If there’s one thing the RID project has made me think about, it’s the accessories.
Like this belt – it’s fine…but really, how many belts should someone own.
It’s like the category of “stuff for stuff” – bags to hold things, bookshelves to hold books, cd racks, blah, blah, blah,…I think I spend as much money/effort taking care of stuff I own, rather than simply owning what I do.
So, as the RID project nears its completion, I remind myself not to over-accessorize.
My wardrobe, my apartment,…
my life.
I wear a leather band saying ‘of course nothing else than another additional something’ (from droog) as a reminder not to buy more unnecessary stuff. I don’t always heed this advice, but I’m trying to!
