my wardrobe's current limitation

Some time last month (taking one of a series of self-portraits) and again today (dressing to go to a meeting at the bank) it dawned on me that I often dress like a Mennonite. Especially when I want to dress up a little. I think that it is because of the surrounding communities and their thrift shops. Never would have realized this but for the very different type of thing (those hot-pink spike heeled boots come to mind) that I've been buying since I expanded my horizons.
