Getting back in the swing of blogging is helping me out of my t-shirt and jeans rut! It feels good to get reacquainted with my closet and put some neglected pieces in rotation, like these J.Crew jogger-style pants I bought on clearance years ago that never see the light of day.
I have a bad habit of “saving” my clothes for hypothetical occasions, instead of wearing and enjoying them. For instance: I see a cute dress; I buy the cute dress; I tell myself the cute dress will be perfect for XYZ event; I don’t wear the cute dress to work because I may “ruin” it; the cute dress hangs in my closet, untouched, for two years.
New rule: WEAR ALL THE THINGS!

I love your nude heels. Can you share where they are from?

I absolutely love this look on you! I couldn’t help but laugh at your “saving clothes” logic… I am the EXACT same way. I recently cleaned my closet out & got rid of the items I had saved for too long that they actually went out of style!! Lolol

I love the fancy joggers *Heart Eye Emoji*
I do that as well, make a purchase with an event in mind & never wear the piece or never actually attend appropriate event. Silly us, lol.

Even though we’re million miles away, we’re so close to habbits on clothes!!!
It’s so nice you are back!

I can 100% relate to the ‘save new dress fo XYZ event’, I really need to follow your new rule as well – WEAR EVERYTHING lol
Erin's Notions
True story, I actually have a semi system set up where I don’t allow myself to wear something again until I have mostly rotated through everything else in the closet. I feel like it’s more me being anal than anything, but I tell myself it’s good because that way everything is getting equal love!

Man, I am the same way with new things of all kinds–notebooks, bags, clothes. What am I saving it for?! Ha. Those look great on you. Wear on, lady. Wear on.
