improve my wardrobe

ok i consider this done because i have definitely improve the ol’ wardrobe with the following:
~ a cape. yes, a cape. it is wool (i think) and grey.
~ stripe-y rainboots from Target. 20$!
~ 2 pairs of comphy heels, one brown/one black
~ some shirts i can wear to work.
~ some new/better lounge and sleep wear.
~ a closet in my new place to hang it all.

little has been done on this front. but i am moving in the next month and my new place has a huge walk in closet!!!

no excuses now! :)

a friend has been giving me clothes that she doesnt fit into anymore. she and i have simular tastes, so it is working out pretty well for me.

so people used to have one or two outfits. im talking renaissance or victorian or cowboy days. you might even know someone by their outfit. (kind of like we might know someone by their car, ‘he drives a black mini’) someone might say, ‘she is the one with that lovely blue taffeta gown with the lovely emboidered flowers around the collar and the lace ruffles.
im not suggesting that i will throw out all my clothes and just wear one thing everyday.

this is what im getting at: i will now buy clothes with the idea in mind that someone might identify me using those clothes as a focal point.
i will aim for phrases like:
‘she is the one with that awesome scarf’
’... with those great flowing skirts’
’... who always wears that floral jacket with the cool buttons’

this will be new for me. but eventually i may even relegate all the clothes i wear casually now to ‘dog park clothes’ status. meaning they can get dirty and i dont really mind.

i will spend 1 hour a week (to start) improving my wardrobe. this could be shopping, creating new combos of outfits, organizing, reparing, discussing, listing, etc.
when will i start doing this? not sure yet.
