Re: Jeez ... we're going to spiritualize clothes t
The only "spirit" was her attitude, which she accentuated (and revealed) with her clothing choices.
It bothers me that she interprets it to mean that there was a "spirit attached" to the black clothing. No, it was the attitude with which she put on the black clothing that was incorrect.
*sigh*
Clothing doesn't put a persona on us; it reveals the persona we already have.
