Lots of you seem to have lots of accessories - I just have 4 handbags to interchange and different shoes to suit the occasion!
I wear the same jewellery all of the time and just add gloves and scarf in the winter.

Even so, 50 pieces seems to be enough - and a nice round number!!

Every Jan 1st I clear out everything that's worn out or doesn't fit - then I make a list for the new year...I can already guess what's going at the end of this year so I've done next years shopping list already to fill the gaps!!!

I have easily more than 1000 pieces... At least... Not counting shoes which I have at least 100 of... Most of them are still new with tags or in their boxes! I have a major shopping problem and I've been meaning to eBay or give away all the stuff that I never wear... It's been more than 5 years since i've made that resolution lol.

eBay is too troublesome for me and though i've given away bags of clothes so far, it hasn't seemed to have made any dent in my overflowing closets! :shock:

:wtf: I'm wondering if you have all seasons clothing in your closet?

28 items doesn't seem very much - you must be washing all of the time!!

What do you do when something wears out???

Do you replace it or just minimalise even further.

Having said that, I buy in advance for coming seasons, so I don't always need to replace worn out things as the replacements are already there...but then I spot something else for my future wish lists!!!:smile1:

Yes - I'm sorry , I didn't notice this thread!!

It's absolutely amazing how many of us girls have over a thousand pieces.

Having said that, today I ordered 2 pairs of jeans and am going shopping in the West End with my mum on Saturday - when we split after lunch I'm sure she'll buy even more for her collection and hopefully I'll get my 4 winter shirts.

Life without clothes shopping wouldn't be worth living!!!

(I already have my list for next month and November as well!!!):smile1::smile1:

I did a little bit of a closet clean out as I switched my clothes from summer to fall. I didn't exactly count since I was scared of the number but it feels like a high amount. I own a lot of basic essentials in colors I like. My problem is I tend to buy a lot of the same types of clothing in various colors since I love colors. I'm trying to not buy so many of the trendy pieces since those are the ones I give away the most.

I have a closet clean out at the end of each calendar year, and a list of everything I'm going to need to replace it.

I'm so excited that I ordered my jeans for 2013 today, although I won't have them for ages.

I get to choose the buttons and rivets at the weekend but only paid a deposit so I've still got to pay for them next year!!!

Jumpers for next year are covered as I bought them last month on sale.

That means I can indulge my passion for handmade shirts now as I'm too small for most ladies shirts.

I probably have close to 250 pieces in my wardrobe. I'm going to say 80% of my wardrobe is dresses with skirts being close second followed by blouses, cardigans, fall and winter coats, then tops and jeans. I only own 2 pairs of jeans both are J brand black and dark blue....but with my new asos.com obsession my wardrobe is growing.... my wardrobe doesn't change much between seasons. just a few trend led patterns or colours!

I just cleaned out my closet and donated 8 GARBAGE BAGS OF CLOTHING :wtf: so I definitely had much more then 250 before lol

I am proud of those who subsist on less than 100 pieces!! I have around 150 pairs of shoes, 100 pairs of jeans, about 100 or so dresses... when you throw in jewelry... over 1000 pieces for sure. Adding Tshirts, bras, etc. then 2000. :shame:


I'm 22.

Yeah, I am a bit of a shopoholic,too. I'd say that I have between 800-1000 items,too. Some are definitely old and not worn for several years. Is that hoarding?? Haha. Unfortunately, they are several sizes because I am a weight fluctuator. I would imagine that there is more than one of me in this forum!!:woot::rolleyes::faint:

I used to move amongst 4 sizes and now I am between two sizes so there is hope for continuing improvement. I would think that maybe 250-300 would be perfect, all still in style and fitting....is that even possible????!!
