I die

Garance told us she owns

three short-sleeved striped shirts,
two long-sleeved striped shirts
two round-necked striped pullovers,
and one striped cardigan.

But Joslyn had to go and take a picture of her own closet. Just to rub it in.

And me with my one striped Velvet tee I'm running into the ground.

p.s. The stripes are almost precisely this color, now that they have faded.

p.p.s. Shirt, I don't know if I tell you often enough how much I love you. Even if you do have four, fuck! five, growing holes in your front. I hand wash you! Why would you do me like that?

  2. Stripes are my favourite, my very favourite. I don't have any at the moment though, all of my stripy tops wore out at once. I think I need to go shopping
