The Week of the Purge: Your Closet

If you are one of those folks who walks into the closet each morning and thinks, "There is nothing to wear!" then this challenge is for you. It's time to clean the closet. Didn't wear it over the summer?  It goes in the bag marked SUMMER. Recognize winter clothes you know you didn't wear last season, those go in the bag marked WINTER. Same goes for shoes and accessories. Then give them away or find a local consignment store that will pay you for them. Often working with less can ease anxiety and stress.    Less choices, less things to worry about, less clutter. So go make that happen.  If you are short on time you might want to just set up an empty shopping bag for the week.  Challenge yourself to try on things each day that you haven't worn in awhile.  If you decide it's not right for you anymore, stick  it in the bag.  Do this every day this week and by the end of the week you should have quite a few things you are willing to part with. Purge your closet and free up some head space.
