In between the soot-stained bags lining my closet, above the pile of scuffed flats and pumps that spill out from the shoe rack, near the messy stacks of CDs, old letters, and empty envelopes I keep (hoping to recycle them one day), a bunch of pristine, neatly-arranged accessories are immaculately stored in plastic containers. No, they’re not for me, although most of them have been purchased with my hard-earned money, while some were gifts from designer friends.

Although the rainy days that we’ve been experiencing lately have tempted many people to hide behind comfortable clothing, fluffy sweaters they’ve had for ages, or not-so-sleek water-resistant gear, don’t let the gloomy weather dampen your style. Whether it’s just coffee with friends, hanging out, or even a nice dinner or night out – don’t pass up the chance to dress up a little. Throw on a little color and splash some life into your otherwise gray surroundings.

She looked to women like Jackie O (the former first lady, not this writer) for sartorial cues. She made sure her clothes were pressed and clean before pulling them over her coiffed hair. And she never exposed her undergarments – not even under threat of duress – in public.

It’s back to the daily grind and – if you’re lucky – the daily shopping sprees with Mom to stock up on all the necessary supplies for school. That could mean anything from books and notebooks to a wardrobe update. For those who aren’t blessed with such benevolent parents, a little DIY style could breathe new life into a couple of old things.
