Oh it's very tough for me as well, that's why I'm not out of it completely but the day I no longer need a social media presence, maybe I'll give it a try and see how I feel lol >.
I love your grounded thoughts on this topic! I can add my own little story to the discussion on priorities with fashion. I got my first Acronym jacket last year after saving for a LONG time (I'd wanted one for years before I had enough to safely afford it) - I was so excited to finally own one. Then, only a couple of weeks after getting it, I slipped on wet steps and damaged the reflective sleeve falling onto hard stone. I got some cuts and bruises, but I was much more upset about my hard-earned grail getting damaged. After contacting the company, sadly no replacement parts or repairs were available. I still love the jacket, but it can never feel like the "perfect" piece I originally bought. This experience really made me question the value of fashion when every purchase is a gamble - any number of unexpected things can happen to devalue what you buy, or you could simply lose something altogether if something happens like a bag getting stolen. I'm trying to be wiser with my money now and put investments (such as my business) first, so that these kind of things will hurt less in future. However, I still really want more nice clothes, it's so addictive and I am constantly arguing with myself when I see a piece I really want (I still don't have any acronym pants and this is a huge temptation, haha!)
livin without social media is a mindset worth to strive for but very hard as a fashion enthusiast such as myself. huge respect to you.

I’ve mostly been getting my pieces so far through birthday and Christmas money, and is how I mostly plan to build my wardrobe.
