There are times in life that you just need to step up to the plate.
For me, this usually happens when I run out of things.
In this case. T-shirts.
It's not the first time this happened and for the reader, of my blog, with attention to detail, you might have noticed I do tend to wear the same shirts a lot.
That's because I don't have many of them.
Today I had nothing left to wear. Everything was dirty. Drawer empty. I was done right then and there.
I was going to shop for the first time in years. And nobody was going to stop me.
When I told Bianca I was going to the shop she knew I meant business. I also never saw her dress so fast.
I think she was scared that if she let me go by myself I'll come home with the most awful stuff she had to look at for the next 2 years.
Off we went.
Only in the Netherlands must they think it's a brilliant Idea to use kids to stop cars to help other kids cross the road. Bianca told me if this was Brasil they would just run them over.
We arrived. Normally I would avoid this place like the plague. But I had no choice.
Going up to the men section.
The first thing I saw was this. What a steal! I was done. Bianca looks like she can't believe the adventure is already over. This is not how you shop. We choose all the XXL shirts that we like.
Here's she showing me a nice Marvel Tshirt but I spotted something else.
Ow yeah. After happy socks, it's time for happy T-shirts. This is going in the basket.
After that, I'm slowly yet professionally moved to the exit. Before I can do more damage. I'm fine with it. I'm done shopping :)
On the way out of the store I shoot this video. I like the freedom you feel after leaving a cloths store. I'm free for the next few years.
I am laughing so hard right now!! lol The look on your face is priceless as you leave the store. The funny thing is, I can totally relate to how Bianca feels. My husband is the same way. Same old t shirts he wears over and over again and 2 pairs of khaki shorts. I've always thought it was just him, looks like he's got a brother in the Netherlands. :)

I'm pretty sure a lot of men are the same :). Your husband indeed sounds like me when it comes to clothes, lol!

Yes! This is frickin hilarious. I myself am not a big fan of going shopping and now with all this lovely technology running around it helps with that. You my friend take it to the next level, literally! How tall are you? 6'4" is my guess!

I understand 100% how you feel. It takes a good 6 months to break a t shirt in properly, and after investing that much time and effort into it, you have to get the proper use out of it, say a good 3-4 years minimum! :) There's just some unnatural feeling of being in a department store. Just feels odd. Besides, spending money on clothes is just a waste, that $$ needs to be invested in STEEM. :)

I agree STEEM is the better long term investment. But sadly I need clothes in real life so it had short-term priority. lol. I'm hoping they will last me a while.

That is style. My wife wants to buy me clothes and I'm like " I already have a pair of jeans, why would I want more?"

Of course. When I buy it when alone, wear it underneath another shirt and launder it anywhere but home 😂

I had a chuckle when u said - "Freedom - finally"!. I do not like shopping too. I mostly shop online. It is hot in NL at the moment - so I guess you ran out - so you really needed to run out. :) Glad you found something so quickly. Gelukkig!! (luckily/fortunately for the english speaking reader)

Great post. You made me laugh.
I try to only ever shop online. For clothes its a little tougher - as I like them to fit. But for t-shirts, XXL is XXL, so online it is.
