Instead of what I wore last week which was a whole lot of undocumented sweatpants and sweatshirts. I decided that this would be a What I Wore This Year: My Top 10 Wardrobe Pieces of 2020.

In other words, the 10 pieces that I wore the most.

I’ll get back into the habit of daily outfit postings this week, now that the girls’ Christmas break is over and we will have some semblance of a routine again.

Some of these pieces are low stock or sold out now, but there are often other colourways or similar styles that would check all the boxes too.

That means I have a lot of cleaning to do before bed since they will be in our unit anywhere between 9am and 5pm.
