I love the convenience of on-line shopping...but sometimes it's hit or miss for fit...trying on clothes at Nordstrom or Macy's (and Talbots, which is a little further away from me, but I love that store) to make sure they fit right or at least I know what I need to alter helps a lot. That being said...sometimes tops and sweaters are pretty safe to order online. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-year-and-a-new-closet#post-113779 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 15:52:26 +0000 Beth 113779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eek, I didn't think to take pictures. DH came by near the end of the Great Purge of 2010 and commented on how many pairs of pants I have. He's right...and it really underscores how uninspired my work wear is (pants and sweaters...yawn).</p> <p>AJ, definitely take some pics. Put some music on and get in there:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-year-and-a-new-closet#post-113762 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 07:42:20 +0000 AJ 113762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're my YLF hero of the day! This is a task that I'm dreading but I know I NEED to do it! Did you take a before and after pic? If I clean mine out, I'll take some before and after pics and post it on my closet door as a reminder not to let it get in that state again! It's bad...REALLY BAD. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-year-and-a-new-closet#post-113760 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 07:31:44 +0000 CK 113760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is on my list of things to do this coming week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-year-and-a-new-closet#post-113745 Sat, 02 Jan 2010 04:02:40 +0000 Angie 113745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Big pat on the back!

That's wonderful! I really need to do a second pass at my closet...but I hate to toss things when I don't have good replacements.</p> <p>Great start to twenty-ten! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-year-and-a-new-closet#post-113704 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 21:59:52 +0000 Louise 113704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fabulous start to your new year. A wardrobe with a few clothes that fit is better than a wardrobe full of ones that don't and now you'll be able to see exactly what's missing x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-new-year-and-a-new-closet#post-113703 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 21:55:26 +0000 JewelryGirl 113703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW - Good for you!

Ended up with a pile of sad, outdated clothes (what was I thinking...oh my), clothes that didn't fit and the ones that didn't flatter. I even purged a few sentimental items.</p> <p>Then I reorganized everything that was left. It's amazing how I can "see" my clothes better! On a few occasions I started thinking that I wouldn't have any clothes left, and then I reminded myself that you lovely YLF ladies would remind me that I wasn't wearing them anyway:)</p> <p>I even attacked the shoes and lingerie drawer. Whew! </p>
