I have been doing some decluttering of my closet in an effort to keep our family closet neat and tidy. I was marveling at how a good majority of my wardrobe had been around for a while, quite a while in fact. Some of it was looking downright shabby.
I don’t particularly enjoy shopping and lately, if it’s not something I can throw into my cart at Wal.mart or Tar.get, it’s not finding its way into my closet. While I love being a mom of six, I don’t always want to look like a mom of six. Or I guess, the stereotype of what a mom of six looks like. I just don’t think I have to slog my way through the busy years of young kids in sweatpants!
While I realize there are far more important things to worry about than what clothing I’m going to wear for the day, I do think what I wear matters. If I put a skirt on, my kids notice right away. My job as mom is an important one and I should treat it as such.
To make a long story short, I needed some help in the clothing department. Enter Betty Beguiles. After answering a short questionnaire about my style preferences, she proceeded to put together a fabulous collection of clothing, just for me. Go check out what she did!
I highly recommend doing this for yourself or someone you love, it was a great experience, and Hallie was so easy and fun to work with. Do yourself a huge favor and give it a try, you won’t be sorry.
I love the outfits she put together for you!
How cool is that!!!!! I love what she put together!
Thank you so much, Jen! It was such a pleasure to work with you! I hope you’ll share pictures of your new outfits after they arrive.
I really want her to do some shopping for me! A little more weight to lose and I will be ready to overhaul my wardrobe.
One thing I have realized lately is that paying a little more for good quality clothes is definitely worth it. I have some skirts and dresses that I have acquired over the past two years that I love although now they are too big for me. Enter the tailor. It’s worth it to me to pay to have things altered if I really like it. Besides, I really can’t bear to give away a $75 skirt.
Kimberlie- go for it! Working with Hallie was so fun and easy. I agree that it is worth it to buy a few quality pieces that will last a long time.
what FUN! I really don’t like shopping that much anymore and this would be perfect… once I shed some much unwanted weight!! Now you need to post pics of you in all the clothes!
I completely understand thifeeling, especially the part if I can’t find it at Wal.Mart or Tar.get, it’s not going into my closet! Hallie does a wonderful job and your outfits are adorable!
WOW THat is way too cool! Thanks for sharing this at NOBH! i too have to clean out my closet!
I don’t think you need to lose any weight! I definitely recommend this
Thanks Mary, Hallie does do a wonderful job!
OH, how I need help in this area, as well. I find myself wearing things that I wouldn’t have been caught dead in five years ago. Mommy-hood has set in with a vengeance. Thanks for sharing. Your outfit are TOO cute!
How neat, Jen! Good for you:) My favorite item was that Magenta tunic. Hope you’ll share the live version of a final purchase or two! You are always full of sweet inspiration. I’m playing catch-up on a few of your posts…great photo of the kids playing in the water fountain.
I LOVE what she picked out for you, very chic and fun
