2024 Q4 Style Goals

At the start of the year, I set a few style goals for myself:

1. Continue to slowly build my wardrobe.
2. Find a tailor.
3. Only buy high quality, ethically-made, and local brands with a story.
4. Take more fit pics.

I’ve continued to slowly build out my wardrobe this year, filling in most of my gaps from the start of the year.

I found a tailor and got many of my pieces altered since.

I’ve continue to purchase consciously, mostly second hand, with a preference for local brands.

I’m taking more and more fit pics.

For Q4, here are my style goals:

1. Experiment with Black Ivy style. There’s something about Black Ivy style that speaks to me and I want to try incorporating it in my own style. A few of my style icons right now are Drew Joiner, Jason Jules, and Miles Davis.

2. Experiment with buying second hand clothing online. One of my most stylish friends, Minnow, shared with me his style secret: he buys most of his clothes on ebay and rarely spends more than $30 on a piece of clothing. “As long as you know your measurements, you should be fine,” he told me. I haven’t bought clothing online before and I feel apprehensive about it. But Minnow encouraged me to try it out.

3. Post weekly fit pics online. Now that I’m regularly taking fit pics. I want to document my style journey online.
