Jenni -- I infer no judgment whatsoever, I was curious if this challenge resulted in any editing. From what I read, you were successful in that you wore all your Winter garments. YAY.
You assessed each garment and opted to keep them. The primary reasons you kept them is because you loved the quality and/or memories. Particularly the memories. You can easily keep your beloved items because you do not having limiting space issues.
The primary lesson learned for you is that buying new clothing items must be considered carefully in light of how much you may wear the garment going forward. [I think my primary lesson is different and I intend to explore that more thoroughly this coming week.]
Have I interpreted this correctly? I ask because I am feeling the urge to edit my tiny wardrobe. My primary criteria will be how something makes me feel when I wear it. I found there are garments in my wardrobe that are too utilitarian and do not meet my needs. They make me feel less than fabulous when I wear them. Could I just be tired of them because summer is lagging?
I'm trying to wrap my head around this. I do have the space to keep them all .... but I'm not sure it makes sense for me. I am not sentimental. Do you think that is the primary difference between us?
I'm going to think about this during the week.
I found this challenge incredibly enlightening. I hope you did as well. Best wishes.
