Happy 1st of September!
Not sure if it’s due to all those years in school, but the first day of September always feels like a fresh start to the year. A bit like New Years day but without the nasty hangover haha ;)
And for the first time ever, I am more or less prepared for the changing seasons ahead, at least from a wardrobe point of view.
For over a year now I’ve been trying to get rid of a lot of my old clothes – not only because I’ve had them for such a long time and not really worn them, but also because I’ve been moving a lot and quite frankly, I just don’t have enough space to be hoarding clothes I don’t wear.
During this small overhaul of my wardrobe, one key change I’ve tried to implement has been to opt for a smaller but “better” variety of clothes.
Since my budget has been quite small, I have been trying to buy good basic items that I can (hopefully) wear for at least 2-3 seasons and match with a variety of older clothes I already have.
Not that I am some sort of fashionista or style icon, but I’m excited and happy that I’m finally starting to get a feel for what my own style is – even if it’s taken me forever to figure out what I like AND look good in.
Anyway, I absolutely adore the outfit above that I got from my grandma for my birthday and I’m totally in love with some of the new clothes and accessories that I managed to snap up as either birthday or graduation presents.
You can have a look at them on the board below – although some of the items I just like and have pinned for inspiration purposes only, Im not made of money ;)

Now all I need is a bit chillier weather and I’ll be able to bust out my new coat and boots, paired with my new fake leather skirt (with pockets!) and grey cropped sweatshirt – can’t wait!
