Wardrobe Weeding

Couple of days ago, my homegirl M came over for tea (which ended up a sleepover) and I decided to use the opportunity and pare down my overflowing wardrobe with our combined powers. I did not exactly cut down to 33 items, but at least 80% of my clothes did not make the cut. Most of them went to the Salvation Army, a couple of the soft muted boho hippie items that I somehow always get drawn towards but look awful in I gave to M, who has the right coloring to pull it off, and the almost fetish-y oddities went to afficionados who would appreciate the temporary lapses of my fashion judgment.

I love how I can now see all my clothes at one go, without having to delve into hanging mass. My clothes used to be packed so tight that smaller items, like tank tops, would simply disappear in between other stuff. I guess it also explains why I have 10 similar black tank tops. Even my hangers now have space between them. After eliminating the fluff, my correct colors now emerge and getting dressed and actually looking decent is so much easier now. Thanks M for your valuable help!

M thinks it can be weeded further, but there are just some things I still can't let go off. Guess I'm a work in progress!

Yay I’m so happy! My next project would be tackling my personal library, so stay tuned…
