a working girl's fashion

I'm a working girl now. Here are some of my thoughts on a working girl's fashion...

Right now I'm trying to wear everything in my closet. I don't have a lot of clothes, but I have a good amount. Of that good amount I adore probably 20%, am indifferent about 50%, and dislike about 30% mostly because the clothes are old, ill-fitting, or not very stylish. So since I started working a week and a half ago, I'm not allowing any repeats until/unless absolutely necessary. Shoes too (with a little more leniency). I predict that I can maybe go 4 or 5 weeks without repeating pants/skirts/dresses and quite a bit longer without repeating tops with the exceptions of cardigans (I wear one almost everyday).

Normally I get into major clothes ruts and I only wear the clothes I like and all the time. I think of how I dressed at NPG and it's not that cute. I'm talking I would wear the same shirt once every week and the same pants/skirts once or more times a week. I'm taking some inspiration from a girl I worked with at NPG who's wardrobe amazed me. I rarely saw her ever wear something more than once and that was in the almost 2 years I was there. She also used to work at Anthropologie and got most of her clothes from there. Lucky her.

So I'm putting a little more thought into my outfit planning. I'm wearing in-season, work appropriate clothing and spreading out the more stylish pieces to update the look of older pieces. I'm kind of crazy and I'm writing down in my planner what I wore so I can remember to not repeat it...also even crazier, I pulled out everything in my closet last night and stacked the clothes on the floor and I'm hanging them up only after I wear them. I'm weird.
