When: a few weeks ago // Weather: decent and sunny // Real life: work
As much as I love the idea of having this perfectly edited wardrobe with a few high-quality basics and just a small(ish) collection of unique pieces that make me look impossibly chic all the time, I’m just not cut out for it. I like to shop, and I like to constantly rotate new things in and old things out (read more about my “rotating closet” mentality here).
But one nice thing about being a shopaholic is that I can forget about something I stuffed at the end of a rack (like a long vest), and when I rediscover it months later, it’s like it’s new again! And it feels even newer when mixed with the striped shirt and bright loafers I just bought.
I’m guessing sometime in the next 6-8 weeks, I’ll leave those loafers in a bag that I throw in a corner (did I mention I’m not that tidy?) and won’t touch again for a month. Then at some point I’ll be scouring every bag I own looking for tampons and I’ll find those loafers and be so excited. It’s the circle of life, folks. And it moves us all.

I love these shoes! Totally relate to “discovering” clothes you had forgotten. This morning I found a wool sweater in a suitcase I hadn’t used since Xmas. Forgot I had even bought it haha.
