I’m into minimalism for years and I decluttered very few clothes initially. BUT in the last 7 years I wore them down. Piece by piece things are getting repurposed (damaged longshirts can be fabrics for kids leggins!) or donated. A few items don’t fit anymore into my life with two kids and I certainly won’t wear tight jeans mini-dresses for gardening! Now I’m happy with most categories (still have a lot of shirts). I actually NEED to buy clothes now and then as old ones get damaged (pants, with kids they’re worn down quickly). You will come to this point, too! Your way is great!
@Alexas.nobuyyear2 ай бұрын
I love to hear that people are still "using things up". And you're right I hope to get to this point of actually wearing my things enough that I both enjoy them and eventually wear them out in an organic way! It might be through playing with kids over here too, haha 😁

About the leopard Ganni dress: I would really carefully think about cutting open the front and making those ties. That style looks very trendy and like it will go out of fashion quickly. Shortening the hem to make it into a blouse sounds like a really good idea though!!

Thank you for this - I agree! I am going to wear the tie-front top I already own more this summer and see how I feel before doing anything. And maybe even try wearing the Ganni as a dress (as it already is) more before too.

The grandma-made vest is fab. Looks designer! For the black dress with the slit, since it seems to fit great otherwise, it wouldn’t be too hard to change out the straps to a wider ribbon of your liking and to onset a piece of black satin to fill the slit. You, grandma or a tailor could do it! Hearing this classical piece, I can’t help thinking it was the jumping off point for the composition of the wonderful music on the soundtrack of The Magnificent Seven (1960) by Elmer Bernstein.
@Alexas.nobuyyear2 ай бұрын
Yes thank you grandma! Unfortunately she's no longer with us but very probably she could have helped with the dress too. I think this one I might leave in its original state and pass on, since it does seem to be a popular style for some, (who may not mind being a little "sexier" at formal events), even if it's not great for my needs. I'll look into that soundtrack too! You can actually hear a lot of Holst's "The Planets" (which is where this piece, Jupiter, is from) in the soundtrack of Star Wars by John Williams as well! The artistic references are everywhere!

I do! And unfortunately I am not in any of the recordings available to use on this media - if my orchestra does do a recording, it will be copyrighted by the orchestra and possibly the composer if they're still living - and so I won't be able to use it. I do hope to use more of my own "solo" playing in the future but it's a lot to coordinate, so not sure when that might happen 😁
