New Years Style Resolutions: Buy what suits my life

We are bombarded by pictures of celebrities in ball gowns and yet who wears a couture gown to the office? Or to a play group?

It doesn’t stop there. I am always looking at more professional clothes when I shop at old haunts and then have to pull back as I realize that doesn’t work for my life right now.

So that is my last resolution. Buy for now. Buy what fits my body now. Buy what I will wear now. I am not going to buy anything that is going to sit in my closet because it’s not a good fit, it is too fancy or too out there. In fact if I don’t wear something right after buying it I will have to start seriously considering returing it – because if I am not excited to wear it now, will I be later?

Sure I am going to have events that I need to go to; but I can shop for them when I know I am going, not just in case.

This is especially true for shoes.

What do you tend to buy that doesn’t quite fit your lifestyle at the moment?
