Winter Wardrobe

So – although it's only officially winter on the 1st June, freezing temperatures have hit us and it's COLD! It's also time for me to go through my wardrobe, and get rid of some of the old stuff, hanging there! Like the old brown jacket which I haven't worn in 3 seasons – what am I hanging onto it for? Sure, it was good in its day, but it's not all that warm anymore and if I haven't worn it in so long, when am I? And 4 pairs of black pants? I don't even remember where they came from and certainly don't wear them all – they're taking up space! Out!

There are some classic pieces which are great for work, but seriously – I'm tired of the "fuddy duddy" look – it's time to brighten up my wardrobe and pull out some of those pretty scarves I've been hiding – pull out the red handbag I wanted so badly and have NEVER used! I want a pinafore – and a new black belt! Need to get my winter shoes re-heeled and polish up those boots!



 

… I need to sort out my jewelry box, and clean up the old silver, antique rings given to me by my Grandmother! It's time to freshen up! It's time to step out there feeling confident and sassy! And I don't need to go out and buy a whole lot of stuff! I've just got to be creative! Hold thumbs for me! Let's see if I can do it!

I got a lovely pinafore at Woollies. And if you look at my post today - I am also re-cycling lots of last season stuff.

A nice bright coat always brightens any outfit.

Patterned Scarves and hats too

I just received a note from our sponsored child in Africa and it mentioned how cold it is.

Use that red purse, I love it!
