It's easy to love something when it fits in a quick try-on! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-all-of-my-pants-for-fall#post-686107 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 15:06:16 +0000 Angie 686107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you LOVE all the pants that you tried on and kept? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-all-of-my-pants-for-fall#post-686075 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 14:24:57 +0000 ironkurtin 686075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This actually only took about 30 minutes - it was just the pants.</p> <p>GP, I didn't count the pairs. But I keep all my off-season clothing in file-sized plastic bins from Office Depot, and I have one full bin of fall/winter pants, plus 3 pairs that need tailoring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-all-of-my-pants-for-fall#post-686066 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 14:10:36 +0000 Lisa 686066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job! It's work to actually go through and try on everything in one's closet. Everytime I try to do this I loose speed after the first hour. And I'm guilty of the same thing Glory just did, I recently put a bunch of cardigans in the "to donate" pile as I am growing tired of them. Then I looked at my CPW spreadsheet and realized I could certainly go this fall and winter season with what I have, so back into the closet they went. I don't want to start shopping in circles again and be shopping to replace items that I donated that are still in good shape. I'm now going to try and look for one or two key tops to pair with my cardigans to "freshen them up" instead. And I just dove into the colored jeans trend which will really mix up my "old" cardigans for fall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-all-of-my-pants-for-fall#post-686017 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 12:12:10 +0000 Glory 686017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job and great approach. You have done what I am too afraid to do but is on my list for this week. I purged/cleaned everything in my closet except sweaters and pants! My challenge is that I put them in the out pile and then feel wasteful and bring them back in. Lets hope I am more disciplined this time around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-all-of-my-pants-for-fall#post-685979 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 07:23:54 +0000 goldenpig 685979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay for being disciplined and actually trying everything on! Just curious, how many pairs are you left with? As a fellow maximal wardrobe sister, I feel I can ask this without offending you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tried-on-all-of-my-pants-for-fall#post-685910 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 03:08:54 +0000 ironkurtin 685910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And eliminated exactly four pairs. I admit I was aiming for more, but everything does still fit (hurrah! And also, boo! I was hoping I'd lost a *bit* more weight). Even the ones I pitched still fit, but I forced myself to be super picky and these did look a bit too loved.</p> <p>Still, that means more new pairs went in than came out! How on earth can I wear all these pants?! Many of them are a "skinny" silhouette, so I think any pairs that don't get worn in the fall are destined to belong to someone else. </p>
