With the issue of having nothing to wear coming up too often these days, I've decided to do a closet cleanup. I made two piles: one to consign, and another to donate. The pile to donate has been left in the wealth area of the house for about 4 weeks (I know that because I put it there when Alberto came from Buenos Aires and now, after 4 weeks he is going back there and thus I know the pile spent a little over 4 weeks in wealth area) and now I should donate it within next few days. Feng Shui thing...
Anyways, with most unused clothes out of the closet I finally got room to breathe and can make some serious changes.
I've made a list of criteria a piece of clothing has to meet in order to stay in the closet. Here they are:
1) Each bottom has to go with at least 5 tops
2) Any new purchase has to match with at least 3 items already owned
Also there is a list of general closet rules:
1) 75% of all clothes has to be worn on regular basis with the remaining 25% can consist of clothes worn on occasion
2) 75% of the closet should be in solid colors and only 25% can be prints
3) 60% of the clothes should be work clothes, 20% family time clothes, 20% sports and recreation clothes, and 5% evening wear
I feel bad because I kinda broke one of my rules the other day when I bought two adorable Nine West print dresses
