Control issues and perfectionism are among my many neuroses. I swear a lot. I do drugs (the good kind). I'm a socialist. I studied art in school. Cooking, Baking, US Politics, environmental conservation, mental health, my employer Ramses, That Damn Cat.
I was once called the terror that quacks in the night.
He/Him/Michael/Arrogant jackass.

The worst thing about shopping for clothing in NYC is sometimes you'll wander into a clothing store, and look around a bit, then at some point you check a price tag and only then do you realize it's not a normal store, it's "designer" so unless you call your clothing items "pieces" the prices are absurd.

The current trend is that all these shops look the same.

If you really like a designer item look up "consignment shops" and "seconds racks" they all end up in one or the other eventually.

Plus, something that fits you like a second skin.
I have most of my stuff tailored, but that's because barely anything fits me right, on account of me being so small. All of my "pieces" came from thrift stores. Ms. Lan makes them look like they were made specifically for me. It's a fun little secret.
