unedited for 100 days. Day 26

I feel the urge coming. It happens about three times a year, and is honestly one of my favorite feelings. The closet purge! I'm not a big shopper actually and it always surprises me how I can find things to get rid of every 4 months. It also humors me that the same pieces of questionable clothing can survive two to three purges in a row. But by the third purge, all it takes is that one moment of truth and that thing is history. Goodbye pilly sweater! As much as I am fond of your cozy oversized turtle neck, I find myself wanting to wear my other sweater that doesn't look like it barely survived a cat fight. And goodbye print wrap dress. As much as I tried, I just am not a print gal. I like solids and I'm sticking to it! It's taken years on years, but I think I have finally figured out my style. Anything black. Some neutrals. Classic sweaters and jackets. An occasional body suit. And a reliable set of shoes that don't hurt my feet. They say that if you can have some what of a 'uniform' you can save a lot of time and energy by not taking 20 minutes to get dressed for the day. I like to keep my closet stocked of clothes that I feel good and happy in. Tomorrow, I'm going to have an extra cup of coffee and say goodbye to anything that falls outside of those parameters. I especially need to get after my yoga pants drawer- if they ain't cute no more, they out!
