Making resolutions is part of the fun of entering a brand new year! Even if we never actually stick to them… hmm, but I digress. There are times when we can stick to them and the year is all the more better for it. Resolutions can be about all sorts of things, whether it’s to do with your health, your social life, your work or your education. But we here are all about fashion, so if you’re looking to add a few fashion-related resolutions to your New Year’s list we thought we’d give you some ideas.

Potential resolutions:

  • I will not leave the house without looking amazing. (No, that doesn’t mean you have to glam up just to go to go to the post office. It means that you should never be wearing something you’d be embarrassed to be seen in. It means, that if someone saw you now they’d think you were effortlessly amazing. All the time.)
  • I will get out of my fashion rut. (Wearing all black every day? Resolve to inject some colour into your wardrobe in 2008! Sick of wearing the same comfy flats every day then decide to start wearing sexy heels.)
  • I will organise my wardrobe better.
  • I will save up and get that classic thing (bag, suit, pair of boots, whatever…) that I’ve always wanted.
  • I will fix all the clothes in my ‘to mend’ pile. (If you’re like me and you always seem to have one, that is. E.g. just needs a button replaced, just needs the hem taken up… if you know you’ll never get around to doing it yourself, resolve to take them to your local tailor!)

So there you go, some ideas on fashionable New Years resolutions to help make your 2008 more stylish, more confident and more fun! Tell us in the forums what your resolutions are – be they fashion-related or otherwise.

Some people's wardrobes are about a small selection of pieces that all fit within one aesthetic - Tania Braukamper isn't such a person. With a wardrobe that spans three different rooms, her approach to fashion is a mixture of current-season key pieces mixed with vintage finds she's sourced on innumerous shopping trips around the world's more cultured capitals. Despite a disparate approach to shopping, Tania is adamant that the key to mixing vintage with new season is to stick to key looks and colours that work for oneself. And it's a theory that she works into her writing for Fashionising.com, where she serves as the publication's Editor.
