What's your current wardrobe obsessions?
Permalink Closed


When I was deciding what to bring on a recent long weekend trip, I realized that my closet seems to have an obsession with stripes this season (it's not me, it's my closet, I swear. wink.gif) Striped t-shirts & tanks.   Striped cotton dresses.  Pinstripe shirts.  Even a striped jersey blazer.  My pinerest fashion board seems to have caught the same bug as my closet too.

OK, I'll admit it.  My name is Boots and I'm a stripe- coholic. 

 

What's your current wardrobe obsession?

Oh man, I've pretty much been wearing jeans and t-shirts and tanks non-stop. And....I don't want to stop! I was so proud of myself when I busted out of this rut a few years ago and now I'm back.

Wardrobe obsession: t-shirts that will resist belly holes. Not very exciting, I know, but it must be done. 

The Gap Tshirts I complained about (the "unfashionable" ones) turned out to be much cuter than I expected. They must have changed the cut since the last time I bought them (thank goodness!). They're very soft, and they should hold up against the stupid holes.

Also, I used the American Apparel store credit to buy some of their Tri-blend t's. Those I know will last forever. They're good looking and soft. Onto the next obsession...

Dresses. All shapes length and colors but dresses. Especially in the summer. I can go for weeks without wearing anything else!

Anything that fits and makes me look thinner. In other words, I've put on some weight. My new favorite clothes should be workout clothes.

 HA!

 

Not that I've been able to shop much but I'd say I'm almost digging that hi/lo look and I've been into maxi dresses lately.

Nothing new here -- cardigans, cowl/drape-neck anything, animal prints. A drape-neck animal print cardigan would probably give me a clothesgasm.

When I read the title of the thread my first thought was stripes. Then I read the first post and realized it was worse than I thought. I have purchased at least three striped dresses this season but already had a few. I have also purchased striped button shirts (a few BB ones), and a seersucker pantsuit. I hadn't even been thinking about vertical stripes until I read the thread.

I have also purchased at least half a dozen dresses lately. I returned one yesterday that I had purchased last weekend and came home with three others - one was striped. I find dresses are particularly easy in summer when tights aren't needed. Many of the ones I have purchased this year will work at least for fall and quite a few into winter with layering so I think they were good choices.

 

ETA:  I realized after I posted that I am also obsessing about silk button shirts with a loose drapy feel.  I have purchase three or four of them already and love them with shorts, pants, or suits.

I have one that I wear as a strapless dress (belted) and it gets so so so many compliments.

I bought a colbalt blue pair of cropped skinny trousers from Target in the spring, and I love them! They attract lint and hair like crazy, but I have worn them a lot more than I thought I would. I almost didn't get them in fact.

Got another top in Anthropologie on sale & when I brought it home I realized: I kept buying all the navy color tops & was constantly returning to sailor stripes...

1) Peplum tops- always on the lookout for more minimalist/toned down iterations - wearing out a top i got from zara

2) Charles Philip Shanghai- have not bought my first pair yet (waiting for a good price) - but i know I will start collecting colors

Here's another one.  I bought these skirts in April and have worn them each at least once a week since then.  I have about 6 other skirts sitting in my closet wondering why I don't even call them anymore...confuse

Got a new one:

I am obsessed with the color periwinkle. I think it looks good on me, and it's just a pleasing color. I would love to find a bikini in it for next year.

Kind of a hard color to find unless I'm looking for pyjamas or yoga wear. :-/
