Outfit: Step by Step

Filed in: Fashion, Outfits

school boy outfit red heels As a step in my treatment for fashion depression I went shopping. I was planning on returning one of the items as you know. Suddenly I realized something. There was this shirt that I had been looking at several times and liked but never bought - I could not live without this any longer. So I took the cardigan back and swapped it for the shirt. They only had one left that was two sizes too big. I thought it would never work, but it fit perfectly. Talk about luck!

It’s in a silk and cotton blend. It has a slight androgynous/school boy look. I love it. All of a sudden I had an outfit in my mind. I don’t know if my depression is cured for good, but at least it’s a step in the right direction.

The Cure For Fashion Depression

Filed in: Fashion, Shopping

PMS, bad weather, lack of money and the fact that I’m going back to school this week have left me with a slight case of fashion depression. I don’t really feel inspired in any way and I don’t feel like dressing nice. Today I am attempting to find a solution. Here’s my remedy:

  • Start the day with a spa treatment. Since I can’t afford doing this somewhere I take care of it my self.

  • Go shopping. Even the smallest item can make me see my whole wardrobe in a new perspective. I went for a boyfriend cardigan and a cape. I’m probably returning the cardigan but at least it got me back into the game.

  • Treat the wounds with a beer at noon. Drinking at that early hour can leave me feeling a little tipsy after just one beer. In addition I’ve heard it’s a good cure for PMS.

  • Read a fashion magazine.
  • Eat a killer dinner. In my case it’ll be rosemary chicken stuffed with a lemon in true Jamie Oliver style.

  • Spend time on a fun craft project. I’m making a rather fun scarf that I’ll share with you as soon as it’s done.

  • Watch a good movie. I’m planning to watch Delicatessen.
  • At the end of the day I’ll probably feel a whole lot better. Here’s the cape I got by the way, it has those cute little holes for your arms:
