So I am constlantly buying new clothes. It seems better at the time because I'm and not paying the price of high-end or designer labels. However, I dont have any real staples or go-tos, nothing that I've had since I was a teenager. Part of that can be attributed to my dramatic weight flucuations that happen pretty much every year. But the rest of it is just me being lazy. I have to do better... It seems like you ladies shop right and I shop wrong. :-( I buy cheaper knock-offs that dont last very long.

It's sad! I also have these brown leather Camper flats (not the traditional Camper style, but more dressy/officey) that I wear with everything. I ride my bike in them, wear them in the rain, run around in mud with them, etc. I had to get them re-soled and cleaned and they look new now. I love them! I actually have a lot of clothes that I wear the shit out of for years and years, but I finally got rid of a lot of those when I moved to Israel. I did keep this crazy blue/purple/orange-striped Peruvian-looking jacket that I wore with everything for all of college. It is looking very sad but I always get compliments on it, even from people who have seen me wearing it around to everything ever for years and years. I also kept all three of my pink cardigans, one of which is from 8th grade (one of those short half-cardigans that only goes past your boobs).

Crew jacket on super-sale, and I've been wearing it constantly: http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Shop_By_Category/jacketsouterwear/jacketsouterwear/PRDOVR~98824/99101575780/98824.jsp. It's a little more polished than my usual jeans-and-hoodies combo, and it makes any outfit look put-together! I also rediscovered my Fluevog boots a little less than a year ago. I bought them in high school, wore them for a couple years and then forgot about them until my sister bought the exact same pair! But they're perfect, like Docs but with cute stitching: http://www.fluevog.com/code/?w=attribute%3AUnisex&pp=3&view=detail&p=26&colourID=30 My favorite piece of clothing from my past? Definitely my lavender corduroy Oshkosh overalls from age 3. Hands down. I got this J.

And I am crazy about the Tano bag. I don't even think I have anything like this - things I love so much and always turn to. God you wear clothes so well. And I am crazy about the Tano bag.

I can wear them year round- just the dress and sandals in the warmer months and textured tights with a patterned scarf (another go to) and long cardigan (yet another go to) in the cooler months. I can also dress it up or down. I also have this adorable brown empire waist coat from Forever 21. The design of it is way beyond typical Forever 21. I will wear that thing til to falls apart. I also collect flats. Im 5'10 so always wearing heels is a bit too much for me. I wear my flats until I wear holes in the heels. I also have a permanent tan on my feet from always wearing flats without socks I LOVE your riding boots! I really want a pair like those but its hard to find because I have large calves I like to buy plain cotton jersey dresses.
