I'm not a huge fan of doing these "what I wore" posts. I have a lifetime of reasons and insecurities to explain why (as I'm sure most women do), but I'll save that for another post. Personally, I enjoy reading outfit posts from other bloggers that I can relate to and hope that mine can be as well. Philip and I don't have money to just shop whenever we want and when we do, it's usually at Forever 21, Target,Buffalo Exchange or various thrift stores. Besides that blue dress I bought a few weekends back, I think the last time that I bought clothing was when I worked for Starbucks. Even then, it was usually one item every now and then with my tip money from the week before. For a while, I wasn't really happy with my closet and just wanted to start a new one. That is a completely unrealistic idea, so I decided to just be more creative with what I do own. Hopefully posting these pictures more often will inspire me to stick with that decision to not complain about my closet.
So cute Chelsea!
ReplyDeleteI want a new closet too! Let's play the lotto : ) I'm a bad influence...
ReplyDeleteI can totally relate. I have had many moments of dressing distress when I just want to throw away all of my clothes and buy new, but that's totally unrealistic and we don't have any money for me to buy anything anyway. Maybe I should do some what I wore posts and get excited about my closet again <3
ReplyDeleteAnother idea-my friends here in Columbus and I did a clothing swap. It was so great to get rid of old clothes and get some new things in return.
I would love to see what i wore posts on your blog! :) ..and there's been talk of a clothes swap with some friends. I think that is a great idea!!
ReplyDelete@christy: thank you!
ReplyDelete@Kaite: yes you are a bad influence. Haha :)
I hear ya sista!
ReplyDeleteCheers,

I love it! and you! I'm inspired by your decision to reuse and rethink things in your closet. I look at old pictures of myself and think 'hey, thats cute!' but I have since gotten rid of it and bought new things that I really never needed to buy. I do a lot of clothes swaps with some of my friends when I clean my closet out, we should plan one with all the girls sometime!
