack and I actually felt proud of the little outfit I pieced together. It felt spunky and fresh!

Until about twenty minutes into my commute and the realization struck me. The reason I never wear this sweater to begin with: IT. IS. SO. ITCHY. So… I sat through a day in the office fighting that terrible feeling of constant itching. No fashion sense is worth this discomfort. Ok, maybe I’m exaggerating and acting a tiny bit dramatic (admittedly: there are many worse things). But never again will I be deceived by the “cute, innocent, why haven’t I worn you in so long, yellow sweater” staring back at me in my closet. The itchiness just isn’t worth it.

Looking forward to putting on my softest and most comfy PJs the second I walk through my front door tonight!
