    This was so real and helpful. I'll be turning 50 this year and I've been eliminating a lot of younger clothing and synthetic fabrics like polyester (fleece) and acrylic sweaters. I have some shoulder issues and heat fluctuations with perimenopause, so I rarely wear sweaters because cardigans work so much better for me in this stage of life. I'm actually looking forward to my grandma era!

    Thank you for sharing! In case it hasn't been noted yet, Darn Tough socks have a lifetime guarantee. If the socks your father gave you eventually wear out, you can visit the company website and get a replacement pair. Thanks again for sharing this video!

    Good for you! You should go shopping and love all your clothes. I know it’s hard to find pants that fit good because you’re petite. I have the same problem because I’m so tall. I also don’t have many stores near me that carry nice clothes either. I’m glad I finally let go of a whole bunch of clothes that haven’t fit me for 5 years. It was hard, but I needed to do it.

    I totally understand how difficult it is to get rid of clothes that are part of your past self, but it is natural for your style to change over time. Embrace it and replace them with things you will really love yourself in now.

    I felt that "damnit!" I bought new jeans and I always wash them before wearing them. Well, the downside is that after wearing a full day, I realize they're too big! 🙃 They stretch throughout the day and aren't as snug as the beginning of the day.

    We just bought new nightstands. ❤ I have a 3 in 1 charger. Phone. Watch. Airpods. A doorbell ringer (so my elderly mother can easily ring for me in the night) Coaster with my water bottle on it. In the drawers and shelf I have a book, chapstick, nail file, glasses, catnip, cat treats, (for kittie’s nighttime routine 😆) eye mask, and a flash light. I think that’s everything. 🤔

    Thank you for interesting and positive videos. Binge watching it from time to time. My question is to keep and use or to throw away lotions and serums and creams I bought organic from Germany in 2020 when the "thing" started. They are all unopened, some are sealed some tubes not. Bought a lot to get a free delivery when spent over 200e. What a silly reason. Havent used a half of it yet. Now a dilemma to use or to toss??😂 Please advice.

    "Dress for the woman you are today" really resonated with me. I have been needing to go through my closet for AGES, but it's so overwhelming for me and I have THE GUILT. So many things I buy and don't wear, and I've had to force myself to change my style now that I'm in my mid 20s because I still tend to wear styles I did in my teens. I have a baby face too, so I still get mistaken as a teenager. You've inspired me to finally go for it and be bold!! Thanks girl ❤

    I literally am just finishing up. Got through the clothes I have stored away. Got rid of almost 3 13 gallon bags. This is my 4th declutter in the span of 7 years. I feel so happy. Going through whats inside my dresser and closet. I feel so accomplished. I am going to really go for a no buy clothes for the next year.

  • @TheOrganizedSoprano
    @TheOrganizedSoprano4 күн бұрын

    It depends on your height and whether or not you have a shelf underneath and need it to be functional. For short hanging, 36-40” for smaller adult clothes and 42”-46” for larger adults give or take a few inches if you are smaller or larger. I always advised people to measure the length of hanging clothes from the top of the hanger to the bottom of their garments. Long hang needs at least 60” in my opinion, more if you are taller.

    Thank you for this, and sharing your process :) I recently let go of a pair of shorts that were 30+ years old (not a typo)...LL Bean jeans that I cut off into shorts back when I was in college (and I'm 51 now). Loved them, they held up for that long-which isn't the case for new clothing, alas. But they had simply become uncomfy, too tight at the waist, so I had to acknowledge reality & give them away-but it was emotionally really difficult. Also let go of a bra whose band had gotten a bit too snug, bc each time I would put it on I would immediately take it back off bc of it being intolerably uncomfortable. It was in great condition, no ick-just too tight for my present body.

    We go through different seasons of our life and our tastes in clothes change. I consign anything that is in excellent condition, donated what is a bit older and throw away what is trashed. I shop second hand and buy new for things I need in sizes that fit me know.
