Good luck with SYC! I intend to buy a lot less than I did in 2013 but I know I will need to buy some new things for spring/summer. </p> <p>Your pups are precious! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130959 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 01:58:47 +0000 Windchime 1130959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an achievement--it must feel great to look at a closet of items you know you can wear.<br /> Your furkids are adorable. My DH assumes the same pose in his Stickley recliner, with our Siamese on his lap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130862 Tue, 07 Jan 2014 00:03:08 +0000 Missey 1130862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everyone...it does feel great to "clean house"!&nbsp; It was a perfect job for a day like today.</p> <p>Sheila- we have always had at least one dog.&nbsp; These two are our newest...two puppies at once!&nbsp; In hindsight, I don't know that I'd recommend it ;)&nbsp; They are both super sweet and neither are a breed we have owned before.&nbsp; Freya is a springer spaniel and Angus is a long haired miniature dachshund.&nbsp; If you're looking for a small dog, well, he's been just a treat!&nbsp; Socialization and training is the key with all dogs.&nbsp; I don't know that I could ever be without one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130854 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 23:51:53 +0000 unfrumped 1130854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job!<br />One doesn't have to be on complete SYC to still benefit from doing a lot more outfit creation and enjoy wearing. Ha, you have a lot of boots but I'm gradually learning the benefits of a great bootie/shootie capsule, since they are still going strong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130807 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 23:07:14 +0000 Sheila 1130807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice work, you are inspiring me...think I'll do some serious decluttering in my closet tomorrow when my husband is teaching. One more thing -- I am totally envious of your handsome-looking canines! We have been debating for 2 years about getting one ourselves and yours look like they really enhance your life just by being there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130800 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 23:02:36 +0000 Beth Ann 1130800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous work!&nbsp; </p> <p>I have a goal to use what I have more creatively, too.&nbsp; I do plan to "refresh" my wardrobe as I move through the winter and into spring, buying just a few new things and replacing as needed.&nbsp; I find that that approach, much like allowing oneself just a bit of chocolate every day, keeps me satisfied and my budget (and closet) intact! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130727 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 21:49:51 +0000 lyn* 1130727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats!!!!

I too am trying to shop my closet for a significant (one year????) while. I have lots of stuff and I want to see if I can make it work as well. Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130682 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 21:24:12 +0000 Sarah A 1130682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats on your closet work today! I too get great temptation for pretty new things here at YLF but want to join you and others on at least some version of not shopping SO much in 2014. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130679 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 21:21:44 +0000 Janet 1130679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congrats! I actually enjoy the process&nbsp;if I have a good block of time to dedicate to it. But then I'm kind of a geek about loving organization and neatness. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130678 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 21:21:34 +0000 Missey 1130678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glory,&nbsp; I am the same.&nbsp; I see Angie's posts on trends, other members posts, etc and I all of a sudden need it.&nbsp; As I was gong through my stuff, I realized that I likely already have "it".&nbsp; I am really going to try to do a thorough and exhaustive search through my own things for "new" looks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130664 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 21:10:10 +0000 Glory 1130664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great pics! Congrats on your purge. Shopping your own closet is a great idea. I would love to join you in buy nothing for 2014 but doubt I would have the will power for even one month. My biggest downfall is drooling over items on these blogs, and believe it or not - grocery shopping where Joe Fresh is located. Yikes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130641 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 20:53:30 +0000 Isabel 1130641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY !!! &nbsp;They are not looking too supportive. &nbsp;: )&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130639 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 20:52:26 +0000 Thistle 1130639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/closet-edit-updateim-done-for-now#post-1130638 Mon, 06 Jan 2014 20:50:02 +0000 Missey 1130638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I found three bags of items to throw away and a good number of items to bring to resale/donate. It is really hard to edit when you live in a climate that has four very distinct seasons. Actual physical seasons, not just fashion seasons (although those seem pretty important too). I did not edit my warm weather items because those were just done last spring.</p> <p>What did I learn? I don't really think I have any wardrobe holes that need to be filled right now other than one pair of black pumps. I need to spend more time thoughtfully going through my wardrobe putting together looks instead of falling into the "I have nothing to wear" mantra. I don't really need anything at all. </p> <p>I have boots. Lots of boots.</p> <p>So, I am going to try to make my style goal not to buy anything new in 2014. I do have a few items on the way. I ordered a couple of metallic sweaters, booties (I know!), a pair of leather front pants, and black moto jeans. Beyond that, I think I can mix it up and up my game with what I've got. Wish me luck!</p> <p>I added some pics of what everyone else was up to while I slaved away. My hubby and son are home for the next two days...schools are all closed due to extreme cold temps. Angus, on my hubs lap, and Freya (not being helpful during the cull), couldn't be happier. The cat and the kid are holed up under a blanket together watching movies. I think I will join them. </p>
