Out With The Old ..In With The New

As we all know I am trying to sort out my fashion and re-design my wardrobe... I am really excited about this and know it's going to be a challenge but have found a couple of helpful little things to get me on my way. I think the challenges I am facing are:
  • Not wearing things that are my "fat" clothes
  • Not wearing things that make me feel like my old self (i.e party lifestyle, fat, not happy)
  • Really thinking about how I feel in the clothes
  • Making really wise choices to if the items truly suit me
  • Making use of the clothes I currently have
I know that clothes have a big impact on to how I feel and can either make me feel AMAZING or can make me feel horrendous. I know exactly what style I want and know that it will suit me BUT what I want to do is learn about my style as although I know what style I want from pictures and things it's easier to look at an outfit that has been put together than actually putting one together yourself. So for the next few months I am going to do my best to not buy many clothes and anything I buy I want them to be a staple part of my wardrobe so perhaps shoes, accessories, or timeless tops etc.. Another reason for not wanting to buy much is my figure will change and the style I want to have suits a smaller frame so don't want to waste money buying the style but putting it on a frame that isn't quite ready for it yet...




Anyway starting to ramble (I am very tired today)... I want to get to the stage that I can happily wear anything in my wardrobe and feel, confident and good in it and not be thinking OMG I have nothing to wear... my first task was to go through my wardrobe and see what I wanted to keep and what I didn't want to keep.. this is always hard... but I manged it and have got my wardrobe alot more organised.




Now some of you may think I am quite sad but I also found this app and it really helped and to be honest I am loving it...it's called "Stylish Girl" (I know that I sound like a teenager) and you can find it for the  iphone or Android...now it takes a little bit of dedication when you get it as you have to take photos of all your clothes but it basically helps you put an outfit together without having to try on all your clothes. It also allows you to save outfits and date when you wore outfits so you don't wear the same thing twice in a week (Blasphemous!) Now the other thing it allows you to do which I love is go shopping. So you can click on the different item you want to go shopping for, filter your search and it will basically search the whole of the Internet for what you are looking for. I think that this is amazing... as often I find that I shop in the same places and don't know where to look online. I know that there are millions of online retailers but if you don't know them how do you find them?! When you find an item you like you can click on it and it will take you directly to the retailer's website! The app will also keep you up to date with all fashion news and latest styles... I am loving it.
