I started this blog to as a journey of developing style.  I talk about my goals in this post, but here they are again:

-       Figure out which colors/cuts fit my body type: I’ve figured out a few of these and have gotten comfortable.  Perhaps TOO comfortable.  Don’t look at me like that!  I embrace change dammit!
-       Develop an archive of outfits:  There have been numerous occasions where I thought – that outfit is awesome!  And then…never wear it again.  This will be a way to capture what I’ve worn and how it looked on me.
-       Prove to myself that I don’t need to constantly shop to have a solid, mix & match closet of clothes:  This may be a delusion on my part.  But, I figure that the blog will keep me honest, and also will help me shop my own closet.
-       Develop a system for adding pieces to my closet: A blog archive will help me find the gaps in my wardrobe – and the unnecessary.  (I’m talking to YOU, frilly pink prom dress!)
-       Re-develop my writing skills: OMG, have they gone to heck in a handbasket.  I used to pride myself on my writing ability.  But, similar to when I took 2 years taking math and computer science courses, they are currently sorely lacking.  (What, you mean I can’t use grep to parse your dialogue so I only have to selectively listen?)
       -   Capture memories! And finally, since I will be capturing bits of my life everyday, this will be  
           a diary of my life as long as this blog is in existence. 

I'm so excited to get started in this community!  Stay tuned for further updates!
