74 Days to Go

Oh my goodness, I can not believe I am almost done with this project.  I have been thinking about what I have learned over the last 10.6 months.  Here are a few "Shopping Lessons"  that will remain as blueprints in my consciousness:

1.  Just because it is expensive, doesn't mean it is the best style for me.
2.  Just because it is on SALE, doesn't mean it is the best style for me.
(Both ends of the spectrum)
3.  Cheaply made clothing from stores that are trendy do not suit me. 
4.  Trendy styles do not suit me.
5.  Bright colors, at least near my face, do not suit me.
6. A well fitting bra will change the look of my clothes.
7.  Spanx should be worn with everything.
8.  Never buy shoes just because they are cute if they hurt my feet.  (One would think I had learned that lesson years ago, and I had, but still...)
9.  Basics.  Basics can be mixed and matched.
10. Just because it looks really good on my best friend, doesn't mean it looks really good on me.

I have learned a lot more than this short list, but I can't process it all at once.  I am beginning a list of basics I have found I really am missing and will post that next.

Love,
