Oh, that bewildered panic that every fashionista has come to know and dread! Its first signs come in the form of a disheveled closet, clothes strewn across the floor as they are plucked from their hangers and rejected. Maybe an event invitation shares the floor space, but more often than not, the occasion the fashionista is dressing for is something much less formal, something that didn't merit an outfit planned in advance. The fashionista looks wildly around the room, her frenzied gaze darting between the clock and the wardrobe as time begins to run out. Her hair is mussed from being shoved through endless shirt collars, her cheeks flushed and her palms sweaty. Any interruption, save the appearance of a fairy godmother clutching a miracle dress, would be met with a snarl.
The danger is real. The ferocity of a fashionista with nothing to wear rivals only that of a fashionista at a sample sale. Take heed, and stay away.
Okay, so I may be exaggerating a tad.
My wardrobe has been letting me down a bit lately. Is it obvious?

I find that a change in seasons always heralds "nothing to wear syndrome".
cybill- Hmm, I never noticed that. I guess you're right, though.
my wardrobe's been letting me down too.. my closet is overflowing and yet I still feel that I don't have a thing to wear.
s. - Yeah, you'd think the problem would lessen as you obtain more clothing, but it doesn't...
I don't know this from experience, but it just sparked in my head as I read the previous comments:
Maybe this feeling only gets worse as you buy new clothes, rather than actually solving your problem with creative solutions. It's the same with everything else. You can't avoid it by replacing it, you have to solve it.
