The alarm pulls me away from the
romantic dinner I was having with Tom
Cruise and the aroma of fresh-perked coffee spurs my
sleepy body to
tumble out of bed and into the shower. I pull on my robe and traipse
downstairs to the kitchen to begin another day at the office. I pour my
coffee and sit down to read the newspaper.
A year ago I would have been dashing around frantically ironing blouses
and skirts, flinging clothes through the air like a madwoman and
sending my cat running for cover, trying to find something compatible,
pulling on nylons only to discover runs and snags in them and searching
desperately through my closets for matching shoes and handbags. Not any
more. I finally got smart, bought coordinating outfits with accessories
to match and organized my business attire so that I didn’t
have
to rush around at the last minute.
Now, I not only have a nice wardrobe for work but also a few formal
dresses and shoes for those special occasions. How did I go from being
a completely disheveled crazy person to becoming neat, prepared and
organized? Simple, last year I made myself a New Year’s
resolution that I would clean my closets and update my wardrobe with
chic, new styles that I could mix-and-match and which could be easily
maintained. I made a plan and I stuck to it.
The most difficult part was cleaning out my closets but I hired a
consultant and together we spent an entire afternoon making piles of
clothing, shoes and accessories. We laughed. We cried. We hugged and
finally we succeeded in reducing my inventory to a comfortable amount
that I could then work with. It also freed up precious closet space for
my new additions. What I didn’t have to dispose of was
donated to
a local women’s shelter.
Then I figured out a budget to allow for
enough money each month to
purchase new business attire. I decided to try shopping online and
found a wonderful, vast selection of plus size shops online that
catered to the full-figured woman. I began to select items that would
complement each other in brands, styles and colors.
One month I would dedicate to dresses and skirts, followed by blouses,
tops and sweaters. The next month would be shoes, hosiery and
undergarments, then on to jackets, blazers and coats. I did this each
month and my wardrobe has now grown to include a fabulous collection of
fashionable and flattering clothing that I absolutely adore!
I finish my coffee , rinse out my cup,
leisurely get dressed, feed the cat and go to work.
