Buying clothes for the "new you"

I am guilty of buying an article of clothing with the goal of fitting into it "one day." You know the problem with that? That one day never seems to get here. Sure I can fit into that clothing but now it is out of style. It is almost like buying a wedding dress for that wonderful day and not even having a fiancee at the time. You never can tell if you might have to look at maternity wedding dresses when the real time comes. Clothing should just be an expression of who you are today, not who you will be one day in the future.
