Fashion Secret Conundrum #34: Almost no one, anywhere in the universe, wants you to buy clothing for them.

This is twice as true for females. I know: you are shaking your head in disagreement because your taste is impeccable, or the item in question is just “such a deal,” or whatever. Trust me, though: almost everyone is hiding behind the social custom of politeness by not threatening to choke you to death with a dirty parka for thinking it is a good idea to buy them clothing.

Clothing is personal, taste is specific, and no one wants to be the bad guy and tell you that your taste is worse than a hermit residing inside a cave on a deserted island.

(PS: I forgot to add: but please take the time to buy and donate clothing to those who need it.)
