Not inherently "more virtuous" than those of you who keep your clothes longer and therefore have larger numbers. This question pops up time and time again on this forum. I am not really sure ,other than idle curiosity ,what purpose it serves to know. Unless one lives in the same climate with the same lifestyle and the same dressing requirements the answers are always going to vary.
Does this mean that I ve bought more than someone who regularly edits and refreshes their wardrobe? Possibly not and yet my figures may well look higher but over a lifetime I may have owned less.
Comparision with anyone else in life usually ends up with one person feeling bad in my experience ,so I tend to agree with Angie on this matter. The exception is: "I rarely get rid of stuff. I see that you are new here, rmcsc, and wish you welcome to the forum. I wonder who you are, where you live, and what kind of lifestyle you have.
Please consider to add some info in your profile. You may also find it interesting to read other members' profiles. By the way, why did you ask this question? Curious about the size of other members' wardrobes? If so, then you now know, from the comments above, that they are very different.
Or did you feel insecure regarding whether your own wardrobe size is normal? If so, I hope you got wiser by reading Angie's comment. Or perhaps you had other reasons? It could be interesting to hear them. Anyway, I only asked because I want to get rid of a few things. I think I have too many pants and jackets for example, but the city I live in is cold-ish for half the year, and I DO have a preference for dresses and skirts if I could choose what I wear based solely on how comfortable I feel, I mean , so I'm not sure how wise would it be to get rid of the pants and jackets lol.
Which is why I also asked my friends the same question. I found out one of them has no button ups, and I want to get rid of mine because I don't wear them at all. We also discussed how we tolerate skinny jeans less and less each year.
I'm not trying to compete with anyone, I'm just genuinely curious about how other people prioritize, because I suck at it, and my closet seems way too full. I don't feel bad because other people have more clothes at all. I actually wonder how they manage to wear them all because I don't have nearly as many as don't wear quite a few things. I own no button downs but three popover style shirts.
I own no white shirts or tees. Many people would see these as core classics. I actually do plan to get a black bag but not any of the others. But I own four patterned skirts I think working out what you own that you do love and wear is the first step. Try the pieces you are not sure about - edit some out, put some in a holding zone and wear others. See where your gaps are then.

I would not bother with pressed particle cheap quality. Look for solid wood that can be pained or sanded and stained, or that just looks expensive, with detailing. People literally throw away stuff because it is easier than moving it when they relocate. I have great patio furniture like this because I drove into the area with mansions and estates to sight see and bird watch, that just happened to have a cafe set and sun shade umbrellas.
Just check for bugs, like bed bugs or roaches. I also got an entire reclaimed wooden deck. Check for termites. Very much concerned about where the discarded clothes go — it seems like the minimalist purging approach just adds to the overall waste stream. Are there good ways to make sure that discards are actually used and not just put in the landfills? First, try to sell your discarded clothes before you donate. People myself included buy clothes at consignment stores.
If you donate to Goodwill, then not all of your donated clothes end up on clothing racks for resell. Some of them will be sold to recyclers or overseas, and some get thrown away. From an environmental standpoint, I feel like donating clothes to Goodwill should be the last option.
Second, the intention of minimalism is to own less. After purging your excess, you should not be replacing the purged items. Going forward, you will purchase fewer items, which is much better for the environment. Yeah, but if the profits go to feed exorbitant resale shop executive salaries who buy more crap than they need, what is the value…GW does not assist folks w no cost work clothing, look for more direct consumer use, not resale, look for Shelters, programs than really funnel resources directly to those in need without having to purchase goods.
There are also groups on facebook etc. I began my minimalist journey last year. I had clothing in my closet with tags still on them, and they had been there a long time.
I am getting ready to do yet another purge of my house; I am overdue for another sweep. Anything that is in good shape that someone else can use will go to Salvation Army. So helpful this article, just when I was not able to throw some pair of clothes clinging to their memory! This really helped, Thank you Joshua Becker. Since you already have a lot, you could ask if they could buy you sweaters, jeans, t-shirts or jackets next.
Then after those wear out, you can ask for new ones. Agreed, be honest and ask for fill in pieces you really need, start a list, whole you can also keep your favorite gifts and share your others with friends. Let the gift givers know that you are trying to actually build a wardrobe rather than just add duplicates. That way they will want to help you rather than spend on items your not ready to replace. No one wants to waste money on needless things on purpose.
Another idea…You could start up a clothing swap with a group of girlfriends where you trade pieces. This would give you the opportunity to try other styles without buying. Like one of the comments said, keep a list of things you would like to have. It not only helps me decided if I truly want the item, but also gives my parents an idea for gifts or things they might find on a clearance rack. Look up capsule wardrobes.
These are groupings of clothing that all mix and match so that you will need only key silhouettes to cover all bases. Picking a basic color story helps too.
These colors keep me In a mix match family that works easily. No brainier dressing! You can Google this all. Pay attention to your favorite go to pieces in the closet. Pull these out and start a new wardrobe with those pieces on a separate rack to see what mixes with those best.
And most importantly try on everything questionable to see if it make the grade with your favorite looks, if not remove those so that you can look and feel your best. Google capsule wardrobes and go to Images for lots of ideas on what may work for you and your family.
Also shoes and outerwear. That is my daily formula and I have several options of each clothing type to mix and match. Simple and fast! Use be Vivienne files…. I have a hard time parting from it.. I have it separated by colors. My closet is overwhelming.. I have found this lifestyle to be such a blessing in semi-retirement. While waiting for my husband to retire next year, I have been downsizing in major ways. My clothes are now pima cotton tees and denim on most days. Black jeans and a couple of dressy tops for special occasions and that about covers it.
I have found another simple but wonderful help both clothes minded and money saving. We incorporated a small 4 shelf plastic shelf with 4 cheap clothes baskets near our laundry in the basement.
Laundry is only once a week and our utilities have really dropped…. I can hardly wait to both be retired and have more time to enjoy our simple way of life!
Love your site! Good afternoon, I am starting this process slowly. Along with this I am also a consultant for my own company therefore need to keep things for that too so we do I draw the line. I have only black or gray pants and jackets, which means I only need black or gray shoes and socks. I bring color into the look in my shirts and scarves. I have 1 gray and 2 black purses of different sizes for different needs. I started doing this because I was traveling a lot and it made for easier and lighter packing.
However I found it made my home life easier and smaller too. I would add another rule that works well for me: Never buy clothes online unless you are buying an exact replacement for something you love. Keep what you love, love what you keep, use what you keep, and enjoy caretaking what you keep. That may mean 10 black dresses for some of us, or 4 complete seasonal changes for others. I appreciate thought process and the philosophy behind this but its hard to live an active or athletic lifestyle like this.
