Clothing Renewal

Last week, a few of my friends commented on the bag I was wearing, asking me where I’d gotten it. It is an on-going joke every time one of us points out a new item the other is wearing, as we are all serious outfit-repeating felons and know each other’s wardrobes by heart. The energy walks the fine line of call out culture meets supportive celebratory compliment. I tried to contextualize it for them, a ‘skeleton from my closet’ of sorts. Later on that day, my friend Claire, who had gone to a lycée in New York, immediately recognized the said-skeleton: “oh my god, I haven’t seen one of those since high school. Yes, chic!”
