Here is what I plan to buy (and yes I know this is extensive but this is what I want, I am tired of wearing the same things over and over again because of limited selection, so this time around I want a vast selection).
For work- I plan to buy more work pants, classic uniform style khakis. I want one khaki, one black, and one navy. For the tops I want to go with plaid long sleeve shirts with tanks underneath so that way I don't have to button them up. I also want to do polos but none with graphics. I want polos that are solid but with a different colored logo on them in the upper right corner so I can match the tank to it. I plan to wear these un-buttoned and layer them with the tanks. I would like to have at least 30 options so I would say about 15 polos and 15 plaid shirts. I also plan to buy coordinating jackets for every color outfit I get or at least most because it is 62 degrees in my job and I have to have a jacket everyday.
For weekends - I am sort of stumped on this. At first I was thinking I would do jeans and fashion tops but when I go through and look at the fashion tops... I only see like 2-3 that I like and even those are kinda meh. I think now I am leaning toward plaid Bermuda shorts with fitted graphic tees and a coordinating jacket and shoes. The issue is I am having problems finding plaid Bermuda shorts. There are literally none for sale. I think they are out of season as it IS October... hopefully they will bring them back in the spring or summer. It's a good thing this is low priority on my list of stuff to buy. As a last resort I can always go to eBay but most of their stuff is used, and I want to buy only new clothes.
For PJs - I get cold REALLY easily! So I am planing on buying only long pants for pjs. At first I was leaning toward one of every color but now that I have decided that I want all my pj tops to be tie dye shirts I think I want all my pj bottoms to be either black, white, or grey. At this time I all ready have one dark gray, one white, one pink, and one blue. So I think I would just be adding one light gray and one black and any other pj bottoms that I just HAVE to HAVE. As for the tie dye shirts? One day I was on Etsy and I just fell in love with the idea of wearing tie tye all the time. I obviously can not wear tie dye to work so that wont be happening and I really don't want to wear it out as I prefer to wear fitted shirts out rather than t-shirts, so I decided that I would be wearing tie dye for my pjs and around the house etc. I went on Etsy and found a few sellers that have lots of cute shirts that I want. I actually picked out 31 that I would love to buy, will I buy all 31? Who knows, but I sure do want to.
For bras - I am very picky about bras. I only have 2 that I will wear atm and they are Victoria's Secret Wonder Bra. I am not sure if I will be buying more of those or not. I may try out Hollister's bras and see if they are any good and I may try out some from Zulily too. I guess it really kinda would be a shot in the dark until I found someone that sells ones that I really like for a cheap price. I want at least 7 good bras and they all need to be white or very close to white. While I love cute colored bras, it is the most annoying thing on the planet when the color shows through a light colored shirt. So no colored bras for me!
For socks - oh socks! I have not bought socks in a good long while! I have about 5 pairs with holes in them that I have had since the 8th grade that I STILL wear! Yeah really. So I plan on throwing out all my socks with the exception of about 6 pairs that are less than a year old. I then want to buy about 10-15 new pairs, all no-show. I also want some that are tall for those super cold days and some for flats.
For underwear - Right now I have about 35 pairs of underwear. Most are about 3 years old. Some are even older. About 6 are less than 3 years. I plan to throw out all of them but the newer ones and buy a pair to replace each one I throw away. I would like to buy all my new underwear from Hollister, they have the cutest underwears!
For shoes - I am a shoe addict. I REALLY AM! I used to have quite a bit of shoes but my old cat peed on them all so I had to throw them all out! Now I only have one pair of sneakers and one pair of flip flops. I plan to buy a pair of flip flips in every color and a pair of sneakers in every color as well so I can have matching shoes for every outfit I have. I also want some boots, the kind with fur at the top, and a few pairs of flats too. Maybe even some dressy shoes or gladiators shoes.
For accessories- I plan to buy bracelets, necklaces, rings, belts... all that good stuff in all the colors to match my outfits as well. I also plan to start wearing earrings again. I have not done this in a LONG time! I used to have gauges a few years back.... that was a stage and I am over it now and ready to start wearing normal earrings. :] I also want to buy a neutral colored back pack to use as a purse. I do not like purses but backpacks are fine with me. So I am looking for one that is either white, grey, tan, or something like that, that would look ok with just about anything. The reasoning is, since I am going to have so much going on color wise, I do not want to add more color (and a different color at that) with a bag. I do not want a full size backpack though, just a mini size, so finding the perfect one may take a while.
And last but not least! - HAIR! - I have been having issues with this wild hair of mine! I have not cut it in 5 years and it is VERY long. It's to the top of my butt at the longest length, but it is very uneven all over the place too. You wouldn't know though because I wear it in a bun 24/7. Wearing it in a bun has caused me some issues as of late. I guess my hair is just tired of it and quite frankly.... I am too. My hair is starting to fall out at the front and I have two spots where it looks like I am going bald. I know I really have to do something about this before it becomes a major issue. I think the the only thing to do is to stop putting it up and give it time to grow back and recover. Well.... my hair is very curly and very hard to tame it is absolutely impossible to wear down unless it is straightened with a flat iron. So as much as I REALLY do not want to do this, I am going to have start straightening my hair every night before I go to bed. I like my hair straightened but it just takes way too much time, that is why I never do it! But maybe I will learn to to do it fast if I do it everyday lol. Anyways I plan to go to the barber shop and get it cut and maybe even dyed or highlighted and then start wearing it down. I am going to start this as soon as I have the money to do so. I would need about $250 to get this done.
And so there you have it! All the plans for my new wardrobe. Will I go through with them all? Who knows. But one thing I do know is that I WILL have a new wardrobe! whether I stick to these plans or not, because it is just something that I need to have. When it's time, it's time. And now... it is time.
