I've gotta catch a glimpse of these Warlocks..

And so the reform begins..

Yesterday, I spent a good chunk of the day going through my closets and my dresser drawers demoting and getting rid of old clothes. This is really a big step for me, as I have inherited my mother/father/grandmother/brother/almost everyone in my family..'s penchant for packratting.

Yes, I am, indeed, a collector, because you never know when something will come in handy, you know? Yesterday I had to fight with myself for a good 3 minutes over recycling some old, printed-out psych articles from a class I took last fall. And for some reason, I have saved all of my grocery receipts since February. I'm getting there, but I need help..

So, basically, I have decided to fully embrace the old adage, "out with the old, in with the new." It begins with style. I have always considered myself to have a good eye for style, but, due to a lack of funds, hectic schedule, and a little extra weight around my middle, many of my outfits are uninspired and, well, lazy. This will change. I have begun organizing my accessories (including shoes, hats, scarves, jewelry, glasses, etc.) and found that I really do have some good stuff, I just rarely see most of my fun possessions and then forget that they exist. So after blowing $95 on Target.com, hiding my hooded sweatshirts, and donating some of the items in my wardrobe that have been keeping me down, I am ready for a fresh start.

Inspired by some other fashion blogs, I may occasionally post some outfits in an attempt to keep myself honest and on track.
So, if you see me on the street looking anything less than super adorable (or gym ready), please, let me know.

  1. Ahhh Superbad quote. LOVE IT. You are cute and I sure hope you threw out those receipts. Or at least put them in an envelope or something.
