Ma342- we are pretty identical in life/situation. My office is also on the business end and I have 75 peices. I used to have nearly 300 items or more of just clothing, so this feels minimalist in a way to me. I expect to get down to 65 or perhaps even less items of clothing in the future- I too have areas of waste, but I like everything I have and refuse to purge for purging's sake. I also love variety and refuse to do a teensy color palette or all basics, it's not 'me'.
