double take

JUST a THOUGHT :: You may have noticed that my outfit posts sometimes feature many items  that I tend to wear over and over.  FACT: if I am in love with an item I will wear it over, and OVER until I (and you guys) get sick of it.  I have decided to add a little twist to my future outfit posts.  From now on, if possible I will try to feature one item worn at least two different ways, instead of boring you guys with a bunch of outfit post featuring the same item.  I always do most  of my thinking when I am in the shower, or when I am driving, in this case I was driving when I had a tadaa moment.  I,  like many other fashionistas out there cannot afford to buy an item and only wear it once, that is not the way my closet works.  So,  I figured that from now on I can show through my outfit posts how I try to maximize my not so extensive closet.  In a dream world I would have a closet filled with an endless amount of goodies, never having to repeat my outfits, buuuuuuuut I don't. So here it  goes.... my small and modest closet can also put up a good fight, that's what fashion is all about right, showcasing your style with what you have to work with! Hope you guys like the new little "twist" any thoughts on the idea?......okay now back to the outfit post ;)

 pueden haber notado que mis "outfits" a veces disponen de muchos artículos que uso una y otra vez. HECHO: si estoy enamorada de una cosa en particular me la pongo una, y otra vez hasta que yo (y ustedes) se enferman de ella.  He decidido añadir un pequeño giro a mis posts de "outfit". A partir de ahora, si es posible voy a tratar de hacer lost post que tengan por lo menos dos differentes looks con un mismo articulo. En lugar de aburrir los  con un montón de "post"  con el mismo artículo. Siempre hago la mayor parte de mis pensamiento cuando estoy banandome, o cuando estoy manejando, en este caso yo estaba conduciendo cuando tuve un momento de "tadaa". Yo, como muchas otros aficionadas a la moda  no pueden permitirse el lujo de comprar un artículo y sólo  usar lo una  sola vez, asi no es como funciona mi armario. Entonces, me imaginé que a partir de ahora puedo mostrar cómo trato de maximizar mi armario que no es tan extenso. En un mundo ideal yo tendría un armario lleno de un sinfín de cosas,  para no tener que repetir mis looks, peeero no es asi. Así que aquí va .... mi armario pequeño y modesto también puede poner una buena pelea, eso es de lo que se trata la moda o no? De mostrar tu estilo con lo que tiene que tienes! Espero que les guste el nuevo pequeño "giro" cualquier pensamiento o idea ?......

Well, we're not like Victoria Beckham who can afford wearing everything just once, actually I even can't imagine doing so, since I always buy items that I truly love and want to wear them over and over again! :o)
Your top is amazing!

Love the shirt, and love you remixed it. I think 90% of the fashion community is with you in terms of having to rewear things...I do it especially when I get something new that I love. Two pieces I bought this weekend have already been worn twice since Saturday and it's...Wednesday? Kind of sick haha..but that's the nature of fashion! Creativity in making old things new, and as someone who's read your blog for awhile, I know you definitely do an amazing job of that!

Love Alexandra

I think that you should wear your clothes more than once, I mean you buy what you love! Of course you want to wear your favourite tee/pants/shoes, why else would it be your favourite? :) My closet works this way too, but I'm not showing all my outfits, 'cause sometimes in the morning I have to rush to work and don't have time to think of the perfect outfit, I just throw something on.

I think you have a good idea with double take posts, it gives ideas how to combine my favourites on different ways so I can wear my favourites without boring everyone (and myself) :D
