As always, an excellent approach to what we keep in our home! I’m slowly, slowly clearing out all the things we’ve accumulated and just don’t use but might need one day! There’s a few items of clothing that are going after reading this! Life is now! x
Thanks Rachel! What kinds of things are you letting go of, besides the clothing? And do you find that clothing is easier than the other things or harder? I'm always curious what other people are holding on to "just in case"---especially when it turns out that everyone is holding on to the same thing. Why? Whyyyyyyy? hahahaha
Things I don’t wear but have hung on to just in case but are now hugely out of style! I hang on to things in case my weight changes, but you’re right, if it does I’m going to want new things! There’s on dress in particular that I’ve worn once in the 15 years I’ve bought it. Time for it to go!
Out of style is a real thing. I had a red dress that I wore a lot--wore it out really. But still had it hanging in my closet even though I wasn't going to wear it again because it had seen better days. But still, I had it. Then one day during a clear out, I tried it on and I was like....oh yeah. This is not even in style anymore. I would never wear this, even if it wasn't stretched out in weird places and shiny in others. It would look ridiculous even if it were in pristine condition. I actually wondered if I could even donate it because it was just so far out of fashion.

It’s tough to let these things go! But I’m always amazed at how quickly I forget about things that I’ve hung onto for so long
Totally agree. It's a weird thing to realize how quickly and wonderfully your life can just move on.
