Play it Again | What I Wore #ootd

Remember when I mentioned that many people only wear 20% of their wardrobe? If that's the case, then we are duplicating our favorite fashions time and time again. It simplifies things, but how much is too much for a favorite look?

For me, much of the decision making in duplicating an outfit, is who I will see. That can also mean, who will see me (via social media pictures and in person). If we see each other three times a year and I am wearing the same casual blouse with my jeans, that's just not good - no matter how good it may look on me.

Part of developing your own sense of style, is variety and presenting that variety in your outfit choices. For instance - here's a skirt I wore earlier this week for client meetings (I've had it for years). Typically, I wear it with a black t-shirt and black sandals, but I changed it up a little to freshen the look.

Skirt - classiques entier (Nordstrom)

Shirt - Lands End

Sandals - Target

Bag - Kate Spade

Necklace - Ann Taylor

Earrings - Stella and Dot

Bracelets - Tiffany, Alex and Ani,

With the AC on it was chilly, so I added a plain black cardi from Lands End and for my second meeting, changed into a black sandal with a small heel. Changes don't have to be huge to subtly change the whole "look", even with a noticeable piece, like this pink print skirt. 

How do you change up and style your favorite pieces to avoid outfit burnout?
