Step 1: Select a color palette
As a confessed print junkie, I commonly commence with an inspiring pattern. For this set, I centered in on the autumnally appropriate, Striped Audrey Dress. If you flock to solids, the same principles apply. Simply select colors with a similar heritage and blend harmoniously (ie jewel tones, pastels, etc).
Step 2: Shop formulaically
Start with roughly double the number of tops as bottoms. Why? Because people pay more attention to your top half (you know that half that does all the talking and gesturing) than your bottom half. Next you want items which provide multiple applications. If you can’t wear it in more than two ways, put it back on the rack. Finally, absolutely include layers. Putting your wardrobe on such a strict diet may tempt you to avoid layers, don’t. Layering is the key to flexible fashion.
Step 3: Accessorize
When assembling a cluster, select shoes with unique purposes: one set of heels, one pair of flats, one couplet of boots. And don’t scrimp on the details. Jewelry, scarves, and belts deserve their fair share of your shopping budget. Forgetting accessories in your fashion is like forgetting punctuation in your writing. You might be able to communicate, but its going to read like a sloppy, hot mess.

I love this! I know I have such a problem finding a new way to wear my clothes that doesn’t give me the same feeling of eating the same set of meals each week. I will definitely try this! Thanks for the great post.
