Last fall I completely organized my closet and went through my clothes. I had 4 piles: "Now" "Sooner" "Later" and "Never Again". The "Never Again" were the things I donated because they were too big or I knew I would never wear again because the style no longer fit my taste. The "Sooner and "Later" (those things I expected to wear sooner or later) got boxed up:

This morning I went through the boxes and found a number of things I can wear now including 3 pairs of denim capri's (white, blue, and khaki) that will take me through the spring until it becomes shorts weather. Yay! More clothes to wear without having to spend money. I also found my Wisconsin Badgers polo shirt that is a tiny bit snug, but I can definitely wear it as long as they are in the NCAA tournament.

I am now down to 3 boxes of too small clothes instead of 4! I also have a bunch more too big things to donate. I take them to a charity that provides clothing to the women at the women's shelter as well as run a "career closet" for anyone who can't afford decent clothes for job interviews.

    That's a really good system! I like it :smile: I've been keeping my smaller clothes at my mum's house (mostly because I was living there on weekends whilst working away from home when I was lighter), and it's basically a whole other wardrobe. Even my smaller underwear are still there. Every few months I pop over there and pick up another couple of things as I begin to fit into them again. How great is it shopping in your own closet!
