Really appreciate your thoughtful process of understanding the why behind an ever-expanding wardrobe and creating a meaningful pause to curate things you truly love. I also love your style and would be thrilled to see more every day outfits or pieces you currently reach for often and those that make the cut from your future purchases list.

I want the spreadsheet template though :) love this sentiment and also feeling inspired to start shopping my closet, buying fewer things and really understanding closet gaps.

I'm finally getting around to reading this post. This really made me think about my own shopping habits and how many of my purchases are home runs (few are). It's also got me excited to inventory my closet and carefully create a list of 2025 purchases! I can't wait to read how your shopping goes :)

This is a great list - I just bought a navy sweatshirt from Buck Mason, but haven’t received it yet. I’ll keep you posted if it’s good :) I have high hopes. More jewelry is on my list too!!

Good one here, Alice. I've been on a similar quest, and part of that is to get rid of clothes with synthetics - hardest one was finding a fleece jacket made from wool, but I persisted and did. I hope to find a few "buy it for life" pieces this year. Ciao.

Thank you for sharing--so much of this resonated, including the love for data! Best of luck with building a more thoughtful wardrobe in 2025 <3

Wow .. this resonated with me A LOT. Putting things "in the cart" is something I began late last year. Funny how I didn't return to it (most of the time). Looking forward to seeing the list come to life :-)
