Rule of Thumb

A good rule of thumb for your Wish List is to actually write /journal those items
in your closet ,which are your favorite ....go-to....most wearable items ..
Then ask yourself why ????? and more than likely is because they may you
look good,,,feel good...and you receive compliments everytime you adorn the
item. Whether it is a jacket ,fabulous one of a kind sweater ..or the pair of shoes
you hope that will never wear out ,actually assess why ??? Most of your
answers will probably fall in the category of high quality fabric ,fantastic fit ,
classic cut to adorn your frame and it compliments at least 4-5 items in your closet .
These are the modules that you want to work from in developing your wardrobe .
Quite honestly ,I had been finding that many jackets are being cut too narrow in the
arm /shoulder . Nothing is worse than feeling like if you stretch too high up on the shelf
that you rip out all seams....So in doing so...my alternate has been some great sweater/
jacket types that still serve the purpose .
If you are in the beginning stages of formulating your closet .....begin with the basic colors ,
black ,navy, tan ,white ...then look @ your 'pop' color to accent your wardrobe throughout the year !!! Yes ,year .When you find yourselves waking up late for work ,etc..the basics will always
fall in place magically ! I have a array of colors with basics for vacationing in hot weather that
keeps me to one suitcase whether it is for a 3 day fling or a week relaxing in the sun .Then I have
room in my suitcase to purchase that significant piece ..then I go for it !!!!!!
Natural fabrics.........last ,last ,last...cashmeres,cotton,linens, double face wools.......etc
The only reason I say journal is to keep you on track and when you are faced with that
encouraging sales person to buy that incredible item ...question yourself and say is this
a possible garage sale item ????????????????
