WIW: Classic Style & Style Goals

One good thing about the move in November is that I have really sorted through my wardrobe! My Style/Purchasing Goals for 2019, based on the clear out, are as follows:

1. I do not need any more pairs of jeans.
2. I do not need any more hoodies.
3. I do not need any more geeky tees.
4. I do not need any more jeans.
5. Outerwear and shoes/boots will need going through but I am unlikely to need any more in these collections [Minor amendment - I have two pairs of boots (the ones I wore on my camping trip) which are sadly reaching the end of their lives and for which I need the prefect replacement. And I'm prepared to wait until that perfect replacement turns up before retiring/replacing them!]
6. I do not need any more geeky tees - except if somebody buys me one off my wishlist as a gift!
7. I do not need any more jeans!

Pics #1 & #2 are of the last shopping trip before Christmas. and Pics #3, #4, and #5 are from today. The plaid shirt in #5 did wind up coming home with me from our local charity shop, although it's a half-size too small. It'll be great in late spring to early autumn, worn open over a camisole and jeans.

Ha. I have a plaid shirt too where the wrists are too small, and I also got it anyways because it was so cute! It was like $5...

Thanks guys!

Cardiff girl, I may just have enough jeans! When sorting the moved clothes, I made a pile of jeans and, not counting the 3 pairs of skinnies I bought over the summer, I have over 15 pairs! I've already marked one pair for discard (faded black with diamonte on the back pockets - nice, but too short to be properly dressy!), plus the 2 lightwash pairs that have picked up too many stains to be truly classed as 'good'.
Of course, I pretty much live in jeans, so they do all get worn!

The photo bomber is DD, who will be 10 soon and has Definite Opinions on her wardrobe already! Jeans, or in fact any trousers (including currently leggings) are not welcome, and the outfit attached is her current go-to!

Rachylou, this one is tight across the tummy (baby weight from DD I haven't lost!) and across the boobage, which I was expecting. It's a men's Small, which usually only fits me in a forgiving fabric, so the fact I managed to zip it up is amazing!

Thanks Barbara Diane! One good aspect of moving was that I had to seriously organise/declutter my wardrobe, which desperately needed it!

You know what you have , you know what you don’t need , you know what you are willing to wait for ! Impressive!
Bravo, I should be this focused:)

Nothing like a move to inspire us to sort and organize! You have a good grasp of what you do and don’t need this year, which will really help focus your shopping. I agree that your jeans look great on you.

And I love DD’s shirt.

You made me laugh about the jeans! Well, at least if any wear out, you'll be in a good situation.

You look amazing in purple.
