Now that I've been here a month, there are a few changes I would make to my wardrobe.

Some items I have already purchased, like the boots, jacket. I bought a new purple sweater to replace the one that I brought, as it developed a hole about a week into the trip. It was at least 5 years old (and not of superior quality) and was bound to need to be replaced. I also bought a polka dot blouse to replace the white one I brought, for similar reasons as the purple sweater. New items I already have are noted with a green border. Items that I would like but have not purchased and will likely not purchase, are noted with a pink border.

The list now includes 21 items of clothing, plus accessories, shoes and workout wear. The additional item is the jacket, which I planned to bring but forgot.


In this list I have replaced my boot cut jeans with some black skinny jeans. I have my eye on some Second Clothing Yoga Jeans which feel like wearing leggings rather than denim. I tried them on when I replaced my ripped slim blue jeans and cropped blue jeans, but just couldn't justify buying three pairs of jeans in one shopping trip.

I have also replaced some of the shirts with more classic tee shirts. While the shirts I brought are fine, I have found I just want to wear my simple tee shirt - I only have one!

Finally I should have brought my black tights. Given the weather they would extend my ability to wear my dresses and skirt further into the fall. I may break down and buy some here - they're not exactly bank breakers!
