>> I do like it when content gets a bit creative and doesn't just default to the mind-numbingly obvious. Case in point, I've received four interview questions in the past week all asking what my favourite S/S 12 trend is. Beurgh. Bluefly were responsible for one of my favourite videos that I've ever participated in – which is saying a lot because I permanently grimace whenever I see myself moving on camera – and Fly & MIghty blog have come up with a little infographic illustrating some of the weird and wonderful stats that my wardrobe holds. These are all more or less, verified stats if my shaky counting is to be relied upon. Except I now have two faux fur skirts because I just bought one from the ASOS sale. This little chart has given me more ideas on how to clutter up the sidebar (you didn't think that the cleaned-up look would stay here for long, did you?) but for now, I'm just glad that Fly & Mighty didn't ask me yet another question on where I see the world of social media going.
Fly and Mighty Thank You
I think this has inspired me somehow. May have to do a copy cat post at Rags against the Machine!
Nice selection of outfits !

Oh yay! (er – *jazz hands*). Just watched the vid. Lovely! (now I sound like your mum). Really gorgeous. Simple loveliness (gets coat).
The stats picture is so cool! Now I can get my parents off my back for wanting more trainers… “Susie Bubble has 135 pairs of shoes!!”
I really love that skirt you have on on the right hand side. *sigh*
and the stats picture is awesome!

1 lampshade skirt…..riggggghhhthhhhtt
Ooh, I love a good infographic!
Now my wardrobe doesn’t seem so bad! Am tempted to try this out for myself, I really love collecting clothing and you’re spurred me on even more to find some well-designed, quality pieces.
That tinsel skirt on the left is uh-mazeing!! Is it vintage?
No, it’s from a Meadham Kirchhoff for Topshop collection that came out last year! The tinsel sheds quite a bit but that’s part of the fun!
LOL, that’s certainly a funny way of displaying statistics.
Love! xx
What a unique and interesting post- I am totally digging it π I love the graph, so cute.

how do you afford? i thought i was crazy for buying like 8 pairs of shoes this season but DAMN
I know you usually dont reply to comments, but it would mean the world to me if you replied to this one. I am a 13 year old living in the states. I always admired fashion and I take a TON of inspiration from you. I never found myself coloring outside the lines, but you inspired me to with my clothing. I love thrifting and putting together outfits. every sunday i put together 6 outfits with a sticky note on them saying what day of the week to wear them, how to wear my hair and how to do my makeup. I would love if you would give me some tips on personal style.
It’s more of a matter of keeping things and not throwing things away more than anything else. I’ve got things that I’ve had since i was 16 – that’s over a decade’s worth of accumulation which is a bit scary….
I actually do try to reply to comments but only if there’s a specific question or a pertinent issue…
I really don’t like giving advice on personal style – especially ones that TRY to mould your style or push you in a certain direction. It sounds to me like you’re already having fun experimenting with what you’re doing. If you feel good about that, then you’re already doing something right! The only thing I can say therefore is, Carry On! 13 is such a great age for going through phases and dipping your toes into things and discarding styles too. I guess just try and be as open-minded as possible at this stage. Sounds like the kind of fun I’d like to regress to, if I’m honest…
Very beautiful article π

This is the kind of thing I would dread. Cue the irate email from my Mother:
“YOU HAVE HOW MANY PLASTIC HANDBAGS?!”
135 pairs of shoes, 146 skirts, 104 dresses? that too much maybe? either you earn a fortune or you get tons of presents…
Ah, the inevitable probing into how much I earn/get…. I’ll try and do a count but I would estimate that 90% of my wardrobe is bought and 10% of it gifted. I do have a spending problem which is why so much of my money pretty much just goes just like that. But like I said, my wardrobe is also the result of over a decade of accumulation. I just keep A LOT of things. I’ve only ever culled my wardrobe once and it wasn’t a very severe cull. These figures only make sense if you take all of that into consideration.
Wow, it’s amazing how many shoes you have! If I had so many clothes/items I wouldn’t be able to walk in my tiny London apartment. You should start a museum! π

that closet overview is just lovely, you have to put it on the sidebar, nobody minds when the sidebar gets a little messy again, it somehow suits your “bubbly” image when the sidebar is not polished and organized to hell π
You need more gloves
Cute chart. I always love hearing what’s in other people’s closets. http://girllovescolor.blogspot.com/

This is like a fashionistas, it doesnt matter whether your stuff is expensive or not as long it is looks nice and in, in the current fashion trend.
Like me, i like to collect different types of girl stuff, i dont want to be out of the fashion trend.
The tinsel skirt is so cool! It kind of reminds me one of those Hawaiian grass skirts…amazing!!
Your tips are extremely valuable. It is perfect time to make some plans for the future and it’s time to be happy. I have read this post and I really really like the topic about gadgets.
thank you for your wonderful words! you have made a stormy day into a WONDERFUL, sunny one!
