Clearing Clutter

Filed in: Fashion

Yesterday I cleaned out the storage room that belongs to the apartment. Even though I did this half a year ago and thought I had done a pretty decent job, I ended up keeping just one third of what was in there. A lot of this was clothes.

Today I thought I’d clean out my closet. A while back I did the same thing so I didn’t think I would find much get rid of, but I ended up getting rid of several bags of clothes. Even my boyfriend, who hates that I have so much stuff, looked at the pile and went “Are you really sure about this?”

I go by the rule that I keep what I love and use, the rest goes. A new philosophy has made it’s way to me. I believe that to make place for new things in my life I have to get rid of something old. It’s like to get a chance at your dream job you will have to give up your current job. So I’m clearing all my clutter. In addition I believe that you have a responsibility for everything you own and if there’s too much and it’s too messy it will affect the rest of your life. Like everything I kept because I spent too money on it. I never wore it, but since it was so expensive it was hard to get rid of. Every time I looked at those things it made me feel bad. I understood that to lose the bad feeling I had to get rid of all the crap.

Afterwards I felt so great. I thought that getting rid of this much would be scary, but it isn’t. I don’t think I’ll miss a single ting of what I threw out.

I’ve never worn this dress before, but I thought the light colors and innocent cut would go great with a the clean apartment. It has a floral pattern that can’t be seen in the photos.
