There was something on MSNBC a little while ago about a bunch of people who experimented (are experimenting?) with spending a month as though they each own only six items of clothing. Not in an attempt to achieve empathy with people who actually own only six items of clothing, like the thirty-hour famine the local Catholic church has the confirmation kids do. In an attempt to prove that excessive shopping is curable, because excessive shopping is apparently based on the assumption that other people notice your clothes and this experiment disproves that assumption.

The woman being interviewed, the list was something like blazer, blouse, skirt, leggings, jacket, slacks.
