Taste.
Taste can't be bought in a hurry.
It's built slowly, out of everything you once loved a little too loudly.
The bag you had to have at twenty-three.
The haircut.
The man.
The phase nobody talks about.
None of it was a mistake. It was research.
Taste is just a long list of things you've outgrown, edited down to what still feels like you.
That's why it can't be copied. You can buy the same coat as someone. You can't buy the forty decisions that taught her how to wear it.
So be kind to the old versions.
They did the shopping.
You're just keeping the best pieces.
