I decided to do a stocktake of my wardrobe yesterday. Don't ask me why. I was just curious to see how many items I had in there, what they were, and how many were hand made. Here's the results:
Skirts - 19 (I know - a ridiculous amount) (7 Hand made)
Skinny Jeans - 6 pairs
Jeans - 1 pair
Trousers - 10 pairs
Shorts - 5 pairs
Tops - 6
Blouses - 3
Dresses - 9
Jackets - 6 (1 Hand made)
Coats - 1
Scarves - 24 (10 Hand made) - Another ridiculous amount.
Shoes - 10 pairs
Sandals/flipflops - 8 pairs
Trainers/Pumps - 6 pairs
Handbags - 5 plus one in daily use.
Total Items - 120
This list doesn't include 3 drawers full of t-shirts, vests, gym gear, nightwear. Probably nearer 200 all told.
Items worn in last 6 months - 75% at a guess.
Quite a lot then. I don't think I need to buy anything new for a good while. Having said this, many of these items are pretty old, but I just can't bear to throw them out. At least I'm wearing most of them. Couldn't really call me a minimalist though. Not sure I'd ever be able to pare things back enough. I live in hope.
How many wardrobes? :)

Just the one. A little bit cramped I must admit.
Deleteinteresting exercise ... I should do this too x
ReplyDeleteIt's a bit scary actually. Maybe I should try to send more to the charity shop.
DeleteI've bought a lot of clothing over the past year, I should do a stocktake too.
ReplyDeleteMy problem is I buy new clothes, but never get rid of the old ones. I should keep a one in one out policy, but never do.
