I just went through my wardrobe and about 50% of it is ZARA, Black and White, gold, and very structured.
When did I become so colorless and utilatarian?
Perhaps around the time I started using the Oxford comma, which I've hated with a passion until very recently.
I am struggling with a genuine obsession for buying things, especially clothes. My closets (including the master bedroom and the guest bedroom) are overflowing, I am hoping to have some semblance of a master, walk-in closet once we move (by next Fall, God willing). But until then I am trying to stop shopping and pare down. I have clothes I have never worn but I just can’t part with them. They’re important to me.
When I love something, I love it unconditionally and irrevocably, this especially applies to things I like to wear. Therefore, I need to stop hoarding and start styling.
And now, without further babble - I have been ecstatic about the weather recently in Chicago. It hasn't felt like Fall at all, I think I may be the only girl depressed by pumpkin spiced lattes. I wore my ZARA skort, top, and Miu Miu gold pointed kitten heels. I'm from NJ, we're big on gold...Ay!

YAY! YOU HAZ A BLOG! :)
ReplyDeleteYou look gorgeous in monochrome though. I need me a walk in wardrobe too, my bedroom no longer resembles a bed room, there's clothes, everywhere!

I basically converted our guest room into a walk-in wardrobe, and our basement is fully converted so I store my Asian outfits there (some). I'm terrified of moving back to the UK, simply because I've been dying to find a decent size closet space in homes online and I haven't yet!
DeleteLovely lady, you have rocked the monochromatic look!

Thank you!
DeleteHey pretty lady!! Love the black white gold and red gorgeousness going on here!! I am also prone to gravitate towards black and white - but for past couple years I have incorporated more color in my closet. But I still believe a black and white outfit trumps all!! You look so pretty!
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a wonderful day!

I've gone the opposite route, I used to wear a lot of color! Thank you so much for your lovely comments, you're such a sweetheart.
DeleteLoving this look - and I am not a huge fan of the Zara skort but with tights and those amazing heels- I am loving it! And I am just as big on the Riri Woo! I'm the same way about getting rid of clothes- I have a huge pile of to be sold or donated but I can't seem to let go...

Ha! I sporadically do a clothes swap with my sister and sister-in-law, although both have wildly different styles than mine...but then I'm not letting things go too far, they're still around if I have a change of heart - hasn't happened yet!
DeleteI love/hate the skort.
