WHO ELSE HAS BOUGHT A NEW TOP BECAUSE YOU “LOVED IT SO MUCH” THEN MONTHS LATER IT STILL HASN’T BEEN WORN?
We’ve all been there! There has been a time in our life we’ve walked in our closet looking for something to wear only to be reminded of the items we purchased but still haven’t worn, tags still attached and all.
When we make impulse purchases we end up with a closet of one offs that we only have one other item to wear with it, if even that.
When we make impulse purchases we end up with a closet full of clothes yet still have NOTHING to wear. WHY are we like this?!
In 2013, after losing 20lbs, purging 90% of my closet and only having a clothing budget of $150 a month I was in desperate need of a high functioning wardrobe. That is when, why and how I created my #1 shopping rule, The Rule of 5.
I knew in order to still buy quality pieces I loved I was going to have to get creative (and disciplined) and that’s exactly what I did. Every single purchase I made for the following year was well thought out and 100% intentional. I had no room for impulse purchases, the function of my wardrobe couldn’t afford it.
I bet you don’t like throwing your money away, do you?
We all deserve to hit our financial goals (and best wardrobes) and a great starting point is to become more intentional with what we spend our money on.
I want you to be great in everything you do so I wrote a 24 page book to fully share The Rule of 5 with you. There’s even worksheets for you to brainstorm your goal wardrobe!

Sass up your sweatshirt dress with OTK boots and an on trend hat.
This look was created 2 years ago, I still have all pieces.
*All items worn are old*
For a city chic look I paired my favorite sweatshirt dress with a thrifted oversized blazer, classic Nike Cortez and MCM Clutch.
We know I don’t tailgate but I feel like layering your sweatshirt dress with a puffy vest or bomber jacket with sneakers is what you’d wear to tailgate.
Both of these looks I styled 2 years ago. Everything is super old.
Where are we going?? Target! What do we want?? Starbucks!! Obviously, that’s where we’re wearing this or to run errands, the kids soccer game.
One of my favorite ways to wear this sweatshirt dress I styled last year with this Missoni Cardigan and lace-up booties. It’s a mix of casual, I’m going to work and chic. I bought this cardigan during the original release in 2011 but it was just re-released for the 20th anniversary collection.
Thank-you so much, Julia…..I really needed to see how to wear my sweatshirt dress. It’s much longer on me as I am only 5′ tall & makes it difficult to sass it up. I’ve thought of cutting the length a few time but afraid of ruining it. I will definitely try your suggestions. Thanks again♡
