I spoke before I counted my own pieces...
I've got exactly 40 pieces.....wardrobe looks great - like a shop rail - but having that few pieces does mean they'll wear out more quickly...all the reason to go shopping again!
How many pieces of clothing in your wardrobe?

I think you might find that being so minimalist means your clothes wear out quicker and need replacing more often.
I don't have that much and I don't rotate very well either, so my clothes wear out...
You can carry minimalism a bit too far lol
I like having fewer clothes since everything I have in my closet is a favourite that I actually wear. Of those clothes about 1/2 are sweaters so they do get rotated, I only have 3 pairs of pants so those get kind of abused. I'd like to add a few more things but I'm waiting for the perfect pieces to come along.
Well, it cannot be that bad if you still have so many unworn pieces, some even with tags still on, in your wardrobe as you said in another thread.Haha

It's because I buy in multiples...so when one wears out I move onto the next...but it does mean I always look the same lol
I must buy some different clothes to vary my look which has become my uniform....you probably have more different outfits than me!!!:
I'm not much better myself- I only have 40 pieces, so I have the same problem
Update - one of my oldest shirts didn't survive the laundry - so 39.
I guess that means I need to pick one or two unworn shirts from my collection to replace it

The bad thing about buying up in multiples is that by the time you wear them they don't fit!!!
I am wearing a shirt today that I have 3 of, identical, and they're all too big, but bought ages ago so too late to take back.
I guess I'll wear them as layers underneath my jumpers through the winter but in the future I'll wear my clothes when I buy them...

Going shopping tomorrow assuming flu has calmed down - this time I'll only buy things I've tried on that fit!!!
Last year I had NO self control..
I spent a fortune online, most of it didn't fit..some I tried on (jeans) and returned for refunds or credits, some (the shirts) I didn't and now I'm stuck with a row of shirts that are too big!
So don't worry, you're not alone!!
Next year I'm only buying clothes that fit

Online shopping is treacherous!!!
I agree..
The worst thing is that all of the designer jeans came from the US and had to be returned fully insured and registered (and I had to pay customs duty on lots of them).
The time and money I wasted in the post office (ran into nearly £300 overall) could have bought me something nice in the UK...
Luckily this year my jeans all came from the UK...but I'm still living with a pile of online sale shirts that are too big which I didn't try on so I'm stuck with them...
Well I started to tally up my items and it will take some time. But based on what I've done so far I would estimate at 500 pieces. Coats/jackets alone are 60 total. X.x

At home I have a small closet maybe a little smaller than yours even! And only one rail. I have 2 dressers and frankly my room is a disaster area i have a good amount of stuff at my bf's place... So my closet isnt luxurious or anything! I do have stuff organized in the following manner: closet has dresses, shirts that need ironing, blazer, coats, some fancier skirts. All are organized by color and length. For tops I organized by sleeve length color and textile.
Drawers: tanks, ts, jeans, lounge wear, casual skirts, sweater. Try to organize by color but my drawers are packed! :/
However in the future I plan to have a closet space in a basement room at bf's.
