Left of my twenties. A lot has changed in the last few years and I'm sure more changes are in store. Join me on the rest of my journey to thirty!

Prepare yourself for my closet photo!
I moved a while back and ended up taking all of my large-one-bedroom-apartment's-worth of furniture and belongings and putting them, in addition to myself and my two cats, in an area the size of a bedroom and a small den....things are a wee bit tight....and piled. I keep trying to unpack some things, but don't know where to put them so I end up moving boxes that were stacked in one end of the room to a different part of the room. Needless to say, no progress has been made.
When Pinteresting I came across J's Everyday Fashion, a site with hundreds of outfit inspirations! Now, you may be stylish and creative by nature, but I couldn't be creative if my life depended on it, which is why this site was such a gold mine for my style-less self! The idea behind J's site is to see how far a small monthly fashion budget can stretch, how current fashion trends can be applied to your style and life in a practical way, and how creative one can get with the clothes and accessorizes one already has. Brilliant!
Here are a couple of outfits J put together. She also has a fb page with over 400 outfit inspirations, click here to view J's Everyday Fashion Facebook page
Now, if you have taken the time to peruse J's website and fb page, check out this YouTube video of her closet. I cannot believe she has made the 400+ ensembles with such little clothing!
And this is a pic of my closet currently....
Cringe!!! Honestly, I am NOT a hoarder! Some of my belongings such as my kitchen stuff etc. will be living in my "den" otherwise known as my "closet" with my extra furniture. Here, I pulled out the "to-unpack" boxes in order to unpack the unpack boxes, but once I started to unpack the boxes I didn't know where to put all of the stuff. This is not my forte. But...I am motivated by J to get my butt in gear and go through all of my clothing, seeing what smokin' outfits I can create. As J says on her website,"Style and creativity can be learned. Exercise it like you would any other muscle." There is still hope for me yet!
