Closet Case: A Year of Retail Reformation

I am a closet case.
A terrible shopper who spent $15,000 last year on clothes that are just short of boring. I'm over it.
I'm starting this blog to re-learn how to shop. I want to spend way less money on way better clothes. Establish my own style. Kick my junkie-like addiction to Banana Republic basics.
I think there are a lot of women out there like me, who might enjoy reading this and get something out of it. The rest of you...feel free to point and laugh.

On the road.

This week will be a little different as I am traveling all week for work. I tried to pack stylishly, but not overpack which is hard. One of the things that keeps my suitcases under 1000 pounds is limiting myself on the shoes, so you'll only see two pairs this week. I'm also doing all the photos on my own with one of those grippy tripod things

I'm watching focus groups this week, so all of my outfits have to be somewhat professional, keep me warm in freezing office buildings and transition to dinner if need be. Here's today's outfit:

Kate Spade blouse($128, on sale)
Club Monoco cardigan ($150)
Banana Republic skirt ($60)
Cole Haan Bacara Ballet Flats ($138)

PS - Love me some skirts and dresses with pockets!!
