My life = continual wardrobe therapy.
For week one, Wende has given us an agenda and an interview project. Read the agenda over there, I need to go finish up the laundry before biffing something and then reading an In Style magazine. Oh, and it all needs to be done before this weekend, when I am taking a two-day watercolor workshop, instead of hitting Nordstrom’s Semi-Annual Sale to spend the $81.59 that remains in my 2008 clothing budget. he hee.
Read the interview here:
Favorites
- Who is your candidate for “best dressed,” real or fictional? These kind of questions, as well as the next, are super hard for me. Perhaps I should come back to it in its own post.
- Is there anyone you’re tempted to see as a style icon, but you’d never dare dress that way? See above.
- What is your favorite garment/outfit ever? Aaah! Too much pressure! I have no idea, but I did and still do love my wedding dress. I could come back to this one too. 😉
- What is your current favorite garment? The sateen trench, I suppose.
- What would you wear if you could wear absolutely anything? What I’m wearing right now: jeans, pumas, and cashmere sweater.
- What would your favorite store be, if money were no object? And parking were free? Banana Republic. Or JCrew, if we had one. Or Washington Square (it’s nostalgic).
- Do you have a favorite store now? If so, why? If not, why not? Nordstrom Rack. Style (compatible with mine) and (reasonable, not bargain) price, without the overwhelming shopping experience.
- What’s your best fashion faux-pas story, now that the scars have healed? Hmmm. I’ve posted one or two of those on this blog …
Part Two to come.
my second scared of color post is up..want to give your input??
Thanks for letting me know. What fun!
Interesting questions.
1. Seriously? I love Angelina Jolie’s style. Simple, black-ish, always chic looking. Of course, I love to use that simple style as a backdrop for cool pendants, scarves and hats. I’ll have to think about some others.
2. One of my online sewing buddies. She lost over 75lbs and decided that she would sew herself a new wardrobe completely from vintage patterns. I LOVE IT! Granted, I’m not chicken, I would do similar. I just haven’t had the time or lost the weight. 😉
3. Three words: little. black. dress. Any flattering style, any flattering fabric. I am so there.
4. Current favorite is hard. I was hoping it would be my new orange polka dotted dress. It has issues. {sigh}
5. Anything? A comfy silk night gown, robe and fuzzy slippers! Throw on big ol’ apron and I’d be good to go! lol Silk and linen dresses with amazing retrol flavored wool cardigans.
6. Ann Taylor, J. Jill, Anthropologie, Maggie’s Organic and others of that style. Chic, organic (in multiple ways), great linen pieces, earthy but classic as well.
7. Nope no favorite.
8. uuum probably wearing rolled up straigh leg jeans ALL THE TIME in 8th grade. I don’t remember how I got them, but the only 3 pairs of jeans I had that year were straight legged. I hated them because they were tight over my calves and looked wierd around my ankles when I walked, so I rolled them up capri height! ooops. lol
Oh my — I’m honored to see this over here.
If it’s any comfort, I always end up revisiting my own questions about three weeks into the process…
