GET CREATIVE

“I have nothing to wear.”  YES, YOU DO.  

Some of us (hi, this girl) probably say this everyday when we look inside our closet trying to figure out what to wear.  But no more!  It’s time to start getting creative, ladies.  And don’t get me wrong, I love to shop and I love new clothes, I mean who doesn’t?  But, money really doesn’t grow on trees (so unforch.) And we probably aren’y really being as creative as we can be with old clothes because it takes some effort.  Search, contemplate, try on, take off, switch out, think about it, “Do I keep this? Should I donate it?”  It’s a lot of time and energy!

Both the pieces I’m wearing in this post are recycled (see here and here), I’ve worn them endlessly, but one day I was trying to figure out what to wear and I was getting so frustrated thinking, GOD I’ve worn all this stuff so much and everyone has already seen it multiple times (horrible I know), and something just clicked.  I put together these two pieces that I normally would have never thought to pair together, tied the shirt up, and I had an adorable, brand new, totally different outfit! You can’t imagine how many times I’ve worn it since then lol.  

I had a to do a post about it to show just how easy it is make totally new, and sometimes even cuter, outfits out of your present wardrobe and old clothing.  And don’t leave this for a morning when you’ve rolled out of bed late and have 5 minutes to get out the door.  Just take some time to go through your closet, clean it out, organize it, and plan just what you could use for what and how you can combine different items.  Get creative!!  Really think about all the different ways you can style each item of clothing.  I promise you, you’ll feel so much more organized, accomplished, prepared, and stylish 😉
