one color, muted, uncomplicated


I've been wearing lots of black lately, just all at once...black jeans, black tops, black shoes, with a brown leather belt, very simple. Dressing for myself used to be such an exciting event for me, so much fun to wear the most outlandish items - of vintage descent with crazy colors, patterns, combinations, influences, and styles. But now I'm feeling very overwhelmed and disgusted by that all. I just want basics, one color outfits, and be it not even colorful colors. Is it because I'm getting older? Why do I feel this strong urge to get rid of 98% of my wardrobe, all my treasures collected through the years, once coveted and sacred to me? I don't know what it is, but I feel no need to try and create an outfit or style that has to be something costume esque or outlandish anymore. Just very muted and simple, the only things showing any sign of energy from jewelry or headbands. Maybe it's just a phase, but each and every day i'm caring less and less on fashion... :(
