Closet Quest Continues

I have been going through my closet at a snail's pace. It is really weird, but I seem to have a hard time getting rid of clothes. Even when the clothes are worn out, old, and were cheap- I struggle to get rid of them. So weird... Anyhoo... I am hoping to get this all in order by autumn. Anyhoo, anyway- here is an outfit  I put together. Tell me what you think? Would you wear this? Too much colour?

Things That I Do .....

That Might Not Be Normal.....

1. I keep my underwear in my bathroom drawer.
2. I moved the laundry hamper to the hallway for our dirty clothes.
3. I don't care whether or not my side dishes match the main part of the meal.
4. I read magazines from end to beginning and usually in the shower.


That's all for now.

Front Yard Project

Yes, I actually accomplished something! It is very amateur but I can be a little proud-eh?

The lilies are from the altar- I try to grab one every year. This year, I picked up six. Won't those be pretty when in bloom next year?

 

Now, onto another landscape project!

My Closet Quest

 

Thought you might like to see a few pictures of a dress I will keep in my closet. As I stated a post or two back- I am slowly weeding out clothes that are just yucky.

 

 

I wore a green tank to help with the gap.

So many colours to work with for accents and jewelry ideas!
