Closet Couture!

So you would guess I have tons of Clothes, Accessories and Shoes! Saying this I'm tired of buying something I already have or discovering a forgotten item that I could have been wearing all season!

Finding this site was a heaven sent! So what this website does is it allows you to catalog your Wardrobe (Remember like in the Clueless Movie!) It is tedious to set up but once you're up it's quite amazing! Also while setting up it gets you filtering and purging the clothes you don't need or wear anymore!

So here's the run down...

You take a picture of all your things, I started one category at a time! My first category was Bags/Purses. You need to set up a white sheet or hang on an all white wall and take a picture of each item. (make sure there are no wrinkles in the sheet and minimize shadows as much as you can, being a perfectionist I cropped each item to ensure there were no shadows)

There is a background remover on this site, I Suggest not removing the background when Uploading but do it after and edit each item.

Another tip is try searching the item if it's a common brand and lots of times it will come up. No picture taking needed. Also for example if it's just a white oxford shirt instead of taking a picture try goggling a picture of "white oxford". I personally don't mind if it's identical just similar.

Now I'm in no way done yet but slowly working at it. And when you have enough categories you can start making Outfits!!!

When you make outfits you can save them and others can view and rate them! Also there is an Editor who chooses outfits they feature! Not to toot my own horn but almost all my outfits have been Editor's picks! You can Rate other User's outfits and Comment whether a piece looks good in the outfit and if your friends are on it you can make outfits for them too!

YSL, Escada, ¸Danier ...Great Thrifting Day!

Since Last week me and Foxy have been dying to venture back to the Value Village (Keele and Wilson) so we go back with high expectations and we weren`t disappointed!

Here`s what I got:


YSL Rive Gauche Vintage
 ($19.99)

On the hanger this Yves St Laurent Suit was very lack luster and seemed past it's years. I think at this point I was just brand whoring!

Brand Whore is defined as: Only looking at the name brand when considering items regardless of style/color, and how unflattering or ugly it might be!

But upon trying it on it fit amazingly! Which goes to show you should never judge something on the hanger! It is really fitted in the waist and then flow out giving a very hourglass like figure! Now I'm never going to wear the pants and blazer together but to own a suit made by the originator of the pantsuit for females a YSL Suit is must!



I really needed sweaters so I cruised the section and came out with quite a few!I love this Pink Super-Soft Over sized Sweater.


Over sized Pink Sweater
($3.99)

So large I wear it as a dress with printed leggings or tights. Wore it the other day and LOVED my outfit with my leopard print leggings, Sky High Wedge booties, Turquoise necklace and quilted bag....here I put a collage together so you can see imagine how awesome I looked the other day. Damn, Should've took a picture!






Escada Knit Fitted Sweater
($7.99)

Cami and Large Knit Sweater
($5.99)

Got this large knit see through-like Black Sweater.

 It cam with a built in camisole but I think I might rip  it off.

Also found this simple Escada v-neck, 3/4 sleeve, beige-grey fitted sweater.

Good Basics.

Last but definitely not least, I got this really cute Blue Danier suede skirt. It is a fitted pencil skirt that fits like a dream.
