When a Basic T-Shirt Becomes a Big Decision (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I have nine slots left in my low buy for this year. Nine. With about three months still to go, that’s three items a month, which should leave me plenty of room to buy the things I actually need. And yet I’ve been hesitating over a white long-sleeve t-shirt. Not because I don’t need one. I do. My current one has developed some mysterious stains that I haven’t been able to get out. They aren’t particularly visible, so I still wear it when layering something over it, beacuse it makes some of my oth
Reviewing My Style Goals (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’ve been wanting to review the style goals I set at the beginning of the year, and that's when I realised I only remember two of them.Three goals shouldn’t be that difficult to keep track of, should they? Yet the only ones I can recall are that I wanted at least 10% of my wardrobe to be secondhand by the end of the year and that every new purchase should be a hell, yes!The third one?

Pink isn’t a colour I’m usually drawn to,
The Unexpected Sign My Wardrobe Is Changing (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Let me start by saying I’m not a skirt person.I used to wear skirts and dresses occasionally, but right now I don’t own a single one, and I haven’t really missed them. So it’s safe to say I wasn’t looking for a skirt.But while shopping with my sister, I came across a full-length A-line nylon skirt, and for some reason I was intrigued.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uMJK!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post
