Default Re: Decluttering Question- closet full of clothes and nothing to wear!!!

I have a lot of shelf space in my closet so I keep most sweaters, sweatshirts and a couple piles of out of season clothes there. Twice a year I switch out my wardrobes - from shorts to long sleeves.

I typically wear "business casual" (dockers and cotton shirts) to teach lessons and to church, so I have 4-5 outfits like that. I also have four pair of jeans (two blues, one brown and one black - the colors can be slightly dressed up for get-togethers, etc). I have A LOT of shirts that can be worn with jeans for everyday or with dress pants for church/parties. I decided one day that though I was home every day, I could dress more nicely without dressing in expensive clothes. KOHLS is especially good for blousy-type shirts for everyday wear. I don't wear run-down tshirts anymore.

Every time I switch out my wardrobe, I first go to what is hanging and purposely pick out one garbage bag (for donation) of stuff I wore very little or didn't fit well. If it didn't fit well, I'll be less inclined to wear it again next year.

I'm pretty generous with what I toss - and when I find a shirt I like a lot, I tend to buy 2-3 in different colors.

Lastly, I have 2-3 basic black dress pants with 2-3 basic dress jackets (in colors to go with patterned shirts) for real dress up days. I play in an orchestra so the black dress pants are mandatory (as well as a dozen or more dress tops in various warmths and layers LOL).
