Fashion sustainability

I am sure many of us have closets , drawers overflowing with clothes That no longer fit or are outdated . So do we do buy more ?.

Read this report on how we can change our shopping habits and our wardrobe needs only 74 pieces . That we should only buy five new pieces in the year. I haven’t counted the number of pieces in my closet . But I can say I have really cut back on my purchases. Also, some of my items are more then ten years old . Well made and classic styles. So can wear them years.

For myself I have limited my purchases , not for financial reasons but thinking how many things do I really need? I Love clothes ! But I realized I don’t need as much.

I just recently bought a new dress and a blazer. The blazer is cream color which I didn’t have and linen ;so was ideal for spring summer wear. It can be worn with many other pieces, over jeans , denim dress, skirts slacks, multiple ways.

So was my only new purchase of the year . Thinking about substanibility

and the environment is one very important reason to limit one’s purchasing.

So is your closet overflowing, have you made more purchases? Cut back on your purchases, spent less?

CASUAL SUMMER LOOK//fashion , styling

Doing Denim I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable. For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short. I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days. Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it. Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets. There are so many ways to style a denim dress. A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck.

SPRING LOOK //Fashion , Style, Spring

Time for some color Finally the weather is warmer and can wear lighter clothes. I especially like to start the summer/spring with some color . One of my favorites is a colorful knit on I bought years ago , a Liz Clairborn design. It’s a piece that just say spring is here. After a long , cold winter of wearing mostly dark or muted shades it’s nice to bring out something bright a cheery.
