Hello all!
I'm sure, like me, a lot of you will understand the pressure (and temptation!) of feeling the need to constantly update your wardrobe with 'new' pieces. If I see an item and I can create an outfit around it in my head, I want it create it in real life. I'm also pretty amazing at justifying why I should buy something; 'it'll go with everything' / 'it'll last forever' / 'it's a classic piece'. I've realised this really isn't a positive or maintainable lifestyle for me at the moment, so, I've made a vow to try and combine the items I already own to create new outfits, and that's exactly what I've done here. I'd never considered pairing my favourite short sleeved pussybow blouse with this dungaree playsuit, but when I did, adding a belt and this sweet little leather bag with gold chain handles (it doesn't count as new because I've had it for a week) I've found an entirely new summery outfit I completely love, using clothes I already owned.
Dungaree Playsuit : Warehouse. Blouse : c/o French Connection. Bag : Jane Shilton. Shoes : Next. Belt : ASOS. Earrings : H&M. Watch : Michael Kors.
love you style so much xo

This is such a nice outfit! I know what you mean - I need to look into my wardrobe rather than keep buying things! x
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with the buying new clothes thing- I have 2 wardrobes and a chest full of clothes but if I see something I like I just decide to buy it anyway even if I don't need it! It's a hard life xx
ReplyDeleteBut it's easy for you because all of your clothes are so lovely; you're my favorite blogger by the way, your outfits are so timeless!
Bright and Dandy
Love it! I totally agree that you can always re-invent an outfit with paring it with different articles of clothing in your closet! The smart look is so cute!
