Dropped off maybe 40-50 pounds of clothes at Goodwill today. Part of the acceptance process that the 90s will not be coming back (my closet and personal history: “thank gawwwd!”).
1.) Several shirts I held onto for years because they were expensive and I liked the colors. There’s a difference between admiring colors from a distance and wearing something that makes you look like a pack of Fruit Stripe gum.
2.) My t-shirts breed like Tribbles. I’ve tagged the remaining t-shirts to track their movements and figure out what the heck they’re doing.

i can relate to your desire to distinguish between admiring something "from a distance" versus wearing it.
as far as clothing goes, i think it's good to edit one's collection regularly. you are able to identify what you are actually using and what items might be of more use to someone else through donation…
I remember and like those striped shirts, but understand the need to clean out. It's hard to do, but so refreshing in every way. The checklist for females is: Does it fit? Does it flatter? Will I ever wear it again? Really?
