The simple life, fashion included.


Keeping life simple is a good rule to live by.. It helps you save money, keeps the important things a priority and helps you maintain focus.. This is also something that you can maintain in your wardrobe.. Most of the time when you look in the wardrobe and can't find anything amazing to wear it is because of many points.. Buying things on an impulse, either because you have an event to go to and haven't bought anything for it yet and you need something.. Buying something because you are going to loose weight and have bought it with that optimism in mind.. Or bought a piece just because it is a designer that you want to have a piece of and it is on sale and you just got to have one of theirs in your wardrobe, from personal experience..

It is a good time of year to spend getting familiar with your wardrobe and seeing what is in there and can stay and what is in there and needs to go.. Don't do it with a girlfriend, unless she has an awesome sense of style, do it with a camera and get dressed in each outfit and take a shot of yourself in it.. Also be ruthless, if you are keeping something because it is an awesome cut but doesn't have the glimmer anymore then either get a pattern cut off it or if it can be dyed to give it new life do that or get rid or it or replace it in kind..

Another way of going through your wardrobe is looking at what fits, what doesn't and what you haven't worn yet.. Keep the piles separate on your bed and work through it, the keeps, try them on and see what matches with it.. Also your shoes as well see what your bottoms or frocks are, what shoes go with it and what gaps you may have in your wardrobe and what you have excessive of.. This is a great way to plan out your next shop so that when you hit the stores you will have a good focus on what you need to make your wardrobe complete.. It takes little bits of effort like this to make you feel complete when you are getting ready for an event or for work, or for picking up the kids.. When you feel good you have more focus to spend on the amazing opportunities that are always around you and then you can do more with your days..
