Go on, admit it. We’ve been watching you anyway. The way you eye off those stiletto’s your co worker struts about in. How you wait outside that dress store drooling over that frockin the window night after night. And when you’re rocking back and forth sweating over your fear of the ten-year-old jeans you’ll inevitably wear again – that’s especially disturbing.
You suffer from a common social affliction known to most specialists as ‘fashion envy’.
We’re here to help. The remedy requires a trip to Hobo, which, as the name would suggest, welcomes the likes of poor little fashion famished you. Hobo survives on the benevolence of wealthy folk who have wardrobes bursting with labels (Scanlan and Theodore, Sass and Bide, Karen Walker etc). They grow quickly tired of last season’s pieces and cast them off. These pre-worn (and some not even worn at all) gems are then sold to you at new (lower) prices.
Take our suggestion on board. Or grow greener with envy and become a bitter old woman who eats three-bean-mix and dresses for ‘comfort’. It’s up to you.
