Satellite

I keep reading articles and blogs that go on and on about spring trends and figuring out your wardrobe and I'm getting a little bored with it. A lot of it is "pick one colour or colour palette and base your wardrobe around that" and basic wardrobe defining. That's boring. The idea of picking one colour to base your wardrobe around is too stifling for me.

This summer I really want to work with my wardrobe and wear everything. Mix and match things and reconstruct things that I can't integrate otherwise. I don't like thinking that I need need need "wardrobe staples" to have the perfect wardrobe and if I just buy that one thing my wardrobe will be complete. Ha! Unlikely. I've certainly tried, it's not that simple.

All I know is that I want to look put together and preferably not boring.

In the meantime, I think I would like to invest in some things that I feel could be useful to my wardrobe.
I like the idea of versatility. More bang for your buck. Choosing a colour is kind of hard though, because again I'm practical. I don't want to pick a colour that's too ridiculous, nor do I want to pick one that is especially boring. I like the navy, but the forest could be interesting as well. I guess I'll have to see it in person.

I'll let you know how this summer project goes.
