Let’s hit refresh…

With every new season, we constantly look at our closet full of clothes and think “I need something new” but recently I’ve been asking myself, do I really? I think that the key to making good choices while shopping is to make sure that what you buy will last you for more than a season. After all, that’s really how you start to develop a sense of personal style.

Recently, I’ve been inspired to take old pieces in my closet and wear them in new ways to make them feel fresh and new for a new season. Just because it’s been in your wardrobe for more than a season, doesn’t mean it isn’t stylish! It also really helps put all the pieces in your wardrobe to the test, of whether they are truly worth their buck! One of my favorite pieces is this pair of Topshop trousers I bought a couple of years ago. I love the colour because it’s so classic and the fit is amazing. I wore these pants to Paris Fashion Week and really wanted to style them again!

I paired these pants with a top that is almost four years old! I have so much black and white in my closet but this is one of those tops I just cannot say no to – there is something so classic and chic about it and it lasts me season after season! To really give the look a fresh feel I paired it with a waist bag from Helmer. I loved how the metallic details of the bag make this outfit feel so shiny and new! Completed with a pair of sock boots and a coat I have literally been wearing on repeat, all my old pieces suddenly felt so fresh. Could you have ever guessed that I’ve worn these pieces a thousand times before on the blog too?

How do you make your old pieces feel new? Where do you go for your style inspiration?
