I'm hoping to show the forum new shoe purchases so I don't miss tightness!<br /> Editing down was a goal, I think looking at how old some of my stuff is I need to do more. Hope you had a good break x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2018-numbers--thanks-deb-and-jenn#post-1987807 Wed, 02 Jan 2019 08:03:37 +0000 Jane 1987807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done with the numbers! You have very high retention on your purchases, good for you and good for the planet! Nice to have a good clear out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2018-numbers--thanks-deb-and-jenn#post-1987806 Wed, 02 Jan 2019 08:02:26 +0000 Jenni NZ 1987806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>2017 was deliberately a lower numbers shopping year- my first year on YLF, and I tried so hard to be PPP. One item wore out I wore it so much ( cheaper olive cotton trousers) and the other was a pair of black patent sandals bought in Noosa, Australia for $50 on sale. Angie noticed they were too tight in the toe box. She was so right! They felt OK in the shop but oh so uncomfortable, I have given away after wearing twice </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2018-numbers--thanks-deb-and-jenn#post-1987805 Wed, 02 Jan 2019 07:57:31 +0000 Sal 1987805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy New Year Jenni!!</p> <p>Well done on editing down your wardrobe which I know was a goal, as well as buying pieces that work well for you.</p> <p>Shoes are hard to get right sometimes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/2018-numbers--thanks-deb-and-jenn#post-1987804 Wed, 02 Jan 2019 07:54:23 +0000 Jenni NZ 1987804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's Jan 2 and tomorrow I head back to work. I have done lots more clearing of the old house in this time as not away. Counted some numbers thanks to Deb. Have removed 42 pieces in 2018, some from holding zone, 7 older than 2008, the rest all past 10 years. Almost half had over 30 wears. Only 2 items had almost no wears, both shoes. Too high or tight.<br /> I have 177 wardrobe items I count, 133 clothing and 44 pairs shoes.<br /> 5 are true vintage pre 1998.<br /> 22 are 1998-2010 inclusive.<br /> Like Deb, here are the numbers for the next years: still have, bought, removed.<br /> 2011: 10, 15-5.<br /> 2012: 14, 20-6.<br /> 2013: 19, 30-11.<br /> 2014: 14, 23-9.<br /> 2015: 25, 31-6.<br /> 2016: 22, 26-4.<br /> 2017: 16, 18-2.<br /> 2018: 29, 29-0.<br /> You can see I have done better in 2017 and 2018 thanks to YLF. Here is to more success in 2019! </p>
