I am not a fashionista, but I still wanna look my best in my secondhand, hole-y perma-outfit πŸ˜‚ I must be the only person moving across the world prioritizing secondhand clothes because reasons 🫠 I am trying to let go of the ones with holes πŸ˜‚

Seriously though, all the little decisions of outfits tire me, but if every single color I own feels and looks good on me, then I can grab anything, even if it is only daily t-shirts. And many of the colors are ones I already gravitate towards, but I like that there are new ones that I can now embrace without second guessing if they look good. And and lol, this helps me make some decisions about what to pare down.

So in the complexity, it makes it simpler...welcome to my mind πŸ˜‚

I get it. It's like if it all goes together and looks good, it seems overwhelming it's actually less work in the end. I can see where it would make it quick and easy to pare down your current wardrobe, just grab the colors and run with it.

This way you can also just grab the same top in different colors when you find something you like.

My goal is to be able to close my eyes and pick out an outfit πŸ˜‚

Amen to that. There is a method to the madness πŸ˜‚. Aaaaannnnnd it'll keep you from just wearing black all the time like me 😬.

If I could pull it off well, then I totally would though! Rock it if you can.

πŸ˜‚ I've never had complaints from the mister about it.

This would be really useful! Helpful when buying a new thing and when releasing the existing old.

I’ve never thought to do this but i can see it could potentially save time and money.

And lol I am definitely not soft autumn. If I wear cream or off white I have people come up to me asking if I’m unwell. It makes me look physically ill! 😣 πŸ˜‚

I also have a sage green top which I love the style and colour but I can’t seem to get it to work for me… and now I know why!! Thanks heaps for posting this!

Yes! It makes so much more of my closet make sense. I went down this rabbit hole a couple of months ago and guessed Soft Autumn, but I wanted confirmation before I got rid of stuff lol.

πŸ˜‚ You might be more a winter or summer, maybe? πŸ€”

The makeup swatches were super helpful. I suck at picking that out, especially blush and lipstick! And I refuse to own more than three lipsticks so I really! need them to look good πŸ˜‚

I vaguely remember a hairdresser once telling me I could get away with both summer and winter but I didn’t really know what colours they were and I forgot all about it.

Makeup swatches would be super helpful. I suck at anything like that. My makeup is very basic.

Except that I own lipsticks like they are given away for free! Most of which I don’t wear because I can’t colour match them properly with an outfit πŸ€¦πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Yeah, I struggle with these things, too. I just wanna know what works, only own that, and think about it as little as possible beyond that. The free stuff is great, and now you will know what to toss and maybe how to incorporate the rest.

The feminine urge to be girly, but like efficiently and frugally soπŸ€πŸ˜‚

Yes!!

Girly, efficient and frugal! Love it πŸ’œπŸ€

New mantra incoming!!!πŸ˜‚πŸ’œ

Love it! πŸ’…πŸ§šβ€β™‚οΈπŸ₯³

One last thing, if you do wanna go down the rabbit hole, I found her at the end. Save you some workπŸ˜‚ her IG gives so many examples and you easily get a feel for it πŸ€
