Thanks Suntiger for the impetus. I still have more to do, but this is a good start. It is 10 items of which 2 were holding zone sentimental items, so 8 from current wardrobe. I’ve bought 7 new things in 2019 so far, so current wardrobe only down by one. Better than up I suppose for a fairly large wardrobe of between 170-180 clothes/shoes?
The oldest were 1997/8, a poinsettia blouse and skirt suit I just loved but not worn quite a few years. Was in holding zone. Gritted my teeth, goodbye. Didn’t fit any more. Used to wear it on Christmas Day several years. Gone to hospice shop.
Short black and white floral shorts from 2015 are too short on me and not flattering on my legs. 36 wears. Gone to DD2.
Fun 2010 black/bright colours jacket ( pics 6-9) has gone to same DD who has borrowed it before. I only wore maybe 19 times, fun but maybe too casual for me and didn’t do up.
Fiji blue/pink floral tunic 2013 30 wears had cost $30( pic 1). Going off tunics, maybe too little girly for me?
Pink roses pencil skirt 2010 pic 2. Pic 2 was the last try. This was my 50th birthday skirt but I’m 58 now. Find it a bit short now? Not me any more.
Puffed sleeve white top pic 3 2009. Too tight and tummy sticks out. That was worn for my 50th too with the pink roses pencil skirt. 50 seems young now
The last 3 were wearing out.
Scope bright jacket 2016 pic 4 38 wears was pilling.
Scope black jacket 2016 pic 5 near 150 wears was pilling. I duplicated it last year and the new one has had 41 wears already!
Black Max leatherette ponte pants 2014 had cost $79, had 92 wears. I got them out for their first wear this autumn and the leatherette has sort of shredded itself over the summer? I have 3 other pairs black pants I will try to wear instead but those were my faves
Thanks for reading.
