Hand Me Downs No More..

Do you have an older sibling? Remember that lovely purple mini skirt they used to wear and made everyone " Oooo " and " Ahhh " over it? Well, what luck. That skirt just got shoved right into your hands. Now won't you be the centre of attention? You'd finally have your turn in the spotlight. 

But that's not the case.
The skirt is no longer what it used to be. Worn out, tattered, full or rips and tears. Are you expected to trot around in this thing? It's horrid. So broken, it should belong in a trash can. But you can't bear to throw it out. You know it's past glory. You know what potential it once had. Yet, can it ever be restored to it's former glory again?

Probably not. It's a hand me down after all. You should hate hand me downs. You deserve brand new clothes that are able to withstand the test of time. Able to make you feel good. And make you more confident instead of leaving you sheepish all the time, wondering if people are laughing at you for wearing that tattered old hand me down skirt. 

Just the same, I don't want your hand me down love. I'm better than that. I've finally realized it. So, don't waste your time repairing the skirt. In fact, just toss it out the window. You can keep your lousy skirt. I'm going out to get myself a LV fur coat with a pair of Jimmy Choo's to go along with it. 

Fudge you.
