WARDROBE REHAB!

My closet just went through a major overhaul! I got rid of tons of clothes and shoes that haven't been worn in a long time along with items pieces that feel outdated.

Look at this mess!
A few tips for cleaning out your closet:
1. If you haven't worn it for at-least 6-8 months get rid of it because more than likely you will never wear it.
2. Less is more...
- Spend more on basics because those will be in your wardrobe longer.
- Spend less on trendier items, once that season is over it will be sitting in your closet taking up space.
3. Organize by color or category.
- I tend to organize by both:
Categorized by clothing item (shirts, jackets, etc.) in one section and color coordinated, it looks prettier.
4. Donate! Someone out there needs that jacket you haven't worn more than you.
5. If it's not flattering on you either take it to the seamstress or give it away.

Here's an after of my closet...

We are coming into another season soon and you are going to be purchasing new shoes and clothes, might as well do some cleaning out and make room for the items to come!

FRESHEN UP FOR SUMMER

Some amazing pieces to freshen up your Summer wardrobe...
Summer fits

1. No-Sleeve Blazer: This is an awesome piece to add in for summer so that you can easily pull together any outfit without wearing a regular blazer that will have you sweating in seconds!
2. Beaded Skirts: This trend is one that I find easy to pull off with just a simple t-shirt or tank. Swap day-time flats for heels and you can switch from day to night.
3. Nude Sandal Heels: Elongates your legs... enough said.
4. Overalls: great piece to throw on and go shopping or to the beach.
5. Sneaker Wedges: STAPLE!
6. FLORAL FLORAL FLORAL
7. Jean Skirt: They have made a come-back!
8. Bright Colored Heels: Simple touch to any plain outfit.
9. Aviators! So lightweight and they look amazing in these new colored lens'.
10. 3.1 Phillip Lim Medium Pashli Satchel - wish list :)
11. Rose Gold Watch: A change from the typical silver and gold.

SPRING OOTD

My floral blazer is becoming a serious favorite of mine. This gorgeous piece makes any dull or basic outfit look amazing. The weather has been slowly progressing into the high 80's and I couldn't be happier! We've had an extremely long and brutal winter in NYC and I am glad it's over.

MIXING YOUR NEW PIECES WITH OLD ONES

Recently I did a post on my current fashion lusts and while shopping over the past few weeks I ended up picking up a few pieces that are very similar to what I had wanted.

The two pieces I found in particular that I am very happy with are this military inspired jacket with distressed studding and this stark white three-quarter length buttoned blouse, both from h&m.
Some extra bits that have been favorites of mine are the neon necklace photographed above which is also from h&m, the bracelets both gold and silver, and my vintage Gucci bag that I found at a thrift shop.

In general I've been loving mixing metals, military pieces mixed with delicates and throwing in some old pieces with new ones.
