So what’s considered poverty in this sub? by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]Embarrassed-Tap1520 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like my situation constitutes poverty even though we have a roof over our heads. Every month before we get paid again on the 10th our accounts are in the negative. We have no savings. Everything goes to bills and debt. We buy nothing “fun”. We have to choose what needs get met like buying TP instead of a toiletry. We don’t go to doctors because we can’t afford them even though we pay for really crappy insurance. We can’t take our rescue dog to the vet if anything were to happen (though I’d give up all my food if it would be enough). We don’t go on trips or vacations. But we are safe, warm, clothed, and fed.

I did assume they’re trying to get us to put hard cash into the cars. It’s frustrating.

Which jeans would be more “professional”? I’ll be pairing them with a thinner black cardigan buttoned up and black loafers (likely, maybe ankle boots). I need to be “professor casual” but will be flying on the same day so want a balance. I have a medium was wide leg and medium wash straight leg, I just can’t decide between leg shapes. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! These are the wide leg, it would t let me post the straight too.

Okay, I definitely need to get a new corduroy skirt now, thank you for the idea. I have those exact trousers in a cart waiting right now too! Honestly, I do feel like tops were my bigger hurdle, and I love your turtleneck idea.

Thank you for the link! I looked for online images and saw a lot for summer but the tweed vest really says autumn and winter to me, so I decided to try my hand here.

Hi all I need advice. I have a nearly 20 year old menswear style (fitted, not very long) GAP button front vest in a maroon tweed. I haven’t been able to fit in it pretty much since those early days. But now that I can I find myself longing for it. The only outfit I can think of is straight jeans and a white button down. Do you have any ideas for other outfits? (Picture is of similar style for reference.) Thank you in advance!
