One of the main reasons I started this style blog, other than wanting to have a little fun with my clothes and to be a
tiny bit more daring in my choices (yeah, I know...stop laughing imaginary people), was to truly dig into my closet and revisit some of the articles of clothing that I've neglected over time.
One of the treasures I recently discovered again that was deep (
I'm talking deep ya'll) within was this sweater from H&M a couple/few years back. To you, it might not be much of anything. You know, it's your typical preppy stripped sweater. To me, I still remember the vibrant splash of colours immediately jumping out in the store's display case and that I had to get it that. very. second. Of course, I put it down after a bit and haven't really worn it until, well...now.
One of my style goals this year is for sure to inject as many bright shades in as I can, whether it be clothes, accessories or shoes. It just does something for you mood...puts a little
ta, ta, ta in your step, a little energy in your system. Makes you feel a little more confident. I know that may sound a little silly (or a lot silly), but any little thing you can do to make your day a little happier...

Very pretty pictures! And I really like that sweater. It really does brighten up the outfit!
ReplyDeleteI think that's the nice thing about pulling items out from deep within your closet that you never wear and giving them one more chance. You could either discover a piece that you fall in love with again, or you've given a last chance to a piece you're ready to give away. I'd say you keep this one!

Aww..thank you!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you! I could actually stand to get rid of a ton of stuff from my closet, but I'm such a pack rat at heart. *Shrugs*
I happy to have found this sweater though!
