Pree's post yesterday sent me off to review my own numbers and how my own closet is matching up to it. I made some changes, after reviewing everything - increased the amount of sweaters, which the change of seasons has made obvious was way too small before. I reorganized how I was listing tops and pants and increased the total number of pants/jeans a tad to reflect reality.
The current total number is 228, which includes shoes and outerwear but doesn't include PJs or workout gear (except sneakers). Here's the whole list in case someone else finds it helpful:
