Outstanding edit (so brave!) Do you have anything you are planning to add right away? I would love to hear more about your thought process of exiting more than half of your collection.
I do have a BV bag and an H scarf headed my way! LOL
As darling as Marie Kondo is, my edit process was a bit different. I do a big clearing out of stuff about every 3-5 years. This challenge and the fact my DH was out of town made the process pretty easy. I spread all my bags out on a long counter and stared at them for a few days, then I started the rehoming with 5 older Valentino’s, still beautiful and in great condition but not really my taste anymore, then I set aside the bags I was definitely keeping and started wearing them in this challenge. After that any bag that was a bit too stiff, too corporate, an odd size, or the strap was never comfortable got rehomed with the Val’s. I was able to easily let go of another 5 bags, I also edited my scarfs too, just one maxi Twilly that I had to force myself to wear. Of course anything I am sentimental about or emotionally attached to got spared, I also have a few noname bags that I kept.
My DH and I live in a small house that we love, we have enough room but not much extra room. Most of my wardrobe is a capsule as are my jewelry, scarves, bags, and shoes. I am looking forward to adding another three bags to the family in the near future, the fun will be deciding what bags to add to the collection.
I was really tired of all my clothes being big and baggy on me, so I did a ruthless closet purge and then went out and bought some smaller jeans & pants, a sweater, a few tees, and a couple of nice tops.
a very beautiful and cute leather pouch, all the way from New Zealand!!
