Inventory - Version 1

After seeing Dead Fleurette do an inventory of her wardrobe, I felt the urge to catalogue what is in mine as well.  I'm not very fashionable but I do want to try and make sure I wear as many of my items as possible.  This isn't really useful for you since there are no pictures but it's more to remind myself of what I have.  Clothes that are too worn to wear out are relegated to the 'wear at home' category which is not shown below.  

For the most part, 2011 was a year where I made a conscious effort to consume less, buy less new stuff and buy more used clothing.  To consider each purchase carefully, regardless of whether it was in the department store or charity store.  For 2012, I am going to try and keep a rigorous log of what I buy.

Next to each item will be one or more coloured circles.  The legend for it is as follows.
• Items that I wear on a regular basis
• Items that I should wear more frequently
• Never worn, will wear
• Never worn, not sure what to do with it
• Item is too big/small, too worn or not my style.  Get rid of it, donate, or sell.
Items that are in italics were purchased new.
* These are for a specific use ie job interviews, corporate wear.  I am buying for the future, so to speak.

My favourite clothes to wear are jeans and T-shirts as they are a comfy combination.  Also I don't have to think too much in regards to dressing when I am rushing for the train to get to a 9am lecture.  I am most definitely not a skirt or dress person, I will reluctantly wear them when I have absolutely nothing else to wear.  I am not sure what to do with the skirts and dress I have, the pencil skirt is especially nice... I might wear it one day.  The print on the French Connection skirt is very cute and colourful.  It reminds me of ice creams and sunny days. 

Shoes that fit well are very hard to find in charity stores, it is even harder to find ones that are in good condition.  So I think for shoes I will have to buy new.  Right now I am looking for a new backpack for school since the zip is busted beyond repair on my current one.

For 2012 I am looking for a pair of ballet flats preferably in black or dark caramel or sandals, a pair of slim leg black trousers and a new hoodie or wool coat.  I am eternally searching for long sleeved clothes as my arms are longer than average.  Sometimes I put on a jacket and the sleeves are at least 2 inches away from my wrist.  Bracelet length, my ass.  Finding clothes that fit is the bane of my existence.
