Happy Tuesday lovelies!
Closet confessions………..mmmm, let me think…- honestly if my closet could speak for itself, it would go on unceasingly. As a fashion blogger, it is expected of me to have a flawlessly organized and equipped closet that has all the essentials that anyone would need to get awed. But this is not the case, I have a few basics missing and a few unwanted items in excess.
So, let me cut to the chase, and allow me to make a few confessions on behalf of my ever expanding closet.
First– I don’t have the basics that hold the closet together. I don’t own basic tank tops, a multi-way bra, nude/skin color tights and body shapers to name a few. Reason for not owning these- I feel constrained in tank tops and body shapers. I understand that for any outfit to fall smooth, you need to have an overall body shaper, but truthfully, I dread the sight and thought of these tight, body-hugging, man-made materials.
Second – I don’t own a single pair of black trousers or an LBD ( little black dress ). These 2 are considered to be the wardrobe builders, but unfortunately, I don’t own either of the two. I have previously and publicly announced of my flat butt, and this always comes in my way of finding a butt and hip-hugging trouser. All these years, every time I have stepped into a store with the purpose of buying trousers, I have always found myself lost in the sea. Same with the LBD, I haven’t been able to figure out the right silhouette for me.

Third– RED is the only primary color that seems to be missing from my closet, blue being the prevalent one. I have always been apprehensive about red on me, and have had a hard time finding the right shade of red. The only red thing in my closet is this red blazer and a bunch of red lipsticks. I think I need to start embracing this shade more, coz it compliments every skin tone.
Fourth – My penchant for silk has landed me with a closet full of feminine silk shirts, tops, swing jackets and also a bunch of silky scarfs. Dressing up silk in summer can be a bit of a challenge with the heat index involved, but I can now handle challenges well. Rolling up the sleeves of a button-down or wearing swing jackets belted as shirts can work the trick pretty much for everyone. At least it does for me..!!!
Last– I own about 25 pairs of jeans in several styles and hues, but only 5-6 of the entire bunch see the light as much, including these ones that I am wearing today. My flat butt being the problem area makes me less interested in others, that don’t do much to help in that back department. It is time I get rid of the unflattering ones and make room for new ones that at least give the illusion of roundness.
These are some of my closet confessions. Do you have any? Would love to hear from you all..
