Welcome to the room of Rochelle Owusu- Antwi: enter if you dare...

Ola,

Welcome to my blog which will showcase the plight of a girl seriously in need of a long overdue spring [summer, autumn as well as winter] clean. Over my last two years of studying, hoarding and shopping I have acquired more earthy possessions than most girls who realistically do have not enough wardrobe space should EVER own: shoes, bags, dresses, skirts, Red Indian headdresses, scarves, hats, coats, cardis. You name it, I'm sure to have it. My mother looks at my collection at our family home and groans. She has NO IDEA the amount I have tucked away out of her sight 300 miles away...

Part of the reason I have acquired the sheer amount of clothes I own is this due to this extreme thriftiness I have mastered.

My general rule of thumb throughout the years when it comes to purchasing any fashion items is never to go above a certain price for a certain item. For example: shoes- no more than £30, dresses- no more than £15...maybe £20 tops if it's really nice and I can buy anything on sale as long as it's at a reasonably discounted price.

Alas, unlike the fictional and incredibly lucky Carrie B I do not have a wealthy Mr. Big willing to buy a swanky apartment with a humongous walk-in closet...although truth be told, I would settle for an extra wardrobe from Ikea for any potential suitors *wink*.

People say a room is an extension of your personality and undoubtedly an intimate space and integral part of a person's life: why I thought it would be a great idea to open it up to the world wide web is beyond me, but I have so enjoy.

And thanks for joining me on this journey of self discovery as I walk through the chaos that is my bedroom and attempt to streamline my belongings into a manageable load. I am well aware it is going to be tough but with the constraints of time and my imminent graduation the time has come to sort it out: EVERYTHING MUST GO.
