4 DAYS AND COUNTING DOWN TO #TRACYWEARSWOOL  100 DAY DRESS CHALLENGE:  GETTING READY  BY  CLOTHES PURGING — CLEARING OUT THE EXCESS CLOTHES IN MY CURRENT WARDROBE!

For those of you who haven’t heard…I have been invited to do a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool&  — and I am starting on 1/20/21.

Today’s goal:

  • COMPLETE inventory of what clothes I have now.
  •  Clothes purging: get rid of the excess to make way for new wardrobe choices

 

(And to see more of RAINEY… she has her own page & story HERE!)

I started with t-shirts.

This is what I had left… after I got rid of 7 shirts.  I felt bad… like I hadn’t accomplished much.  So I tossed out (rather put in the donation bag) 17 undershirts.  I don’t even know when I last wore one… I kept 2… just because it seemed right.

Next up… pants

This is actually the before photo of the pants.  I ended up tossing out 3 pairs of capris, and 2 long pants.  And I set aside 4 pairs of long pants that are too small — if they are still too small by March 1st… they will be donated.  Oh… and I kept the skirts and shorts.

Moving on to sweaters and sweatshirts.

There are actually more sweaters in the close — but this was just from my bags.  And this is a before photo — I ended up keeping 6 of the heavy sweaters, 4 sweatshirts, and 5 of the lighter weight sweaters. 

And now the real fun begins… I got my daughter to help via zoom, as I went through part of my closet…..

I FEEL PRETTY GOOD… LIKE I MADE SOME REAL PROGRESS.

day 40: down to the water

What do you wear when you go down to the water in the PNW?   When I think of going down to the water, down to the beach, I usually think of bathing suits, and shorts, sandals, sundresses, and towels.  I think of the smell of sunscreen and sandy blankets.  That...

day 39: ms pinky

Sometimes, I just feel in a pinky mood.   It is one of my favorite colors and something that I love to wear.  It tickles me *pinky* whenever I find something pinky -- that is the right pink. This one is a sophisticated pinky color. You may be wondering why I am...

day 38: time is on our side

I truly think that time is on our side -- it is how we use it that counts. I have enjoyed a lot of time, and I have wasted a lot of time.  And I guess it is what you do with it.  Some things seem like you are wasting time -- when really they are super important --...
