2014 in review: favorite outfits

In 2014, I ...
 wore a crop top to work,

 thrifted an awesome black shirtdress in a lady-like length,

 wore all neutrals and liked it (!??!),

 experimented with a trilby, and

sewed with chiffon for the first time and made myself a kimono top.
   
       I wish that I had blogged a little more regularly in 2014, but I'm not going to let that bother me. After all, real life - like fulfilling all my family and  work obligations and getting to aikido practice two times a week - comes first.
      It's interesting to skim through the year's outfits and pick a few that stand out. Something I noticed was the predominance of black and gray. I still love my colors, but based on these photos they've become strategic accents instead of the main attraction.
     I'm still musing over what resolution(s), if any, I would like to set for 2015. But then again, I'm a procrastinator who figures I have the whole of January to figure out this year's goals. ;) 
    Are you more timely than I am and have your goals/resolutions made already? If so, leave 'em in the comments box for me to admire.

  2. I never make resolutions - they only lead to stress. But you do look great in black and grey, everyone should employ them more!

  4. Thanks, Ally! Hope your 2015 is off to a wonderful start! I'd like to blog a little more regularly this year because I enjoy posting and I think it pushes me to get a little more creative with my outfits.

  5. Erin, you're right - it can be stressful. I think a lot of times, people get too ambitious or are not specific enough to measure their success. I've found that a less stressful approach is to choose a word for the year.

  6. Thanks, Carolyn! I wore all black and gray to lunch today, so I guess I am carrying those colors into 2015, too.
