Have you ever heard of decision fatigue? It boils down to the more decisions you make throughout the day, the worse they become because we only come with a finite amount of good decisions. It’s why Steve Jobs has a work uniform (the famous black turtleneck sweater) so he doesn’t need to decide what to wear every morning. When I embarked on my fashion journey, I found it overwhelming to mix and match items (it also didn’t help that my closet used to be filled with trendy pieces instead of staples) which resulted in me wearing very similar outfits multiple times.

Outfit Details For reference, I am 5ft/152.5cm and wear size US small/2-4 in tops, jackets, and blazers, and size US 26 or US 2 in bottoms. This post contains some affiliate links. Blouse: MOTF by Shein (size S; alternatives below). Blazer: Zara (size XS – sold out; similar below). Pants: Lululemon (size 4 – sold out; similar below).

Please swap out the Lululemon for jeans or trousers for a cleaner look! Shop the Look!

I knew I didn’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on a temporary wardrobe so I opted to do some thrifting (which is really a hit or miss) and shopping on Shein. I committed myself to stop shopping at Shein but knew I needed to save as much money as possible…

In 2022, I put a lot more effort into fashion and trying to find my style. After leaving very casual workplaces (literally no dress codes) and coming out of the pandemic, I found it fun to dress up! I work in the games industry and it’s a very casual environment so more often than not, my “business casual” is still more dressed up than the rest of the team. Here’s a roundup of all my captured 2022 outfits! Once my maternity leave ends, I need to make a note to document more! 2021 NYE: February 2022: March 2022: April 2022: May 2022: June 2022: July 2022: August 2022: September 2022: October 2022: November 2022: December 2022: Thoughts? I’m almost embarrassed…
