A Fashion Uniform: The Cure for Wardrobe Rage

What if we reclaimed the 280 days spent deciding what to wear? That's right: 16 minutes a day, 9 months of our lifetime is dedicated to the eternal struggle of wardrobe deliberations. Add the "I have nothing to wear" feeling, aka wardrobe rage, and the result is tardiness, missed opportunities, and frustrating stares at our closets. With daily offers from our Instagram feeds, fast fashionโ€™s constant and problematic drops, and the infinite number of fashion brands producing items we'll never wear, embracing a stylish uniform is a much-needed act of rebellion.

Listen, Iโ€™m not against newness when itโ€™s purposeful. A touch of Gucci's bordeaux red in one of their timeless handbags can add a modern twist to our staples, a little smile on our faces, and maybe that extra confidence to face a difficult conversation. But wanting new for the sake of it not only feeds our wardrobe rage monster, but it also hurts our planet and wallet. The answer? Selecting pieces that are true to who you are and that will last more than a season, and instead of fixating on price (within reason, of course), calculate the cost per wear. If its low, just make peace with your purchase. Use this calculator, it's brilliant. The world is full of chaos, so letโ€™s start by valuing ourselves enough to know that our time and resources are precious, and not waste them with this daily struggle.

Scroll down to see some of my suggestions - including that beautiful Gucci bordeaux bag* . Thank you as always, talk very soon! xx
