@queendiva   I managed to get out of the Rack the other day without buying anything and got through the entire month of Jan without shopping/buying online or B&M, not to mention a low-buy month of thrifting.  It's a miracle, I tell ya!  Blessings to you, too.

Thanks @Terrywu   Because I'm a word nerd, I had to look up "dressed to the nines."  

 

The origin of the expression “dressed to the nines” comes from the mid-19th century. The phrase derives from the old Scottish mythology surrounding the “Nine Muses”....

The muse was a perfect source of artistic expression. They would often take the form of a beautiful woman dressed in appealing garments....

The phrase appears in Scottish poetry describing a well-dressed woman. The Epistle to Ramsay, published in 1719 by Scottish poet William Hamilton, pens it.

“The bonny Lines therein thou sent me,

How to the nines they did content me.”

Therefore, “dressed to the nines” is an adaptation of the Scottish, “to the nines.” The earliest written evidence in literature is in the 18th century by poet Robert Burns.

“Though paints auld nature to the nines, In thy sweet Caledonian lines.”
