Susie, I count workday and weekends all together. So that would bring you closer to 60. Which is still moderate by many people's standards. And huge by other people's standards!

I think so much depends on lifestyle and climate. Thinking about Mo, for example, and how many changes of clothes she might require in the Florida heat each day. What works for one will not work for another!

This was a great topic to bring up. I am in a constant state of purging my closet. The last few years it has gotten way out of hand. I feel overwhelmed.It expanded from a room to 4 other closets. I got rid of 126 items in August. I group I don't know items together and try to work with them. Sometimes with success and sometimes not. The bad thing about this is that I am wearing items I am unsure about instead of using those I really love. I am always open for tips and suggestions in this area. I read all of yours.
One question I ask myself when deciding to keep an item is: If you did not have this item would you repurchase it new? If the answer is no then it needs to go.

Love the by the numbers Suz! I had gotten very down on myself for feeling like i had "too much" ... but this post help me to realize I really am in the middle of the road as it were (at least by YLF standards!) I have just started a spreadsheet so I really can say how much wear things are getting over a 3 or 6 month period. I look forward to adding my tally's to the next post like this!

Vickie, I think that's a great question to ask when purging. And Sarah, I'm so spreadsheet averse, yet I am actually considering making one and tracking -- not to much for CPW but to see what I actually have for colours/ neutrals/ patterns, etc.

I am amazed you can do your numbers without a spreadsheet! ... I cant remember with I wore last week ... LOL
