In my attempt to de-clutter my life this year, I started a massive clean out of my room. I never realised exactly how many clothes I have until I pulled everything out of the wardrobe and tried to sort through it all. It's been a much bigger job than I initially thought it would be! (Two weeks later and I still haven't finished) Along with this came the idea to start a blog shop, basically somewhere for me to put my new Canon EOS 500D to use and perhaps get rid of the copious amount of clothing that has piled up over the years.
So here's to the beginning of La Friperie and to the beginning of a more organised life for me!
1&2. My new garment rack (because even after the clean out my clothes still don't all fit in my wardrobe)
3. Lovin' my newly organised wardrobe - makes life just that little bit easier
