Well tonight I was going to publish a post I had previously written on Rihanna's new line for River Island. Whilst having another browse through her range I stopped. What am I doing? I free lance as a Personal Stylist, sort out other peoples wardrobes and advise them on their clothes, yet I have completely neglected my own wardrobe and am getting lost pretty much every night on the internet looking at all the amazing clothes and deals that are out there. As I am such a firm bargain hunter, I do tend to justify many of my purchases within an inch of their wear but to be honest, my own wardrobe needs a damn good sort out.
So my blog today is directed at me, no more shopping, I need to take stock and clear out. I know there are some shoes lurking in the back shelf which are dated and dusty (oh Lordy I've just admitted that for all to know). I need to practise what I preach:
Rotate that wardrobe.
Wear those hidden gems.
Replace order in my much loved clothes.
I am feeling brave, this to some I know will not look messy, but to me, it hasn't had a sort through in far too long. I aim for 3 times a year and I am very behind. I am only sharing my main wardrobe, the other is coats, tracksuits etc, occasion dresses and some Ebay items I really need to sell. Shoes in that one are boots and nearly in order....yes all, I like my clothes, shoes, handbags, fashion, style, I'll stop there.

| An overall glimpse! |
 |
| An out of order rail, I am not impressed with myself right now! |
 |
| Clutches, Across the body and coloured bags, 'special ones' in dust bags. |
 |
| Dark handbags (oh and the Hubby's footy bag mmm) not too bad |
 |
| Shoes don't look too bad but there's some dusty ones at the back! |
 |
| Tees, Cardis, Jumpers, Scarves, L/S Tees, Vests, Gloves (in box) - a mess! |
I do plan on showing you a tidier wardrobe once I pull my finger out.....! Night all, taking my 'Look' magazine to bed as I can't shop there! x
I love getting a glimpse of other people's wardrobes. It's like seeing into people's brains I think. It's not too bad at all but I know a tip top wardrobe makes a big difference when getting dressed so try to keep on top of mine too.
ReplyDeleteI'm like Trea - I love being a nosey parker. Yours makes me feel slightly better about mine. Mine looks only just slightly more ordered and that's because the overspill is in boxes in the spare room. If I tried to put that lot in - it would be carnage. Would love to see how this organising pans out. It might encourage me to do something about mine then. Or not :o)
ReplyDeleteIs is fascinating, I am really keen to see inside stylish people's wardrobes. As I always wonder if access is the magic to putting things together. Most of my stuff is in large plastic boxes so I can never really be bothered to hunt it out!
ReplyDeleteI too enjoy a nose, so thought I would put myself out there to be nosed at!
ReplyDeleteGlad I've helped Sue! I only have 1 large tote for high season items so Summer stuff in there at the mo, then will swap for hats, gloves etc when I'm done with them. I try to limit it to 1 box as I like my wardrobe to be as versatile as possible with layering!
I am planning on the shelves and rail on Saturday as eldest child will be out with Nanna and hubby home to entertain youngest so fingers crossed!
The Find - I've seen very stylish peoples wardrobes and they can sometimes be a tip! I am always better at organising other peoples as I devote my time to them better than myself, hence the need now to make sure I put some time aside for mine! When are you moving Bicester way? I will come sort out your boxes!!!
