i like playing with clothing. i decided to imagine what my "perfect minimal summer wardrobe" would look like. it's the perfect time to do it, because i know what i like to wear right now for my lifestyle and for this weather…so i have a good chance of getting it just right. i drew out some pieces that seem like they could be my dream pieces.
i ended up noting a number of the pieces in my actual wardrobe in this dream selection. that is somewhat surprising and altogether satisfying! :) i was finished quite quickly and when i looked at the page, i realized i could just substitute in some of the dresses i already have for the ones i dreamt up.
voila, my perfect minimal summer wardrobe actually exists in my closet and on my body right now!
the pieces:
3 dresses:
~white linen dress
~black tee dress
~black and white caftan
2 jumpsuits:
~navy linen
~tan linen
4 tops:
~black tee
~cream tee
~white linen tank
~liberty tank
2 shorts:
~denim cut-offs
~soft olive
2 pairs of shoes:
~black and white flip-flops
~toms
there are a few other items that get occasional use like my dressier sandals, a grey cardigan, and a long sleeve indigo tee, but i've listed my main pieces for a summer full of fun and relaxation! i ended up donating or selling a few of the now extra pieces that didn't make my list. i feel like this will be useful information when i'm putting together next summer's wardrobe. i can just look at what pieces need to be replaced and go from there…knowing these pieces will be enough!
what have you learned about your clothing habits this summer?

jane
