Hello sweets! My actual closet has been filled for years with far to many "throw-away" items (pieces that don't even hold up well enough to donate the following season). For this coming year (and on) I've decided that it's time to start purchasing well-made clothing that I can wear for years to come (time to hone my personal style too). It sounds simple enough, but on the sort of itty-bitty budget I have, owning quality pieces (mind you I'm not even talking about the über labels here) will take time and saving. I suppose that things worth having are worth waiting and working for, right?!
Fortunately I got a jump-start on my mission with the help of a little Christmas money, and was able to get a few of the things I've been really needing/wanting for a bit (I've put a little * following the picks I now have) - the rest is good old inspiration. What's in your imaginary closet today?
- A new haircut and color. This photo of model Freja Beha Erichsen (found on pinterest) was my haircut inspiration. I couldn't find the photographer info for this shot, so please share if you know. *
- I've also just discovered that I can finally wear lip color now that my hair is a bit darker. Woohoo. Black Honey Almost Lipstick from Clinique apparently looks good on everyone. *
- Cashmere Sweater from Uniqlo (found via pinterest and A Cup of Jo). Oh how I love it (but I don't think it's still available - sadness)!
- Solid Chinos from Scotch & Soda - love the cut of these (be sure to check out the rest of their line too).
- This might be the ideal bag for me - casual but luxe at the same time.
- Gold Bar Bracelet - A little something shiny on the wrist never hurt anyone.
- I finally found my perfect wallet. It is everything I wanted and more (and the price was perfect). *
- Black Canvas Tretorn Shoes *
(A Million and One Wishes by me)
