Though we may regretfully have abandoned it, wedream of wearing it again but often it's worn out or doesn't fit us anymore. It may be a souvenir from a trip or a timelesspiece that's frayed and threadbare. Maybe it reminds us of a person who wasdear to us, maybe it's too classic or strict but fits us perfectly, maybe wefound it in a vintage store... in any case, we keep it and take it with uswhenever we move!
