(Fluevog Fannie... :) )So as I've gotten older, I seem to be trying to embrace minimalism more and more often. I would very much like to be one of those people with a tiny closet-- but everything in it looks fantastic and fits perfectly.
Hard to do when you're shopping on a Target budget. I've been doing some spring cleaning by removing pieces I just haven't worn and allowing myself to keep weirdly special items like a sweater that's 25 or so years old (my husband's first birthday present to me, horribly stretched out now but still warm and cozy in the winter).
Lots of authors-- Bobbi Brown, Tim Gunn, et. al, seem to have an idea as to what makes a perfect "mini" wardrobe. I hit a wall when I reach dressier clothing. I need one very staid pantsuit for special events at work (otherwise casual is very appropriate), but I really only have two easy to wear dresses-- an old J Crew Lisa that's in navy and a grey dress that has some unfortunate connotations for me as I've worn it to a few too many funerals in the past couple of years.
I'd like to be one of those people who owns just one pair of sandals-- but they're Fluevogs or something similarly cool.
