WhAt To WeAr…♡

Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. I’m so happy to see you today my friend. Shall we have a little tea.




Happy Tuesday! Well, we are most definitely in the midst of summer. How is yours going so far? I’ve been having a wonderful one. Beach plans, lunch with friends plans, summer movies, mini day get-away plans….

Dear reader, I’m wondering if I can ask you a question? Thanks! Recently, I have been thinking that I might need to work on my summer wardrobe…and I wondered what guidelines you use to manage yours? (I hope that’s not too personal.) In other words, how do you evaluate your clothes, and decide what to keep? I’m not quite sure how/when it all happened….but, I think my current wardrobe is the size that most people take on vacation. (well, at least what I use to take on vacation)

I must admit that I’ve been doing an excellent job with cleaning out my closets. (ummm… no, I’m still not finished.)  I’m down to just a few “go to” outfits. I’m wearing a new summer outfit in the above photo. I like it. It is cute, comfortable, and I am easily able to mix and match it with a few other items. Want to hear something kind of funny? I use to have loads of clothes. .. but never seemed to have anything to wear.  And,  now with just a few outfits. .. well,  let’s just say,  “less can be more” (big smile)

Lately  I’ve sort of  been wondering just how many times I can get away with wearing this very cute outfit?(Grin) because, now that I’m not working…I find that I get by with fewer pieces, and can wear my favorite outfits many times.

                                                            Once,  twice. …hmmmm. ..

                        three? perhaps four…(maybe more) without anyone else noticing.
               

And, thank goodness for accessorizing. I have learned, that tweaking things just a little,  can make a huge difference. Also, thank goodness that I have  a nice variety of friends. … so they don’t see me in the same outfit twice. Well, perhaps you will notice, but I know you wouldn’t tell anyone. (wink) Actually, now that  I’m sort of thinking about it again. ..

Geezer…I just might be able to work this one “go to” outfit for the rest of summer. Now that’s what I mean by less is more. A true minimalist!  I’m finding out that today, more than ever…it’s more important that my clothes fit me well, and that I feel great in them…rather than how many there are. Which is why I make do with less variety!

All it takes is a little planning. So, for example I have a special event this week. Dinner, a concert with my husband, and friends.( who btw haven’t seen me in my new outfit.) So, guess what I’m planning to wear. …like I said,  all it takes its a little planning. ♡

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed your visit.  Have a lovely day sweet friend.

                                               Xoxo. ..

                                               Marcia

A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realize how blessed you really are.~anonymous
