Recently it's become apparent to me that while I had thought I was done with my wardrobe sculpting enough to move on to the shopping phase, this is in fact not true. So, I've been tweaking it a bit more. I've changed the silhouettes (no more tucked in tops, no more awkwardly styled shirts), and reworked my list of "uniforms". Basically I've taken what I like and turned it into something more practical. I need to be able to layer. I don't want tons of colors. I like neutrals; patterns can get tiresome. I don't want to be overly influenced by what I have in my closet.
What I've come up with is the following:
Dresses include sweater dresses and tunics to some extent. Bottoms include shorts, skirts, pants, and leggings. Tops include button downs, blouses, tees, and tanks, as well as some tunics. Cardigans and sweaters are pretty self explanatory.
I've focused more on neutrals mostly black and white, with some grey and navy, and to a lesser extent cream, baby pink, and browns. Mustard and Ruby are my accent colors. Patterns are pretty basic with lots of negative space. Bottoms are almost exclusively solid colored. My updated "Core Wardrobe" board reflects this, while my "Fashion Inspiration" board reflects more of the original intent of the project.
Mostly what's changed is my summer wardrobe, although I've removed all of the blue from my nonwork winter wardrobe as well. I've also added practical shoes, for all the walking I do, as well as weather appropriate clothing. To see the original plan I had mapped out click here. The new plan is laid out below based on item category instead of season.
