Pagi ini saya membatin; “Kapan terakhir belanja baju ya?”
Jawabannya; Ages ago!

Pantesan! Mungkin karena sudah lama tidak upgrade koleksi, belakangan gue susah menentukan apa yang mau dipakai *alasan usang*. Tapi apakah gue benar-benar sudah harus menyediakan dana khusus untuk melakukan upgrade baju ya?

Coba test. Menurut salah satu majalah kecintaan saya, Glamour. Ada 10 Wardrobe Essentials yang (katanya) kalau dimiliki, si empunya dijamin tidak akan ketinggalan jaman.

Let see;

Item 1
Trench-Coat
whoait, kalau ini mah, nda akan berguna juga kalau di Jakarta! Terutama kalau musim panas (kemarau-red) berkepanjangan. Bisa ngebul pakai ginian sih.
Score: 0

Item 2
White button down shirt
Walau saya bukan pecinta kemeja-kemeja rapih. I think I have one, eh wait the one that I have is no longer appropriate to be called white. It was more like an offwhite now.
Score: 1/2

Item 3
Well-tailored work pants in neutral color like black, gray, navy
Panjang banget keharusannya. Ok I have several. Tapi hampir semua kekecilan, thanks to the 61kg periode that I’m in right now. But hey, I still have one.
Score: 1

Item 4
Black wool or cashmere turtleneck
Duh, memikirkannya aja bikin keringetan dan pliket. Jakarta lagi panas, and even if this turtleneck made of wool and cashmere is on sale, I would not buy it! Panas!!! Btw confession, I do have a cashmere/wool croped capuchon jacket, still it isnt turtleneck
Score: 0

Item 5
Perfect Pair of Jeans
Yes I do, but it is now one size too small due to the same reason that well-tailored pants doesn’t fit me.
Score: 1

Item 6
Little Black Dress
Haha…this item i’ve got lots of.
So score one please
Score: 1

Item 7
Daytime dress
Hum, if you count daster as a daytime dress then I’m save. hehe sepertinya bukan itu yang dimaksud ya?
Score: 0

Item 8
Simple Blazer
Not a big fan of “office look”, but then again I have to start investing on of those ‘oh so chic’ blazer I see on the display window. One day, if i can get over my ‘I dont like office look’ dillema.
Score: 0

Item 9
Slim fitting skirt that can be dressed up or down
Ok, untuk semua wanita berpinggul besar dan berpaha besar, slim anything, could be a major problem. Ya gimana bisa slim, wong memang bottom half of your body is, well…big. Anyhow I think I have on of those slim fitting thingy.
Score: 1

Item 10
Comfortable Pump in neutral color
YEssss…me like shoes, so got plenty of that
Score: 1

Gimana hasil testnya?
Well I think I got 5,5
Not bad eh? Jadi ini berarti should I do a shopping spree or not? Haha this test doesnt really answer my problem. Oh well, it’s good to asses my wardrobe and seeing the result and compared with others who took the test;
Most of us don’t need trench coat and a cashmere turtleneck afterall.

*masih bimbang, harus belanja belanji nda ya?*
