Anything you've decided you probably won't get to, this year?

Me, I've resigned myself to just getting comfortable, casual essentials lined up. Turns out, evolving to *my* style of city wear is lower on my priority list for this year than non-fashion projects are.

After Christmas, I returned the Prada ankle boots (delicious leather, fabulous form!) and perfect Kut bootcuts, because I'm putting on hold the search for the trench coat I'd need toward completing that sleek-confident-quality capsule, whatever the adjectives were. I'd rather have lighter backpacking gear, and before I attempt a longer trail I want to feel confident that bf's home and cars are sufficiently stocked for local emergency.

I'm not giving up on finding my style; I'm just going back to the baby-steps approach I joined YLF with, and accepting that it's a slow process. I'll still troll eBay for the perfect single-breasted Burberry, and I'll slowly keep exploring the sewing thing.

It's going to take work to figure out how to make comfortable black chinos and plain Fryes look as OK as possible. I'm giving myself permission to try youthful styles like Converse sneakers and worn jeans. New specs will happen, and a CYDWOQ or similar belt. But probably nothing dramatic.
