So you’re wanting to add jewellery…
Jewellery is such a weird thing. It can be ludicrously expensive or ridiculously cheap. It can be super luxe and indulgent or really personal and meaningful. Which is why it can be one of the trickier accessories to add to your wardrobe.
That’s if you even consider it as all…
Finally warm from the gentle hug of our tea (English breakfast, drop of milk, no sugar thanks!) we’d whittled down a collection of exciting looks to a palatable list. A slightly minimal aesthetic, with deep colours and hints of ‘cool’ peppered throughout. She was looking forward to the prospect of getting started. Then came the confession…
Everyone thinks my wardrobe is amazing. But truth be told, it’s a work in progress.. I guess like many peoples’ wardrobes. I view it as a project. But one that’s never finished. It’s forever evolving.
While recently browsing a Facebook community group I saw a post from someone asking how to switch a wardrobe from summer to Autumn. I was about to write a reply but thought it’d be a good opportunity to share this on the blog.
Essentially, it’s a pretty simple concept and one you might expect; you take out all the clothes that are deemed ‘summer clothes’ and then take all the clothes that are autumn clothes and put them in your wardrobe.
Do you ever just look at your wardrobe and think I’ve got too many clothes?
Well, recently that happened to me.
I wouldn’t describe my wardrobe as fit to burst, however, it was starting to get a little bit bloated and I knew I had clothes that hadn’t seen the light of day for quite a while. I needed to do a ‘me’ on my own wardrobe. Once I’d decided which pieces to get rid of I faced a bit of a dilemma.
The clothes you’re wearing right now tell a story. Do me a favour, take your top and turn the hem over. Look at the seams. Another human’s hands have touched those. If they could talk what would they say? How would they describe the conditions they were produced under? What would they say about the person who created them? About their pay or rights? How about the fabric, where does it come from? How has dye that’s been used impacted the local environment?
