I’ve been making a mammoth effort to save money lately. Apart
from a pair of knee high boots I thrifted for €8 and a reworked top from Nine
Crows, I haven’t bought new clothes or shoes since January. This has required
iron will and rigid self-discipline. Don’t get me wrong; I haven’t denied
myself lipstick or mascara, life is hard enough without the occasional treat, but
they’re always from budget brands. A wardrobe shake-up, I featured my first
one here, was needed to keep me on the straight and narrow. This involves sorting
through all your clothes and removing anything you don’t love. Drop the unloved
items to your local charity shop and put the cherished pieces back in your
wardrobe - but not in the same place. Yes, shuffle them around! You’ll be amazed
at how many new outfits you’ll create by doing this. I unearthed this four year
old shirt and paired it with this skirt, one of my last purchases in January,
for a 1960s style dolly bird look.
Shirt – Asos
