The last few years, I have somehow lost myself. She kind of hid a bit, because she i am a bit shy, but then when my marriage was really bad and my ex was falling in love with someone he worked with, she really spent a lot of time changing and trying to change into something else. Then once I was single, she had a little bit of a resurrgence – or at least a faux resurrgence – and she was there again. Looking back, merely thinking that I was different and unique because I wore my teal cowboy boots while everyone else wore heels, does not a resurrgence make.
So in 2009 she is coming back – the real me. In every part of my life but also in my outer style. I am excited about this. I have cleaned my wardrobe out and got rid of a lot of the periffery but need to rebuild based on things I love….which are:
the fifties
anything vintage actually
hair accessories
brooches and cuffs
butterflies and birds
sophisticated style
ballet flats
and one day my beautiful wedge heels I bought for my wedding but which weren’t worn because I decided my feet were happier unencumbered.
My beautiful beautiful a line dress with the ballerinas printed along the bottom. I feel beautiful and exotic and myself when I wear this dress. It was expensive, but it is me and mine and everyone loves it and when I wear it I feel so confident. More pieces like that would be amazing.
I also want to be able to see each item in my wardrobe and am now a big believer in one piece in, another out…
