last hurrah

My 30’s went out with a bang (and a bunch of wigs).  I feel truly celebrated.

And on that note, I am going to pause on this lovely clothing blog.  I’ve enjoyed the challenge of thinking of new ways to share my thoughts.  I like clothes so it was easy and fun to do.  I want to keep writing in some way, but no longer in this fashion (pun!).

There is plenty still to discuss.  I have my path of reducing my closet down to 33 items (spoiler alert… it will never happen).  I just learned about a thing called a “scuba skirt.”  Have I talked about my excessive cadre of leg warmers? My hatred of fur vests?  This skirt that I am planning to make from an old dress?  Have I shared with you my opinion on what it means to dress professional and why integrity should be more important than putting yourself in tight, strange clothing in order to “dress to impress”?
A big hug out to Katie and Beth who originally started this blog and then asked to have me join.  Unfortunately, their wonderful contributions trickled down as my inspirations kept going. 
Thank you readers for checking me out (literally and figuratively) over these years.  I feel that I have accomplished something.  We now all agree that black does not belong with navy blue, that white socks are rarely a good idea and that patterns can be amazing.  And, it made it worth all my effort when a friend told me that I inspired her to think twice about what she was wearing.  She changed into something more colorful.  I consider that a win.
