Soz, I love wearing something new to important events. Especially, when it could be life altering, like job interviews or an important speech. Clothes send a message and depending on the occasion, if I have the cash, I'll buy one thing new.
I think Portal was refering to the many uses of diamonds aside from jewelry.
Diamond are used mostly by industry in a variety of ways.
Ah, yes industry. I thought she meant on an individual basis. Like uses for it around the house. *LOL*
Hmm, I forgot that about new clothes being all folded, etc., girl buys her stuff at thrifts, mostly. Don't feel sorry for me, I have St. Laurent, Armani, etc. in my closet, albeit over the hill somewhat.
I am now hours from the exciting middle of San Francisco's key shopping area, and am not presently full walleted. But there are some great consignment shops..
