Denise-
I love this post because I am at a point where I am really
trying to streamline my wardrobe. As an RN I am in scrubs half the
week, the other half of the week I am usually doing "dailys", which
around here amounts to yard work, dog walking, family time, etc. My
wardrobe, when looking at it, can be very fantasy based. Apparently I
think I am a classically dressed, well heeled business woman by day and a
funky trendsetter who goes clubbing by night. I am neither of those
things; I'm just not as fancy as I think I am. I live in a smallish town in central MN. We are considering
moving out of town to a lake property, which means my life will be even
more casual. I need to create a wardrobe that is more congruent with my life.
To this end, I have been purchasing more funky casual pieces: cool jeans, booties, interesting and well made tees and tops, and tennies. These pieces are more "me" an are seeing use. What am I getting rid of? Dress pants, fancy footwear, lots of dresses. I very occasionally have to dress business casual so I did save a couple pairs of impeccable trousers and lovely tops.
Jeez- what a process! So while watching your paint dry, I am painting my own closet too Thanks for the updates an analyses, it actually is interesting!
