My first job out of college was as a personal shopper, so I like to think of myself as a professional when it comes to shopping. The last few years I have to say I've kind of been a master bargain shopper. I might have been a bit too masterful.
I decided it was time for a clean sweep and emptied my closets last week. I've been sorting through things and have decided I absolutely, positively do not need a single piece of clothing. So, I made the decision: no shopping until June 20, 2012. Not even second-hand stores. Nothing.
Okay, fine, here are the exceptions:
1. Socks
2. Running shoes
3. Winter boots
4. Black boots
5. Winter coat
6. Winter hat/gloves
Otherwise, if you see me in anything between now and June 20, 2012 that you've never seen before then let's all hope it's only because I forgot I had it and it's been hiding in the back of my closet for the last four years (entirely possible).
Here's a picture of just my shirts (pants, dresses, jackets not included in this photo) waiting to be sorted. Awful! Too many!
