Renew.

My wardrobe isn't lacking clothes, it's just lacking clothes that I like! Over the years (those where fashion has been a meaningful part of my life) it seems I have wasted money that I didn't have to waste on unsightly and dull items of clothing, probably with the intention that they'd come back into fashion or that they'd do for summer days when it's too hot to even give a care. But half of my wardrobe is hardly ever touched, I found an All Saints skirt a while back with it's tag still intact - I didn't even realise I shopped there. I think what's in order is a major clearout but I find it so hard to part with my beloved garments. My theory is that if I had more money to spend, i'd be a lot more ruthless. But I don't have money to spend, so instead I shall renew these old clothes and make them look 100% better, i'm sure Viv would be impressed.

This morning, I went to see if I could salvage anything pretty to wear in my tiny hole-in-the-wall pathetic excuse for a wardrobe! Bunched in a corner, on a battered hanger sat a navy A-line skirt which I think I bought from Primark back in the day when I saw that shop as acceptable for basics. I completely forgot about this and forgot how cute it is - very 1940s - and it's not often I say that about things from P-P-P I can't bring myself round to say it. And this is precisely why I am against throwing out 'old' clothes. I dressed it up with my over-sized shades and a leopard print vest and to complete the 1940s military look I wore my army jacket (it's actually my friend's, and one day he'll get it back, promise)




I will try and post again soon, the amount of drafts in my post list is unbelievable, I start one thing, see something else to post, then forget about the previous post. My college fashion show that i'm organising with two of my friends is tomorrow night so i've been rushed of my feet the past couple of weeks but i'll be on here soon posting photos of the night and telling you all how fabulous it was and how proud I am of myself. I also have my English exam next week and i'm pooing myself, I need all the luck I can get. I apologise for my lame excuses?

I best get back to list making and then taking no notice of them lists. See you soon.
