...is not an art I've mastered. I tend to go with an all-or-nothing approach, as you can see.
It just seems like a whole extra thing to deal with, when I'm often already stymied by the
clothes situation. I find myself standing in front of my jewelry thinking Look, I'm not naked
and I match. You want more than that?
But that's a bit defeatist, no? I think I can expect somewhat more from myself before going
belly-up. So I'm working on it.
i feel similarly so i can provide no useful tips (unlike the closet organization problems.... you've seen my drawers i am a bit obsessed).
ReplyDeletei find jewelry baffling-- i love necklaces, i buy necklaces, but i never think to put them on. i even compliment others on their necklaces and think - huh, i should wear mine more. but alas - they make rare appearances.
i have sort of solved the ring-bracelet problem by wearing the same ones every day.... but i realize this is a bit of a lame solution...
my earring dilemma is totally different - i think that my earrings never look good with my glasses... so i only tend to wear them when i am not wearing my glasses. this is problematic given that it leaves 3 discrete activities: fancy occasions (no glasses so i can wear earrings), the gym and field work. clearly it would be odd to break out the earring repertoire for the YMCA...so i end up wearing my pearl studs each and every day.
this results in my necklaces and earrings mostly serving as decorations in my bedroom and every once in a while something for bogart & sinatra to become fascinated with...
if you make a break through please share
Oh, Becca - when will you write us a detailed account of your drawers, along with pictures?! That is something that must be shared - though Denise might have a heart attack! xoxo Jess
