Lightningsavage’s Wardrobe – 2018

After asking around a bit, you guys told me that you wanted me to do a post highlighting my tiny wardrobe! So here we are.

I went through a major transition in my life this year, during which my taste, my weight, and my life completely changed. Due to this, I’ve almost completely sold or given away my entire wardrobe, simply because I’m not as into certain fashions or expressions as I used to be! So, here’s a comprehensive list of all the items I have in my closet that I intend to keep and use to build my wardrobe from now moving forward.

It is important to note that this post includes both brand and offbrand pieces for EGA and ouji, and some punk and visual kei items. I find it difficult to separate these fashions sometimes, and I wear a healthy mix of both a lot of the time. Pieces that I find I can easily separate from EGA/ouji have been separated.

Thanks for sticking with me throughout this post! As my first wardrobe post goes, I feel like it was pretty successful. Frankly, I’m quite pleased with how my wardrobe is shaping up. I want to grow my wardrobe this coming year, introduce more blouses and more jewel tones. I’m also hoping to start a roland jacket collection, and I have a few I have my eyes on—so keep an eye out for that in coming years.
