Planning and Storing Your Autumn Collection
& #WowOnWednesday
If you're like me and short on wardrobe space, your autumn/fall and winter clothes may be stored away. I make sure I always have a few lightweight cardigans, wraps and jackets to act as transitional items before the coats and thick jumpers are brought down from the attic.
In this post I'm going to cover autumn/winter trends and what I'm looking for, before turning to the subject of making our existing wardrobe work better for us by understanding what we need. Get yourself a cup of something, it could be a long one.

I'm going to explain a few ways of camouflaging these issues, and what's available if you decide to get professional treatment.
