Look how I wore one item 3 stylish winter ways!

in Tips on 10/08/16

We are still in the last  few weeks of winter and it is about now that I begin to crave a season wardrobe change feeling stuck in a winter style rut.

So, instead of wearing my same go to outfits I decided to see if I could wear one item from my wardrobe in three stylish ways. I’d like to show you how easy it can be!

I choose my Seduce leather look vest with faux fur trim – a Raid My Wardrobe purchase from about 3 years ago that has definitely had it’s 30 wears and is a favourite of mine so naturally I love wearing it different ways.

So, here are the three ways I wore my vest:

Style #1

Faux fur vest over Metalicus wrap around dress with knee high boots. The vest looks fabulous over a pencil skirt too!

Style #2

Faux fur vest over skivvy with black Bardot skinny jeans (or leather look pants) and Wittner ankle boots.

Style #3

Faux fur vest over crisp white shirt with True Religion boyfriend jeans and Country Road peep-toe heels (’cause the sun came out and I braved the cold 🙂

Wearing one item 3 or more ways is very liberating:

* It has helped me keep things simple.

* I felt beautifully dressed each day with colours and style that suit my personality.

* I feel good knowing how easy it is to live with just a few items of clothing and still look fabulous and stylish.

Go to your wardrobe and choose an item and see how easy it is to wear it 3 ways this week. Take some pics and share them on our Facebook or Instagram page tagging @raidmywardrobe we’d love to see it!

Yours in all things preloved,

Raid My Wardrobe Returns event on the October Long Raid My Wardrobe Returns event on the October Long Weekend at @clubmacquarie was a vibe! So many local women and loads of visiting out-of-towners embraced this opportunity to sell, buy and circulate all their amazing fashion pieces. 

Some comments from the day: 

"I'm here with my teenage daughter and I used to come to these events when she was a baby in a pram."

"So many amazing items, prices way cheaper than op shops." 

"It was a great venue and a great successful day. The other stall holders and the customers were all very excited, friendly and looking for great brands/fashion at great prices". 

Thanks to our generous stallholders for donating any unsold items to @gotyourbacksista @villageopshop
