Last week I did a wardrobe edit for a very good friend of mine. Let's refer to her as The Puffin.
You see The Puffin has her own dressing room - jealous? Yes me too. And it's a beautiful room, off a very beautiful bedroom but thing thing is, she had about 30% more items of clothing in that room than she needed. So we took to it with a zero tolerance policy for anything that hadn't been worn in 12 months or anything that had had it's day.
I learnt several things that day about my friend The Puffin:
1. The Puffin has lots of singlets, t-shirts and cashmere jumpers
2. The Puffin has a second-to-none casual wardrobe full of quirky fun colours
3. The Puffin loves soft fabrics
4. The Puffin needs to buy some shoes
5. The Puffin loves Raggedy Ann v neck, long flared or frill layered cotton dresses with patterns
6. The Puffin will not throw out her turquoise cotton skirt
And this is what we managed to take out of the wardrobe:
 |
| Assorted ousted garments strewn on the bed. |
 |
| and on the floor... |
 |
| Tidy hanging space. Tidier makes it easier to choose clothing. |
It was quite the successful mission I have to say with a few garbage bags full going to Vinnies, about 5 items to be altered for increased wearability and everything in better order.
 |
| Belts in a shoe box lid. Great for the spatially challenged. |
 |
| Folded cashmere. |
 |
| The Puffin's Scholl denim wedges. They were something else... |
And check out these little gems which were unearthed... No, they didn't stay ... ;)
