Classics are always a better investment, and I love that we have access to stores like F21 for the trendy stuff. Nicole's comment made me giggle - she's probably right. Colored denim? Leopard print?

It's so fun though. :)Mini Me Stylehttp://www.minimestyle.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2007568342583669711.post-76968162232276413812012-06-04T20:41:32.882-05:002012-06-04T20:41:32.882-05:00Oh I love this outfit! you are kind of making me w...Oh I love this outfit! you are kind of making me want to buy some threadless Ts from gap.

I'm actually entertaining the idea of doing a June no-buy on clothes and makeup so I can spend that time re-evaluating what I need. And I'm so impressed by Extra Petite's budgeting - I had a spreadsheet for awhile, but it was nowhere near as organized (probably due to too many purchases!!!) but I'm inspired to start again! Classics are definitely great investments, but I love that the "what were they thinking" trends are what make fashion fun and current! I would hate to look back and only ever see pictures of myself wearing the same thing and never trying anything new, you know? Definitely a mix of both, like you said :)Laura @ Twelve by Sixhttp://www.twelvebysix.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2007568342583669711.post-44130502023508912642012-06-04T15:45:48.996-05:002012-06-04T15:45:48.996-05:00I've been meaning to take inventory & look...I've been meaning to take inventory & look at the 50 classics list.
