How long is your "list"
So as I continue to shrink, I'm losing my kilts as they stop fitting. It doesn't make sense to replace them because I'm changing shape quickly... a good problem to have I guess except that I can't fit into any shirts either due to expanding chest/neck/shoulders, which means that my clothing budget can't be saved for kilts in the immediate term.
Don't worry, they'll go up in the for sale area once I can replace them to help finance new kilt purchases. The problem is that I hate pa&%s now and am forced into them full time.
So I jones. And I come here to live vicariously off of all of you. Riverkilt's Joy of Kilting & the How much $$ threads got me thinking. One of the side effects of being here is that I've started keeping a list of what kilts and clothing I'm going to buy once I get the last 20lbs off. It helps stave off the jones a little bit, I guess. I'm working out the order that I'm going to get things in now as the end is near (2-3 more months after a year and a half of work.)
I've bought 3 kilts, a jacket & waistcoat and a wyvernleatherworks sporran in my mind and am trying to work out which order to buy them in. If you're wondering they're a traditional Scott B&W, Freedomkilts Cargo model & an Alphakilts Aberdeen with the possibility of a USA Kilts Farquharson. All to go with my current Farquharson tank which I'm just 2" short of fitting into.
So help me stave off the jones. How long is your list? Do you just think one kilt ahead? Do you order on impusle? Are you satisfied (yeah, right, pull the other one)? Do you plan a year in advance?
