Your wardrobe request has NOT been forgotten; some are just more difficult than others.Don't hesitate to post a comment with a specific wardrobe request.

Wardrobe: carefully curated and deliberately distilled for warm coloring

The lovely Kate asked for a wardrobe "rich medium brown, tan/caramel/cognac, and army green. For the colors any mix of light olive green, mustard yellow, orange, teal, plum, and terra cotta.".

Remember, if there's something special you'd like to see in a wardrobe, just leave me a comment and I'll put it on the list!

A capsule wardrobe of blue & grey, based on abalone shell jewelry

Someone brilliantly requested that I build them a wardrobe based on the colors of the abalone shell. With the inspiration I got from looking at abaloneshelljewelry.com, I built the following:

Thanks so much for the FASCINATING request; I hope you like the results.
