Trying to add more color and polish to my wardrobe
Do you ever feel like you need to add more "Grown Up" pieces to your wardrobe? Well, that's me on a daily basis. I see people that are perfectly groomed, polished and dressed and I wonder "What time does one get up in the morning to achieve this?", "What products are they using?", "Where are they shopping", and the list goes on and on. Well I suppose it is baby steps, one piece at a time I am trying to add pretty pieces of jewelry, pretty flats, scarves, and textures to add more polish and sophistication to my wardrobe. It is crazy how much time I spend wondering if I will be under dressed, what others will be wearing, and what my next purchase should be- that will take my wardrobe to the "Next level"
I am so excited to meet all kinds of bloggers tomorrow at Blog Podium! Wonder what they'll be wearing...
Here are some fun things I picked up today.
Do you ever feel like this??
Funky ankle zip
Loved this zip element
Chunky bracelet, kind of like some of the ones I have seen at J. Crew
I spied these at Zara today
Ta-Da! Incredible sale- so exciting, another purchase for Japan! Can't wait to wear then when all of the slush is gone.
Up close & Personal
Always Stay Graceful, L.
I have to agree! I always feel like I don't put anywhere near the effort I should into my day-to-day look.
ReplyDeleteSooOOO...I am slowly acquiring a high-quality wardrobe that will take me through a few years from Club Monaco and the likes. I figure pay $100 for a silk top I will have for 5-6 years or $30 for a cheap shirt from forever 21 that will wear out in less than 1 season. Of course there is always room for a few trend pieces in the closet :)
Too funny, I wrote about the exact same thing this morning! Check it out

ReplyDeleteJocelyn says, It's the accessories that pull the outfit together". :-)
ReplyDeleteLove Jocelyn!!
ReplyDeleteshoes are killer!! hope to bump into you too!
ReplyDeleteMe too I was JUST looking at your blog!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Anela. I find I go back to my french connection and club monaco piece 5 years later and they still feel fresh and current.
ReplyDeleteOne rule I've made is not to buy cheap constume jewelry, because it downgrades outfits. Spend a little more on a few higher quality accessories that you LOVE and you will wear them for the rest of your life :) just my 2 cents
