Simply Stylish....forever!

Well, maybe not forever..

If you have picked out your favourite outfit from your clothes and analysed it (see yesterday's post) now you simply need to replicate it.

I know what suits me, what I feel comfortable and confident in and am now asking myself -
Do I have a dressier version of this/a warm enough version/a different coloured version/a smarter version? - whatever my/your lifestyle requires.

This is a good time to make a needs/wants list to take with you when you go shopping.

Phew! My brain is hurting a bit but I think it's been worth it, and I won't have that wedding experience again ever (see here).

Which makes me ask myself what might the wedding or party version of my look be? Narrow silk trousers, silk top, cropped dressier jacket and coloured shoes with a heel? I have three of those items already so might add narrow silk trousers to my shopping list....

Now of course you might say 'but fashions change'. They do, but fashion is about trends and novelty, whereas style is about your personality and about self expression, and your style could be tweaked a little over the years as fashions change....
 
Tomorrow I will change the subject - promise!

Sorry I've been missing, but I have been reading and you've got me thinking. I usually split my wardrobe in two, so currently it's summer in the closet, winter in the box. But it doesn't work so well between seasons, as now. So next time it'll be clothes that fit in the closet and those that don't in the box. Simples!

Glad you've solved that one! (Your recent photographs were so beautiful Jessica.)

This was a really interesting and rewarding series of posts. Recently I returned to knitting. Something I haven't done for years. Analysing my outfit yesterday, prompted me to go on a search for vintage knitting patterns, preferably the thirties. That's part of how I'd like to replicate.
Exciting.

I am so glad you enjoyed them, and 30's knitting sounds very stylish!

it seems as though everyone really enjoyed this topic freda.....don't feel compelled to change the subject on our account...:-)
i have given a lot of thought to everything that has been posted here...am clarifying my style, and that is helping me unload even more unsuitable clothes, and i know it will really make a difference in future purchases....great ideas!
