I try to keep things simple in my closet, but sometimes I have unnatural attachments to inanimate objects. Shoes for example. I have some shoes I purchased years ago, have worn once, but don't have the heart to give away. Like these pink Anne Klein shoes I bought at least 5 years ago at Macy's, on sale for $25, that I dubbed "barbie shoes". They are hideous, I bought them mostly as a joke, wore them once, as a joke, and yet continue to hold onto them. Someone please explain this. Or these Miss Sixty boxing high tops? Seriously love them, worn them maybe 5 times, also owned at least 5 years.
I'm getting rid of the barbie shoes for sure, but as for the other half dozen shoes in my closet I love dearly but never wear, I'm giving myself a challenge:
If I do not wear them once by June, then off they go! Same goes for old purses, wallets that are falling apart, and t-shirts.
At a certain point, I just start to feel weighed down by THINGS. Not to mention, new Spring 2013 stock is almost ready and I have to make room in my closet for all of it!
Now to assemble a box of donations, someone else will surely love these barbie shoes.
