I very a lot need a “contemporary begin” with my fashion (clothes, possibly hair, and residence decor). I’m turning 30 in three weeks, began a brand new job in April, will graduate with my masters in December, and am coming off of a breakup. I’ve possibly $1,000 to throw on the drawback (I’m money flowing grad faculty, so can’t spend too an excessive amount of).
I don’t love my residence, it’s tremendous however not nice however it’s reasonably priced in a neighborhood that I LOVE. I signed an 18 month lease renewal in February, so I’ve obtained a few yr left to embrace it. Fortunately I’m set on furnishings, however I couid use ti reorganize it / purge / redecorate a bit.
I’ve an appointment for highlights as a birthday present to myself (my first time ever dying my hair!). I’m debating attempting lash extensions or treating myself to extra frequent skilled manicures this summer time. I wish to change my look, not too drastically, however one thing. And, I wish to really feel extra put collectively.
I like style and have been on a finances, so my garments and equipment are a mixture of cheaper manufacturers or thrifted objects with the very occasional splurge. I’ve handled some medical stuff over the past 18 months and am (lastly) on the opposite finish of it (I hope), however my weight has been in all places consequently. I can’t resolve if I ought to embrace the place I’m now and purge my closet, solely hold what I actually love and that match, and put money into some new, nicer items or if I ought to wait and see the place my physique settles out. I do know ready makes extra sense, however I really feel like I’ve been on this dangerous slog of medical stuff and clothes not being what i need for thus lengthy now that I don’t wish to hold ready. And, FWIW by nicer I imply Madewell or BR, not designer!
I assume my life simply felt so unsettled the previous few years as I’ve identified a whole lot of issues have been a) not proper (previous job, residence, medical stuff) or b) not settled (being in class, being in an extended distance relationship). I actually wish to go into this subsequent yr if my life feeling extra everlasting and put collectively and embrace popping out the opposite finish doing alright!
Unsure what I’m asking, nearly in search of a information ir solutions of the best way to resolve what modifications to make?
