July editing

I like to keep track of what I get rid of.

Maybe it's odd but there are some of reasons behind it:

1. Sometimes I have doubts if I have given something away.

This way I know if it's just MIA in my closet or if I gave it away.

2. I get edit remorse, which is why I take pictures of

flaws the garment had and which is also why I write why it 

was given away.

That way, there is no space for remorse.

For example, this pair of shoes from Bershka (Zara's little sister).

I bought them about 4 years ago, never used them much.

They were purchased on a trip to Valencia, Spain - I love

them but they have deteriorated rather quickly. 

They have been taken to the cobbler twice and

they just do not look good anymore.

I have another pair of shoes leaving, these are over ten years old.

They are truly vintage now, its a pair of Skechers - for which I use to work for.

These have walked the world with me, but just do not fit my life style anymore.

I now prefer less bulkier walking shoes, however they are as comfortable

as the first day I got them :) so I am passing them on.

Then there's my leather sandals purchased in Barcelona a few years ago.

I have only worn them twice on the blog. I love them but they are too big.

I took them to the cobbler with hopes of having the back tightened 

and it did not work.

However I passed them on to a friend who will wear them to death.

A suit, a ten year old Point Zero grey suit.

I took it with me to a trip recently only to realize in the

worst way possible that it was time to let go.

The fabric does not look well, there is a tiny stain on the pants,

the blazer seems a bit big and a shoulder pad is 

missing (it's inside the jacket).

Also the trousers are really low cut.

A houndstooth top from Divided by H&M.

Fabric is really thin and it sticks to the skin which makes me look bulkier

and there is a tiny hole in the front of this top.

A bright green top by Polo Jeans Co.

It's a little tight, too low cut and I just don't wear it enough -

and when I do, I am not comfortable in it.

A fuchsia cardigan by Fever.

It's not worn enough and I have never really been able to style it 

to its utmost potential.

Hopefully somebody else will.

Lu by Lolita grey and blue striped shirt.

It was a birthday gift from many years ago, I have worn it 3 times in 3 years.

Too long for my frame, the boatneck stretches throughout the day.

I am never quite comfortable in it, so off it goes.

My Zara black pullover, it was a gift too.

Worn 7 times on the blog, the last time I found a tiny hole in the front of it.

Also, the color was not that black anymore.

Red Volar top was too a gift.

The top was not my style but I still tried it, did not love it as 

I tugged on it all day even though I was wearing a tank top underneath. 

It's just not me.

Nine West flip flops worn to death - or at least over 23 times.

This was probably my most expensive pair of flip flops ever, 

I paid about 20.00 USD 

for them which for me is too much for flip flops, they were worth every penny.

I am letting them go because I keep grabbing them and they look really bad.

Also taking a hike is this black beaded necklace.

I realize that I have better looking black necklaces and it's time I use them.

So, that's it - my July edits add up to 80 items so far year to date...
