Is it all the Same to You?

This is where I tell you that recently things have been a lot. There’s the house issues (a recap here and and even here), and semi related health issues (aka I haven’t felt great in months, which has affected my work outs and feeling great in my body- which feels so vain to say. But yep), and there are days when just getting up has been a struggle (much less getting dressed. And we know how I LOVE to get dressed!). Just. A Lot over here. (over on IG today I say the thing that I am probably not supposed to say- that this is all depressing to me, which is also affecting me).

And then. On top. Also. Even with all this. I went to my closet today. Even not feeling great in my body. Even being a little down. I was excited to get dressed. To shot. To plan. And it felt all the same.
-This is when we can chat about how sometimes fast fashion and continuous new makes us feel as if we need and need but nothing changes.
-We can chat about ruts and how perhaps we have go-to’s that serve us until they don’t. This is also where I share that I have a great friend who I used to go to sample sales with (we still would but we no longer live in the same town!)- we would shop separately and then share our picks before deciding. I had a habit of collecting grey shirts. Tees. Blouses. Sweatshirts. (I still have that habit!). And while I can tell you the difference between each one, it does lead to having a bit of one thing in your closet. And while there are ALWAYS so many, many ways to style anything – I get being tired of things. -I looked at my closet today and it was all black- and leopard. A lot of the outfits I came up with felt the same.

And it is valid to feel as if much of fashion is the same right now. That’s another conversation in and of itself. Yes, styling and your take on anything can help. But as much as I believe that, there are even times when I get it. I’m with you.

If it is all the same to you to and if it feels all the same to me, how do we get out? How do we change that? How do we make it different?

Right now I am in a season of figuring it out. I truly don’t know the answers. I am still in my closet- playing and switching, working out my life to feel great in that and in my clothes. It is a process. And takes some play. Some adventure. What I do know is that perhaps, in these last few months of the year, we can discover it together. All the same? Let’s chat about how they are different!
