Day 4 of the very first WIW round I did in 2011 was when I, with great trepidation, introduced my red dress to the community. I say that because I bought it much before I started consulting the community about my purchases. I was hoping it would get positive comments.
Well, a lot of red dress love later on this and subsequent WIWs I snatched its purple sibling (worn in 2012 outfit) because I knew that one too would be a workhorse and it was a no brainer. I still wonder whether I should have pounced when the cobalt version appeared in the shops too, but a combination of trying to be sensible finances-wise (the dresses were the most expensive items I bough by then) and my still undiscovered love for the beautiful shade of blue I passed that one.
Fast forward to this day and age, both red and purple dresses are going strong, getting a lot of wear, not showing signs of tear and fill me with that great feeling of wishing to hug my wardrobe.
ETA: Btw, all my 2011 and 2012 outfits were worn to the office, hence rather dressed up looks and different footwear in most of the old outfits. At this stage of my life things are a lot more casual.
The verdict for Day 4?
