Love the colour palette too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028876 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 00:42:43 +0000 shedev 1028876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have 4 seasons too. It's definitely a challenge for the small wardrobe. I think&nbsp; it's important not to get caught up in the numbers. We all have different needs. All the discussions did make me realize that my wardrobe was way beyond big. This wouldn't be bad except that I was really just holding on to the past. It was just time to let it go.<br />JulieJohn, you made my day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028855 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 00:13:08 +0000 JulieJohn 1028855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job, you are amazing! You look great today. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028850 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 00:09:01 +0000 Isabel 1028850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW. What discipline. Two out...all the ladies are inspiring me.</p> <p>I think that living in 4 very distinct climates and jobs can make it difficult to have a "smallish" wardrobe.&nbsp;</p> <p>I like your outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028828 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 23:50:43 +0000 Suz 1028828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah...that one is a great question. Really looking forward to your thoughts and discoveries.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028696 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 19:28:06 +0000 shedev 1028696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Would&nbsp;I buy it now? really resonated with me. I've been slowly downsizing my wardrobe over the last year by seasonal purges and 2 out&nbsp;for 1 in. This time&nbsp;&nbsp;I&nbsp;jumped into the purge with both feet and I'm glad I did. I'm not completely done so I'll post my thoughts after the whole process is finished. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028546 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 16:36:57 +0000 Lisa 1028546@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great job!&nbsp; It took me almost 3 years to purge my wardrobe from over 300 items to around 150 now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028470 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 15:11:47 +0000 cheryl 1028470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love that outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028367 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 12:57:12 +0000 Suz 1028367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you have done well already, Shedev. I'm really curious about what the process will reveal for you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028222 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 07:38:51 +0000 Deborah 1028222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent job. How are you feeing about reducing your wardrobe. I have found it quite liberating. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1028221 Fri, 13 Sep 2013 07:31:11 +0000 Alexandra 1028221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Congratulations! That was fast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-thoughts-on-the-big-purge#post-1027917 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 21:30:36 +0000 shedev 1027917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm officially at 300 pieces, not counting shoes and outerware. My first thought is that I could go lower, but 250 may be too low. I'm going to think it over till next week. I may adjust to factor in coats but keep the count the same.<br />My basic pallet is jewel tones and blues with neutrals of black, grey, white and a couple neutral shades of brown in foot and outerwear.<br />We finally caught a break in temps. Starting tomorrow, I may get to wear some of what I bought for fall as we'll be having some real fall weather.<br />WIW<br />top- Vera Wang (a piece of my small wardrobe got a hole, so I shopped my closet and added this)<br />jeans- A brand<br />boots- Steve Madden </p>
