We all love you Facebook, but MUST you make it so damn hard to re-use an outfit? REALLY?
I find myself reluctant to post pics of my most fab attire, just because I know I will not get the opportunity to wear it again for some time. So I ask.... How long is long enough until an outfit can be repeated/reused/reworn?
To answer this, we need to take into account that there is only one Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Beyonce and Rihanna, and all of these women are ummmmmm WEALTHY and can afford to buy clothing to their hearts' desire.... LE SIGH! Not to mention the fact that they are given free clothing from various designers to rock out on a daily basis......HEY free advertising is awesome i say!
So until us mere mortals get this opportunity, I think its quite alright to rinse and reuse, once we follow the strategic rules.
Jeans: We all have our fav pair, so i say rock them til they rip! Change of tops, shoes, accessories no one will know the difference.
Shirts/Blouses/Tops: To combat this problem, try the same style in different colours. Why buy one? Buy one in every shade! :)
Dresses: Depending on whether it is a day/evening dress, this is a tricky one. Use yah common sense with this one girls, if you know you wore it last week to the club, lets not wear it out for a while hmmmmmm..
Shoes: WEAR THEM AS OFTEN AS YOU LIKE...... a broken in shoe is a comfortable one! It is not cute to go shoeless at any event!
Here's a trick: Try a 'uniform'.... My personal fav is the white wife beater n skinny jeans look. Buy 2 million wifebeaters, and rock them with your favourite jeans, shoes, accessories. No one can say you wore that already, because in reality it would be a new one. Then WOW them with a killer outfit every now and again.
Yes Facebook does make it quite difficult for us mere mortals, but in all honesty, Thank God for its accompanying wardrobe issues.
ReplyDeletePeople, get creative!!!!!!!!!!! you can reshop your wardrobe, just follow the cardinal rules (some previously mentioned by Socialite):
-Dont wear the same dress/top to the club every week.
- There are times when you need to borrow a signature accessory to complete that outfit just so. Please make sure that your friend didnt wear the same accessory the day before and take a portfolio's worth of facebook pics in it.
-Mix it up and change up the same dress/top with different accessories.
Tip: I like to find pieces that can do double duty. Can be dressed up for night and dressed down during the day.
Keep those fierce outfits coming ladies!!!!!
