THE FASHION TRAP

 We are in full sales season. The stores are full of people rummaging through piles of clothes looking for they don't know very well what, nothing in particular and everything in general. Going on sales is almost, almost a tradition: a summer plan for those of us who are still in the city in the middle of July and continue to dream of vacations. Actually, you are not looking for a bargain, in general and in a few exceptions there is nothing absolutely necessary that we have to go buy. And surely we will end up buying a garment that I am afraid will only last one or two seasons.  

It happens to me. And admit that I myself have gone a couple of times these days through two well-known clothing chains to renew the wardrobe, but the feeling of entering a kind of war scenario overwhelms me so much that it blocks me: I don't see anything. I am unable to buy because I exhaust myself just thinking that I have to wait in that eternal queue at the checkout. I don't even make an effort to look for what I had on file before the sales because either it is not there or there are no sizes left. And it's funny because the stores cunningly put the discounted stuff in a pile, all squashed on many hangers, a bunch of skirts or pants that aren't even separated by size and right next to it, the latest, what's already from the new season but that works perfectly for this one, clothes that they have perfectly organized, arranged by color, and very well displayed on the mannequins, tempting you to choose that and not the garment in which there are 20 more people like you looking for their size
