Confession Time {Clothes Edition}...

I haven't done a "Confession Time" in a long time, so I thought I would share a few confessions that all relate to my clothes.

Once again, I am a little hesitant to share, but I here I go...

Confession #1:  I lay out my clothes every night before I go to bed for the next day.  every. single. night.  And I lay out everything: shoes, jewelry, undergarments, clothes, etc.  Everything.  Why?  Because if I don't, I am a wreck the next morning.  You can ask my best friend/college roommate, Nichole.  She used to give me a hard time in college.  But then one night in college, I didn't lay out my outfit and the next morning was awful {this neat freak's room looked like the aftermath of a tornado}.  So it seems that I am very decisive at night and extremely indecisive in the morning.  Is anyone else a "lay out their outfit the night before" kind of girl?


Confession #2:  This one is the hardest to admit, because I don't want to appear snooty.  I don't wear the same outfit twice in a semester.  My family and friends give me SUCH a hard time about this fact.  Let me do a little explaining:  I DEFINITELY wear the same clothing items multiple times in a semester, but I just try to mix-and-match things to have different "outfits".  Also, I am not a shopaholic.  I seriously haven't been on a shopping spree since last August.  So how do I do it?  I try to buy classic pieces {especially skirts} that can be worn with lots of different tops and accessories.  My favorite black cardigan {that I have on today} is from 8th grade.  Yep.  And my skirt and top are from Maurices {high school days}.  Classic is the key.  :)


Confession #3:  I despise ironing.  despise.  like really despise.  I think I have used my iron once.  I am a "throw it in the dryer" girl.  Or "take it to the dry cleaner" girl.  Or "who cares" girl.  :) Any fellow iron despisers out there?!

So... are any of you all wanting to confess anything now? :)

  2. I have clothes from middle school too, haha! Love it! I need to start planning my outfit the night before because sometimes I do end up throwing stuff everywhere looking for something or being indecisive. And I always throw my clothes in the dryer rather than ironing them - so I totally understand. :)

  3. love it! Nick irons EVERYTHING and it is crazy...I definitely am a "who cares" girl but mainly I just try to buy things that don't require ironing!

    I should totally go back to my "lay it out the night before" days...that might definitely cut down on some of the blank stares into the closet mornings!

  4. I hang everything after washing to avoid ironing and hanging it in the bathroom whilst you shower tends to steam out the wrinkles too. And if it still has wrinkles; hey it's meant to be like that- its my style!

  5. I hate having to pick something out in the morning and the only reason I have an iron is for when I sew :)

  7. I HATE ironing as well! I do not iron anything...My husband on the other hand, irons everything almost everyday! I also just stick it in the dryer...I am a true believer in the dryer method!

  9. Ha!! I LOVE this post!!!
    I most definitely lay my clothes out the night before if we have to be somewhere the next morning. Saturday nights I lay everyone's clothes out....or else like you it turns into a tornado of clothes. Makes for a much smoother morning!
    And I am so with you on wearing outfits twice! I secretly pencil into my calendar what outfits I wear to church on sunday so I never repeat;) haha!
    Hope you had a good Tuesday friend!

  10. I don't lay my clothes out the night before, but I think I should - to save all that panicky, rushed trying-on minutes before I have to actually go somewhere. If I'm just staying at home (and this is really kind of embarrassing), I rewear my jeans and yoga pants. For maybe a week straight. Ugh! But I won't stop!

  11. I do lay my clothes out the night before. I have to get up very early for work and would never be able to put together an outfit that early. I am so used to laying out my work clothes that I lay out my clothes on other days too. It just works best for me. Also, I really enjoy reading your blog. Thank you for sharing your faith with the world. If you have time, I would love it if you would stop by my blog. It is all about everything the Lord is doing in my life. I just recently started this blog when I felt moved by God to do it. I was pretty hesitent at first (and was completely clueless about blogs) but now I'm excited and pray that God will bring many people to the blog. The site is www.Hislivingwords.blogspot.com . Thanks :)
