Now, fashion was never really something Ochaco worried herself over. Most of the clothing she had was either given to her when she arrived at this place, gifts from friends or just something she found at a cheap price. While her frugal habits had indeed improved, it was still a work in progress before she’d be able to spend money without a care in the world. It was kind of important here, after all...
She’d rather have the money to spend on food. Food that she hardly eats. Yeah! That makes sense!
However, she wanted to try something different today. It was something that had actually been recommended to her in an effort to try and help her money-spending. Shopping today was going to be done without even a glance at the price tags. Not only was this supposed to help her pick out which items were more expensive based on their appearance, but also to get her to stop worrying so much about money that she has lots of.
...She kind of needed some help with this though. Just some encouragement not to go against her plan! If she decided to confront a friend about it, she just knew that she’d give up before she even tried. So consulting strangers had to be the next best thing. There’d be that pressure to not waste their time. Healthy pressure, though! That’s what led her up to this woman in particular, hands clasped into fists as she passionately tried to ask for their help. “ ...So yeah! I wanna make sure I stick to it for a while, and you look quite fashionable yourself! Will you help me? “
...Why was she doing this again?
