Happy New Year!!

by grechen on December 30, 2009 | SUBSCRIBE | TWITTER | FACEBOOK |

I’m not going to get into new years’ resolutions or anything like that – I really don’t believe in them – but I am going to make some small changes around here in the next year. 2010 will mark Grechen’s Closet’s SEVENTH year…WHOA…and I although I do feel like I’m constantly adapting to meet new needs & wants, there’s always room for improvement. (incidentally, if you guys have any suggestions at ALL, please let me know in the comments section)

One thing I’m definitely going to do is more video posts. My personal goal this year is to create & maintain my “ultimate closet” and maybe you’ll learn a bit from my journey; I’m nearly there now, but I thought it might be fun to do a video diary of my work. I’m also going to create an Inhabit NY color reference & James Perse reference library, and I really need to work on creating and maintaining the body I want (I gained 20 lbs in the last six months because of new birth control, which I’m going to change again, and hopefully eliminate any more weight gain and bloating) so I’ll feel better photographing myself and being in front of the video camera.

AND…I read a LOT of blogs everyday. I try to comment on the ones I find profound and meaningful, but I never get around to sharing them with you. I’m really going to try and post my favorite reads every week, but in addition, I’d love to also create a venue for other bloggers and visitors to post links to their favorite articles every week. And what better time to start than today:

Please leave a comment below with a link to your favorite blog posts this year, or ever…and if you’re a blogger PLEASE post links to your own work, and others’ if you want!! I will edit out the ones I don’t think are appropriate or relevant, but for the most part, I’ll approve all of the comments.

My favorite blog post this year of mine: Why I support Independent Designers

Please share yours!!

Style Within Means

Edited by Debutante Clothing

As the summer winds down and I start planning my Fall wardrobe, I’m overwhelmed by thoughts of how to create a wardrobe on a budget. This week, we have a ton of posts on how to find great style within a budget. Fashion Pulse Daily gives us the top denim looks under $50 and The Recessionista is reporting Anna Wintour is heading to Macy’s for Fashion Night Out. Enjoy!
