Can you believe I have had this top and pants for 15 years!!! And the cool thing is, I still love them both and they are now super on trend! The pants are a kind of culotte and they feel so great on.
I adore off the shoulder but ya know what I worry about: Will people think I am naked when I am driving? Ha!!! Give em' something to think about and gawk at.

I love to keep things in the closet or in storage, just in case!! I do get rid of a lot but my favorites stick around. Part of that is I am a full believer in taking very good care of items we work so hard for. My whole family is this way. For me, if I wear something and did not get it dirty or sweat in it, I hang in back up thus preserving it's wear! Plus, everything pretty much comes back in style in on way or another.

What about you? Do you tend to hang onto certain clothes or
purge everything every couple years?
Have a wonderful Wednesday Beauties!!

DeleteI have a pair of pants just like those that I LOVE - wore them yesterday.
ReplyDeleteI remember wearing shirts like that when I was young... & having 'friends' run & pull them down ... so now I have a total fear of wearing them.
Ha ha ha, too funny lady but not so funny at the time!!! Hope your having a great day!! :-)
DeleteWoohoo good for you that you still look great in them 15 years later! I definitely have a problem of keeping too many things but when they do come back I just want to say to my mom "see I told you!"

You got it girl, love me some colour!!! Thank you and hope you've been having an amazing day!!!
DeleteI cannot believe you have had these for so long. they are totally back on trend now! I love that. I am bad about getting rid of things when I should probably keep them because everything seems to come back.

DeleteHold on, you still fit in the same clothes that you have 15 years ago?! Gurlll, you need to share your secret! LOL! Culottes is the one trend that I refuse to jump on, I look horrid in it and makes my legs look like stumps. LOL!
ReplyDeleteShireen | Reflection of Sanity
Aw, pretty lady I bet you look gorgeous in about anything!!! Secret is lots of water and lots of walking (sometimes running but not thaaaat often) ha!!
DeleteHope you're having a super day!!!
So awesome you can still wear the same clothes 15 years later - that is an amazing achievement within itself! You look terrific and definitely on trend. Seriously got cracked up about the driving part - too funny!

Love the off shoulder. The burst of color is really amazing. Love it with your hair up.

Trends are always coming back around, like I say on my blog, every festival season, the boho look seems to be the thing!
ReplyDeleteI think it's great you've had these clothes for so long, if I had the space I reckon I'd keep more, but as things go, I do try and have a sort out every year and bin/donate anything I've not worn for 12-months. They tend to be fashionable pieces which I loved at the time, but as the seasons pass, they're no longer my thing or bits and pieces which have seen better days.
I still have a red V-neck sweater which I've had since my uni years (2005!) and I still love, albeit it's looking a little worse for wear now!

Some trends are worth revisiting. I own a few off the shoulder bright, patterned tops like yours and very similar black gaucho capris which are all the rage right now. Looking fabulous Andrea. =))
ReplyDeleteHave a fab weekend! Ada. =)
Very fashion forward, love the print in the blouse. And, rarely purge!

you look lovely!!! Thank you for sharing at the Thursday Favorite Things blog hop. I don;t have to many things that old. But I often wish I would have kept some of my clothes from the 60-70 time frame. xo
ReplyDeleteI think what goes around comes around!! Love this bright blue top on you, a great color on you, and I am a fan of the off the shoulder look.
ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up with Turning Heads Tuesaday!

That top is ridiculously cute and you are ridiculously not 40 something! You look fantastic! Must be because you have all boys. Girls will give you more gray hairs then you already own at 40 something. I know this because I too am part of the 40 something club and since my girls were born my gray has doubled. lol
ReplyDeleteYou're so pretty! Nice finds
