I love this Erika, it’s like conversation starters but for your closet (and now I want a deck of cards of them to inspire me every time I get dressed 💭)

Great ideas! Allison Bornstein suggested changing one thing in your outfit at the end of the day to give yourself styling ideas, and I’ve been trying to do that and resist the siren song of my sweatpants.

I love these ideas! Related to the “wear leggings and take a walk idea,” I found that walking my dog in an outfit that I’m not 100% about helps me so much. It gives me the chance to exist in the outfit in the world, think about what might not be working about it, gather inspiration, then come home and adjust the outfit before I officially leave for the day. It’s like a trial run for unfinished outfits. Can apply the same on coffee runs too!

Great ideas! I immediately ran to my closet and put on a v neck sweater, one that is more revealing than I like, backwards. I love the new look!

Some really good ideas here, Erika. I often build outfits around specific accessories that I want to wear, like a scarf or a belt or jewelry. Love adding tights to really change the look of an outfit too. Fabulous!💜

I love all of these ideas! It’s amazing how just a small shift in perspective can give you so many more ideas with what you already have.

I'm doing a no-spend on clothes/shoes/accessories through the end of the year. I love all of these ideas! I'm really into monochrome dressing. I want to try adding a pop of color, but I don't own many colorful items. I think bright red socks are going on my Christmas list!
