i think i have a problem.
yes, folks. i, whitney caldwell, am admitting my out of control addiction to clothing.
so what is a twenty-something clothing addict do to remedy this situation?
answer: a full-blown closet cleanse.
i have a basic plan of action for this. here are the rules:
1. if i haven't worn it in 6 months or longer, good-bye.
2. if i've never worn it at all, and i'm "waiting for the right occasion" to wear it, see you later.
3. if it's strikingly similar to another item (i'm calling you out, three mustard-colored cardigans), best wishes.
4. if it does not fit, au revoir.
5. if it is picked, ripped, faded, or icky, peace.
6. if it is functional, can be worn with most of my other items, in good condition, and i get regular use out of it, congratulations, you made the cut!
this is phase I of the cleanse. once I separate all the things I no longer wish to keep, I will donate them. then, i will reorganize my greatly downsized closet to a navigable space. and finally (what i am most excited about!), i'm going to do a post on how to create 50 outfits out of only 18 pieces of clothing.
let's get started!
