Not a color I usually wear so it'll be interesting to see how I can use it in outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-closet-clean-up#post-1418948 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 07:40:02 +0000 Dimity 1418948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always seem to have a little pile for the donation box, but I was thinking the other day that I might switch around the strategy and buy some&nbsp;of the&nbsp;items&nbsp;on my shopping list&nbsp;before I get rid of things because I'd create holes if I got rid of things first. Never done this before but I'm pretty good at getting rid of things and so I don't have much I don't use. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-closet-clean-up#post-1418939 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 06:03:35 +0000 MsMary 1418939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i></i>I love the fuchsia bag!&nbsp; And I am always in favor of a nice purge.&nbsp; I try to weed out as I go but every once in a while a big clean-out is a great idea, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-closet-clean-up#post-1418910 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 04:07:48 +0000 K.M. 1418910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wasn't necessarily going to do a wardrobe clean-up, but after reading your post, yes I will! I did a purge a couple of months ago but I don't think it was enough. And another vote here for this gorgeous bag. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-closet-clean-up#post-1418873 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 03:13:00 +0000 frannieb 1418873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><i></i>I am reorganizing right now - &nbsp;the new year seemed like a great time to do this process. And go for it with the fuschia bag - I wear all neutrals (black and gray) and carry a bright red or bright pink purse. Love how it adds a pop of color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-closet-clean-up#post-1418868 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 02:45:19 +0000 Suz 1418868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a great time to reassess and rearrange. And I am <b>TOTALLY</b> in favour of the fuchsia bag. Gorgeous. I love a bright bag for a change and it's remarkable how well they work into a wardrobe, especially if you ordinarily wear a lot of neutrals.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-closet-clean-up#post-1418839 Mon, 05 Jan 2015 01:44:49 +0000 deb 1418839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do my clothing weeding on a regular basis. When I see it need to go, it goes. Glad you were able to get yours all done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-closet-clean-up#post-1418807 Sun, 04 Jan 2015 23:51:13 +0000 rachylou 1418807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am, but like always I'm totally pressed for time. I thought I'd have more because I actually had some holiday. Anyways, once again I'm stuck on the fact that I like my clothes. Need to weed! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-year-closet-clean-up#post-1418793 Sun, 04 Jan 2015 23:26:21 +0000 shipskitty 1418793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ladies,</p> <p>It's been a very busy year and I haven't&nbsp;posted at all although I've dipped in from time to time. I've had some precious time to myself over the last week (and another week to go whee!)&nbsp;and I've spent some of&nbsp;going through my wardrobe and drawers and doing a bit of a New Year's spring clean and reorganise to see what is worn out, what is missing and what I'm just not working for me&nbsp;anymore.</p> <p>It has been a really interesting exercise and I was interested to see how my wardrobe has been evolving over time. Plus so nice to be able to see everything organised and tidily arranged. I've been a bit slack this year and things were in a real muddle and it was becoming hard to find anything.</p> <p>I have to say I am loving the new&nbsp;finds feature (see what I missed by not being on regularly this year!) So useful to be able to put images of similar clothes items to what you own in there and look at them as a set or capsule to see the holes and get a feel for the mood and styles they evoke as a whole. It is still a work in progress though.</p> <p>It is summer here in Australia so I'm loving seeing what you have all been wearing in the autumn and winter as I start to think about what I will be wearing. I think a wildcard for me will be a bright fushia pink&nbsp;bag. I've always stuck to neutrals before like black, grey, brown or taupe but I am really feeling bored with my current options.&nbsp;</p> <p>Anybody else doing a new year's stocktake, cleanout and re-org?</p> <p>Liz</p>
