time to come clean



i'm such a hoarder.

scrap that - i'm a lazy, sentimental and incorrigible hoarder in denial. being a right brainer doesn't help much.

i spent the whole of today clearing my wardrobe. i sort my clothes in "keep", "sell" and "donate/throw" boxes. it's really hard, but i tell myself i have to be a ruthless wardrobe culler.

what about you? what are your tried and tested rules for wardrobe culling?

i love your collection of dresses and nice pretty pastels. I'm the same way, i hoard like no other. But i've managed to give to my friends and to the salvation army every year when I have to clean out/move out. It's a nice way of keeping myself in check! love your blog btw!

Any non-profit organization helping those in need is a good place to give too.

I used to have tons of clothes in my closet. Then I went through and asked myself "would I wear this right now"?. I ended up getting rid of almost everything.

Of course now my problem is the opposite. I have 4-5 items in my closet at a time(usually handmade or very careful purchases)that I wear into the ground. Then I've nothing to wear...Haha!

I love the pic of your wardrobe, the colours are so soft and pretty! I think you should either keep them all or pass them on to me x
