I have nothing to wear...

Is it me, or do we all have moments where we find ourselves standing in our closets, overstuffed with clothes, accessories, pashminas, shoes, jewelry, etc and feel like we have nothing to wear? It comes in spurts for me and lately I've been feeling pretty good about my wares. Until this morning, when I stood in my closet wrapped in a towel rushing to get ready for work. I was frozen and was lacking inspiration and the creativity that was needed to assemble an outfit for work. Typically, I enjoy taking the time to mix and match pieces and create a new look. However this morning, I felt like everything staring back at me was dull, boring and lifeless. It is times like these when I start to plan my next shopping spree or online search to help inject some funk and life into my wardrobe again.

Instead, due to this God-forsaken fashion fast, I can only spend time (and no money) in one place- my closet. Sometimes if I'm having a momentary lapse in creativity, I will open the nearest fashion magazine to get inspired and this will usually jump start my creative juices. Yet today I felt annoyed. I took my annoyance to a new level and gave up. I put on a  light blue serious looking Brooks Brothers button up shirt, brown pants and  flats. I decided, in that brief moment, that putting together a unique outfit wasn't a priority and really, who cares! I proceeded to grab my bags and then when I was about to leave my house,  I turned around, ran into my closet and threw on a snakeskin belt! Who was I kidding? I do care!

You see, with just a little effort, and sometimes hitting a fashion wall, I am finding that I CAN make do. I mean, what other option do I have? I'm no quitter!

One day at a time.
