Hi BS, Thanks for your comment! Phones are just an amazing tool to use for lists and do try the album of outfits, I find it extremely helpful. Plus we always have our phones with us! I am horribly camera shy but I will try to put myself out there more. I never really wanted this to be all about me, more about spreading the knowledge I've picked up from years as a designer and now stylist. I've always loved clothes and dressing so it's a joy to ramble on about it! When it's relevant I will include photos of me and what I've purchased. I'm currently on the hunt for a new pair of great winter walking shoes; I'll keep you posted. Thanks again, your comments are extremely helpful!
Thank you again for another great newsletter! I am actually going to save all these rules in my phone and look at them before I consider any new purchases. Rule #7 especially spoke to me. In the past I have made too many purchases based on how much I adore an individual item and less on whether that item fits with all the other clothes in my wardrobe, or even whether it fits with my current lifestyle. This means I have many really special pieces that don't always fit well together. But I like to make checklists, so your idea of having one in your phone to concentrate decisions is such a great idea.
I also have to say I really enjoy it when you show us your own personal styling and outfits. I would love to see more! Tying in with your recent article on Breaking with Sneakers, and the fact that you mentioned that you walk around 5 miles a day, I would especially like to learn more about your shoe collection. The ones I can see in these photos look both stylish and functional.
