Body changes can be so frustrating. I always prefer pants over skirts, but I have noticed my pant fit changes as my body ages, and even the ones in my size can suddenly have whiskering or comfort issues. </p> <p>Rachel, I totally identify with your statement in buying &amp; wearing things that aren't our 'style'--boy do I ever do that! </p> <p>Goldenpig, I hear everything you say--we are in the same boat, including our style tendencies for outfits over mix and match neutrals. Thanks for helping me relax on this. As you and Rachy say, I may just be a large wardrobe person, at least until my items age out or become too worn or uncomfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1544314 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 21:57:02 +0000 shoppingisfun 1544314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ugh I am doing a closet purge today. It is depressing to try things on because I am too fat for half my wardrobe. A couple of items were accidentally run through the dryer and are too small, but most of them are just small because In have gained weight. </p> <p>Also, I am coming to the realization that I hate all my dress pants; even the ones that aren't too small seem to have "fit issues" (whiskering across the hips, too short to wear with my heels, etc). Maybe I should switch to skirts. I rarely have a need to wear dress pants, but still.</p> <p>My purge equation: 1. Is it current? 2. Would I ever wear it out of the house? 3. Does it fit? 4. Do I ever actually wear it (rather than just thinking about wearing it)? 5. Is it reasonably wearable/comfortable? If the answer to any of those questions is "no"....I purge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1544235 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 18:28:50 +0000 rachylou 1544235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I really REALLY suck at purging. I have a 5-year + purge project that is still ongoing. I have, though, managed to clear out half the boxes in my mother's basement (yes, that bad!). Two things come to mind that helped with that, which come from YLF: <ol> <li>Setting one's style parameters - and sticking to them. My problem is, I'll buy <i>and </i>wear things that aren't *my style* just for fun. But this is unhelpful in so many ways. So I've been cutting things that are just too far afield.</li> <li>PPP. My problem here is if things are a little off, I'll say <i>So What?</i> Well that's all fine and dandy, because it's not the biggest problem with my RATE punkette hipstery style, but leads to an enormous amount of *filler* in the ol' closet. So I've been working on being pickier and more of a perfectionist, so long as it doesn't leave me looking too sharp... which is something I avoid unbelievably!</li> </ol> <br />Also, every time I wear something, I evaluate it. I just chucked a shirt I really like because it's ever so slightly squeezy on the arms. Hard to let go, I love the material, but PPP!!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1544195 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 16:33:59 +0000 goldenpig 1544195@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm totally in the same boat Aliona! I have a large wardrobe and love everything in it, though it makes it hard to get dressed in the morning because I'm overwhelmed with so many choices. I don't wear a single item that often, so they don't get worn out. If I purge something it's usually because it annoys me while I wear it or no longer fits. I'm not always a good judge of when something is outdated so I tend to hang on to things too long. I usually pass on my purged items to my sister and she picks what she wants (mostly everything!). The few items I regretted were usually something that got featured in one of Angie's outfits or ensembles (lace bomber jacket anyone?) or that I purged because they were too baggy, but now that I've gained some weight I am wishing I had back. I think I need to be more ruthless about purging. However, I think I need to face that I'm never going to attain one of those minimalist closets. It just doesn't work with my matchy-matchy and print-heavy style, because I tend to dress in outfits with just the right bag and accessories, rather than having a mix-and-match neutrals-only wardrobe. I think I just need to get better about planning my outfits the night before so I'm not rushing around in the morning. Good luck with the purging and just remember there's nothing wrong with having a lot of clothes that you love! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1544130 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 14:28:22 +0000 Anonymous 1544130@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chadya, Karie and Janet, I appreciate hearing your edit tips. Janet, you share some real wisdom, and I very much relate to your comments on the marble skirt and purging larger size items. I have been in the exact same situation in both cases. I'll be honoring and wishing a fond goodbye to my go-to wrap skirt of the past four years, which has been hanging unworn in my laundry area all summer. </p> <p>In addition to the overwhelmed by choice issue, another realisation about my wardrobe dawned on me as I begin going through my summer items: I'm starting to resent the amount of time I spend curating a large wardrobe--planning, cleaning, maintaining, etc. I'm very much hoping Suz and Joy's tip on smaller capsules helps with this. </p> <p>Roxanna, CocoC and BethT, I'm glad to hear this post helped others--and knowing others are in the same boat is good group therapy for me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1544098 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 13:53:55 +0000 Janet 1544098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like chadya's list very much -- I'm going to save it for future use, myself. </p> <p>I'm feeling a bit like a forum outlier these days. I'm not very purge-happy at the moment. Yeah, I could stand to pull out some things I have not worn in ages, and to review my holding zone, but all in all, my approach to closet editing has gotten less frenzied. Some of this may be simply because I have been traveling for much of the summer, and I know my unworn things are unworn mainly due to lack of opportunity to wear them in this particular season. </p> <p>For instance, I've barely worn my Vince jumpsuit from last year this summer, but there is no way I'm getting rid of it -- even if I only wear it rarely, I enjoy it when I do. However, there is an old marble-print skirt in my closet that I've resisted donating because I love the print and enjoyed wearing it five or so years ago -- the kicker is that every time I've started to put it on in the last two years, I take it off in favor of something I like better. Oh, and one time I took a photo of an outfit with that skirt and felt like it made me look even wider than I am. That's a sign that this particular skirt needs to go. </p> <p>I'm not trying to attain some magical number in my closet, and I know I have a wardrobe that many people would consider "large" because of that. I went through a couple of years of buying a lot after I discovered YLF, and that is now calming down. I feel like I've come a long way in figuring out my style, so I'm making fewer purchasing mistakes and taking longer to tire of items in my closet. </p> <p>I have some pieces that are difficult to style, and they'll never be workhorses, but I don't want to let them go for various reasons. I don't subscribe to the idea that everything in my closet needs to be a workhorse, or completely versatile, or practical (Angie's recent post on that topic hit home for me). </p> <p>I've also had a couple of purging regrets in recent years that have led me to consider more carefully why I want to let something go. I purged some tops after losing weight that I now wish I still had because fits got looser, and what once looked "big" on me would now look easy and current. Oh well, we can't always predict what we have in our wardrobes that will come back around! </p> <p>This is probably sounding like I'm anti-purge, which I definitely am not, but lately there has been so much celebrating throwing out all the "stuff" in our lives (I'm not talking about just on YLF, but on Facebook and many other places, and yes, kondoing has become a verb!), that I have an instinctive reaction to defend the practice of a gentler, more careful form of editing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1544038 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 11:59:02 +0000 Karie 1544038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't read all the responses yet, but I will (that's for my second cup of coffee). I go by the 3 F's and an S - <b>f</b>it, <b>f</b>eel good, <b>f</b>latter, and no <b>s</b>tains. If a wardrobe item doesn't meet those, out it goes. And I don't care how old anything is. Yesterday I wore my all time favorite pair of summer pants that are about 7 years old (in pristine condition) and got many compliments on my outfit.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have a small closet and had a large wardrobe, but this summer I purged about half of it by applying the 3F/S rule. Also, every weekend I decide what outfits I'm going to wear for the week ahead (one outfit for each workday plus a spare, and any outfits for going out after work) try them on if I'm not sure of the combinations, iron them, and hang them on a rack in my spare room. It makes getting dressed and out the door each morning a snap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1543916 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 02:38:21 +0000 Cococat 1543916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a fabulous thread! I must come back to read when I have more time. I'm in a similar boat, loving almost everything in my wardrobe, but not knowing how to organise and purge. </p> <p>My things have exploded out into the spare room and it's getting so out of control. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1543908 Sun, 23 Aug 2015 02:05:40 +0000 Roxanna 1543908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know, Aliona, I've been pondering this exact same question and was going to post it the same day you did! I have a large wardrobe, tend to impulse buy, and like to 'reinvent' myself frequently...this thread has been so valuable.

For example, I just don't often wear sleeveless tops. Although I think I'll wear them under jackets or sweaters, I only wear jackets or sweaters when it's cooler and I'll usually choose something warmer under them. Condition, comfort and fit are essential considerations. And unless it's a dress, if it's difficult to make outfits with a specific garment, that's also something I consider. I'm in a different place from you in that I have been building a wardrobe and am now reaching the point of deciding how large a wardrobe I want. Some of what I don't want to keep and decisions in terms of future purchasing choices is whether they are "similar items". Not necessarily exact duplicates, but close and how many I want or feel comfortable with of similar types of items, styles and colors. How many black blouses do I want or need and what even differentiates them?&nbsp;<br />In terms of purging like items, although they are all fine, for me some decision relates to a ranking where if I had to choose, and for a variety of reasons such as style, comfort, ease with mixing with other items, age of garment, which would I prefer to keep and which would I want to let go.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1542277 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 18:25:08 +0000 Thistle 1542277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How I purge:</p> <p>1. Does it fit? - Nope? Either moved downstairs or gone, depending on why (maternity clothes are all donated, and a lot of pre-maternity has been donated, too).</p> <p>2. What condition is it in and how much effort to make it look&nbsp;very nice again? Will I go through the effort?</p> <p>3. Do I actually like it?</p> <p>4. Is it dated? This is trickier, but you know, that slate grey midi skirt suit from the late 90s was most assuredly dated.</p> <p>5.&nbsp;Is it comfortable? If it's fussy, I am learning I won't wear it. Ever.</p> <p>After that, comes the hard bit. Making outfits and the like. I will leave that to other fabbers who are waaaay better at that than I am.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1542270 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 18:15:33 +0000 BethT 1542270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've really enjoyed reading through this thread. &nbsp;Thanks much to all who are sharing their wisdom! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1542225 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 15:09:59 +0000 Suz 1542225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The forum member who used the "boutique" was Lisa. It helped to cure her from overbuying. And made decisions easier. I am on my phone now and can't link to her profile but she also wrote a blog about this. </p> <p>I laughed at myself for forgetting my own advice to Joy!! I think I forgot it because it didn't work as easily for me last year due to unstable weather conditions. But I still did something rather similar, reserving certain items for warm autumn and some for cool spring. And this does ensure that I give loved items their time in the sun, so to speak, and don't neglect them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1542071 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 07:21:28 +0000 Caro in Oz 1542071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aliona, not much time to respond sorry. But yes my style descriptors have shifted a little but I try not to stray too far because when I do I don't like how I feel. For example, I'm less interested in the extremes of volume &amp; structure now &amp; have all but eliminated black but I've found other ways to give me the looks I want.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1542029 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 02:37:26 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1542029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like making outfits ahead of time, when I'm not in a hurry. Quite often on the weekends I'll put up the clean laundry and then spend some time pulling outfits together from things I haven't worn in a while. I'll hang them together in one area of the closet, and then I can just grab if I want. I'm not militant about it, I sometimes pick something else, but they're there if I want them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation/page/2#post-1542025 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 02:33:03 +0000 Banoffi 1542025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aliona - I very much relate to your dilemma. &nbsp;I have a fairly large closet and, while it's very organized and everything in it fits me, it's quite full and I am overwhelmed in the morning. &nbsp;Susie's comment sums up many of my workday mornings: "I used to flit from one idea to another, wasting time until I finally just put on some clothes to get out the door!"</p> <p>I am taking in everyone's comments and learning a lot. &nbsp;Thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1542001 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 01:17:53 +0000 Jaime 1542001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am going to read this carefully later to benefit from the collective wisdom, but I think the main thing is to accept your wardrobe - once everything sparks joy, fits comfortably and you aren't keeping second rate items that you favor for the ones you really love (ie split wears issue), maybe it is ok to just let your wardrobe be as long as it sits comfortably in your closet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541963 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 00:33:01 +0000 retailgirl 1541963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aliona, you say that to maxx and Macy's overwhelm you. But actually they are organized very differently. TJ maxx is arranged by clothing type and then by size, except for some new items that make a cohesive "statement" and will be highlighted in front of the department. Macy's is pretty much arranged by brand, many of which are Macy's own, such as Karen Scott, INC, Alfani, Style and Co., ideology, American Rag, I think I got them all! Then there is a Lauren shop, a north face shop, etc., and there are separate areas for petite and regular. So find which line works for you and you're halfway there! But don't expect any help at either store. Nordstrom is a good place to shop, but the selection in the individual stores is not usually that great. That's why the sales associates are great because they know all the stock. Finding what works for you is hard, but hang in ther. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541955 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 00:24:50 +0000 Anonymous 1541955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura, I like the 'boutique' idea! And good point about doing a separate cull. It makes sense not to overload the brain with too many decisions (especially mine!). </p> <p>Again, I'm so grateful for everyone's help and wisdom today. Thank you all so much! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541950 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 00:16:00 +0000 Anonymous 1541950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kiwigal, your capsule challenges are great wardrobe lessons. I'm really starting to see the value in this and tracking. How did it felt to do the 30 items in April. Did you feel constrained? </p> <p>Staysfit, as always you nail it with your wisdom. Your top-as-part-of-an-outfit example is a great one. I'll have to consider that possibility as I continue the try on. And you're right about dry cleaning: Some things, like lined coats and jackets, I understand. But I do get resentful at items that are dry clean only just because the manufacturer used poor quality materials. </p> <p>Caro, I enjoyed reading your musings. I struggle with coming up with style goals, but maybe if I try logging wears and capsules, these will become more apparent. What struck me about the pictures you posted is the lines, drape and flow of the clothing. Definitely fits with the arty aspect to your style that you describe. Do you feel that the style definitions you developed then still hold true today? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541947 Wed, 19 Aug 2015 00:11:25 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1541947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You could also just pull out things and put them in a holding zone if the issue is feeling overwhelmed with too much stuff. Put them away somewhere and then switch them out occasionally, or see if you miss them.</p> <p>Which YLF member was it that did the whole capsule wardrobe plus "boutique" thing? The boutique was items that she already owned, but put in a different closet and she could only pull from it occasionally. It seemed to help her make decisions and feel less overwhelmed. Her threads might be useful to you if I could remember her darn name. :)</p> <p>To circle back to your original question, which I didn't actually answer before: when I'm culling I don't have a set number of things I'm aiming to get rid of. I have two limiters on my wardrobe: the size of my closet, the number of hangers I have, and the space I have in my drawers; and, the budget I set for my clothing each season. If I buy something new and I am out of space to put it somewhere, I know I need to get rid of something. But usually I cull separately, doing a closet edit and checking all the things that Angie says to check - is it too worn, do I still wear it, do I still like it, do I have things to wear it with, is it too dated, does it need alterations, does it still fit... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541922 Tue, 18 Aug 2015 23:43:16 +0000 Caro in Oz 1541922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IMO some of us are overwhelmed by too much stuff - I know I am. It's not that I ever had a huge wardrobe it was just too huge for me. When&nbsp;I first came to YLF I had lots of clothes I loved but still found myself feeling unhappy with my wardrobe. It never felt like I had a grip on things :)</p> <p>I agree 100% with Susie about tracking wears - it was a real game changer for me too. I do think there is a step before tracking though - it's working out HOW you want to look. Until I had clarified that aspect of my style I was all over the place - which makes sense given I do have a large eclectic element to my personality.&nbsp;</p> <p>Not sure if any of this is helpful &nbsp;- it is a (sometimes long) process &amp; remember Angie's rule - don't forget to have fun.</p> <p>No obligation to read but here are some of my musings:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-style-goals-winter-2013">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....inter-2013</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541901 Tue, 18 Aug 2015 23:12:57 +0000 Staysfit 1541901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aliona, all the above are wonderful ideas. I am left wondering about your original Kon Mari process. Perhaps sparking joy is not a powerful enough tool for you. As my wardrobe became smaller it became easier to spot outlier's, however sometimes my mind gets cluttered with too many ideas and it is hard for me to recognize my strongest feelings. For example, I might like a top and think it sparks joy and want to keep it with the thought that it looks good in an outfit I can create with a specific skirt, etc. However, I may not actually love that top. I added an additional question to the "sparks joy" element to help me assess if my feelings are positive enough for a given item. " Would I want to repurchase it if I lost it somehow? " Those are the items I keep.</p> <p>It sounds like you wouldn't re-purchase items that require dry cleaning and that type of upkeep is tedious for you. That does not sound like joy. Those items should be purged. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541897 Tue, 18 Aug 2015 23:08:43 +0000 Sal 1541897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You always look great Aliona so I don't think you need to worry about looking dated. &nbsp;And it is wonderful you have so many pieces that you love!</p> <p>I agree with lots of what has been said.</p> <p>Perhaps not letting anything new in until you have a piece or two you wish to exit, and having fun with what you own.</p> <p>In April I tried to wear only 30 pieces in 30 days (achieved this), in June I chose a couple of pieces and tried to remix them in different ways (partially achieved this) and I am now trying to wear any orphans and update my dresses which are getting a little tired. &nbsp;It has become apparent a couple of things that now need to exit, mostly because of fit and quality issues. &nbsp;These little challenges were fun, and I did try a couple of new combinations. &nbsp;</p> <p>I tracked wears for one month, and it was enlightening how hard some of my pieces work! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541884 Tue, 18 Aug 2015 22:39:54 +0000 Anonymous 1541884@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great tips on capsules, Elly! Thank you! I am a bit of an outfit person but would prefer not to be, and capsules sound like the perfect way for me to break out. Your insight has been so helpful, everyone. I really appreciate it. I feel a lot less stressed about the process. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541796 Tue, 18 Aug 2015 20:12:29 +0000 Elly 1541796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely-- unless you are an exclusive "outfit" person (wear the same garments together when they are worn, period) capsules can be a valuable exercise on using your clothes. You can build around specific items, by silhouette, season, color-- many possibilities. Sometimes holes and duplicates don't become apparent until you think about how you wear things in conjunction with other items and realize that you have 15 versions of cropped over slim-- but mostly wear button downs with bootcuts.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541774 Tue, 18 Aug 2015 19:46:38 +0000 Anonymous 1541774@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've inspired me for tracking, Susie. I like your Evernote/Spreadsheet approach. </p> <p>Elly, likewise on the capsule idea. I held off on capsules because I didn't fully understand them: They seemed more like a playful, fun exercise than a practical one. Joy's seasonal approach has given me an appreciation for their practical side and I now see how relevant they are to my situation. </p> <p>Mamsellemiele, my wardrobe has definitely expanded to fill the size available. I now realise that's not a good thing for me. My home is far from large by U.S. standards, but I miss the freedom of our former tiny home/tiny closet. Less cleaning, less upkeep, more time for fun. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541765 Tue, 18 Aug 2015 19:23:07 +0000 Elly 1541765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aliona-- why don't you do some capsule play?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/whats-your-purge-equation#post-1541762 Tue, 18 Aug 2015 19:17:43 +0000 Susie 1541762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aliona, I use a spreadsheet for tracking. I like the spreadsheet because I can put in formulas for adding, counting, % etc. I guess I am kind of nerdy that way :)</p> <p>I also keep notes in Evernote- one note for each week where I list WIW each day. It only takes a minute or two each day and then I add&nbsp;that to my spreadsheet weekly. (I also keep a separate note for what I wear on the weekends). &nbsp;It's interesting to see how many pieces I use in a month or three months, for instance. It's also easy to see what isn't getting worn!</p>
