top favourite looks

The other day I wore an outfit that I thought I really looked good in, until I collided with a full length reflection of myself in a window. To be honest, I wasn't all that surprised. I mean what else would one expect to have happen if they get dressed every morning without a full length mirror? A full length mirror they have been meaning to get ever since they recently moved into a new place (and by recent, they mean in January). But things like buying linen and looking for a black dress have always presented them with such enormous obstacles that they always end up walking past where they are meant to go buy the mirror, straight into a Sunglass Hut or towards a Stuttafords or @Home. 
They have no focus. And by they I mean me.
You can't blame me though, because up until that moment I have managed to get away with brainstorming outfits in my head, hoping that they work out when I put them on and not having one bad wardrobe day (unless its laundry day). However, since that day I have started to seriously think about cataloging my wardrobe according to outfits and capturing the looks. Remember that scene in Clueless when Cher is getting dressed in the morning? Oh how I wish I could do that sometimes. 
All of this got me thinking of what my favourite outfits were for the Glamour Today I Am Wearing feature I recently did. They are going solidly into the memory bank. Until I buy a mirror, or a handsome man walks into my flat and just delivers one. Any takers?
