Help Wanted!

I am going through my closets full of old and new clothes. I have a ton of clothes but just like most ladies, I look in my closet and say I have nothing to wear. So, I will put together outfits and ask for opinions. I need to purge lots of clothing for sure. So, I expect honesty!

Yay or Nay?  I have had this shirt for a very looooong time.  hmmm....

Red cashmere turtleneck sweater.  Kind of a classic piece.  But I never really pick this one to wear.  Is this a keeper?  Is it classic or is it out of style?

How do you like my statuesque pose? 

This sweater has been a big problem for me.  I bought it because I love this pastel blue color.  It is a Jessica Simpson sweater and I didn't even buy it on sale.  Which is truly a big deal for me because I am a bargain shopper.  But I have a hard time wearing it because it seems to fit funny.  Or maybe I am wearing it wrong. I am going to post a few more pictures of it so you can see what I mean. 


It just won't stay in place.  It keeps going up in the front and falling in the back.  What the heck is going on with this sweater???

I am a little discouraged because although I am getting many views on my blog, I am not getting any comments.  And I need advice on this stuff!!!  It makes me wonder if people look at the blog and think this is dumb and leave it or is there a problem with how I have it set up? 

Anyways,  here is today's fashion issue...




Look 1


Look 2

Looks 1 and 2 are a little similar.  Same boots and jeans.  Look 1 has an orange zipper sweater and Look 2 has a rust turtleneck with a scarf.  I think I like look 2.  Should I just get rid of the sweater in look 1 since it is close to the look 2?  It is a nice sweater.  What if I really wanted it one day? 

Also, is the scarf too long in look 2?


Any comments on this one?

I am on the line with this one.  I don't like it without a scarf because it emphaSIZEs my little belly.  I love the striped sleeves.  I could really use some advice on this one.

I like this cable knit sweater from Victoria Secret.  But I never wear it.  I think it is a classic piece, though.  Or is it?



I got the purse at TJ Maxx about a month ago.  Haven't used it yet.  But I intend to.

None of this jewelry is a set but it all matches pretty good.  I think that the earrings would be too much if I wear the neclase. 

Is this outfit a keeper or an out of style purge?

I like this one.  I actually bought this at a store that I thought I would never buy anything from because I always thought they had clothes for the older ladies.  I used to call it the teacher store. No offense to the teachers out there.  I have some very stylish teacher friends.   Maybe I am getting old.  Now I find lots of shirts and jewelry that I like there. 


So, I guess maybe my question for my readers should be "Is this an old lady shirt? " and " would you wear it?"

Ok, this one is a no brainer for me.  Purge, purge, purge.  This sweater has been around since college and I have probably worn it 3 times.  Btw, college is over 10 years ago. 



It is a wool sweater in excellent condition. But not even a pretty neclase can make me choose this sweater over other sweaters in my closet.

Bu - Bye sweater.  Hello cleaner closet.

Ok, I really like this one.  I haven't worn the shawl (poncho?) since fall.  Again, it was shoved way in the back and I forgot about it.  Would it be better with skinny jeans and brown boots?  But I only have dark skinny jeans and I kind of like the Earthy colors with the light colored jeans.  Here are some accessories:






So, I would love opinions on how this outfit is put together.  Positive and negative.  Constructive criticism is great.   I am going to a country music concert this weekend and I was thinking about wearing this so I need opinions soon :)

Here is the first outfit. 

I don't know how to rotate the picture yet.  This sweater is from American Eagle.  I feel like it is borderline out of style but I really like the neckline and I have always loved burgandy clothes.  Maybe because of my love of vino :) 

Here are the shoes:



Add the purse...




I got the purse TK Maxx in Birminham, England.  Not TJ Maxx, TK Maxx. 

Ok, so is this outfit a keeper?  I haven't worn the sweater ever.  I have had it for over a year.  But it wasn't really in a visable spot in my closet.
