Clearing out my closet

I haven't jumped into any spring cleaning since we are moving I figure I will be spring cleaning on my way out and spring clean the new place on my way in!

BUT....what I did do, is spring clean my wardrobe. I decided that I needed to go through my closet and clean, toss and give-away anyway before packing unwanted/torn items.

First thing I did was pull everything out, section by section. I have several drawers, shelves and then a higher hanging section, a lower hanging section and then a longer (for dresses and such) section.

I started with the longer section. I pulled everything off the rack and asked myself these questions:

#1 - Does it fit? -- Yes, keep pile or No, toss or give-away pile

#2 - Is it stylish? -- Yes, keep pile or No, toss or give-away pile

#3 - Have you worn it in the last 3 months? -- Yes, keep pile or No, toss or give-away pile

Then I put all the "keep" items back in the closet.

Then, I went through the toss/give-away pile to see what items should be tossed (torn up or heavily stained).

The next section was my shoes.... I have a ton of shoes, I got rid of ones I haven't worn in months and even found 2 pairs that are too tight (so why keep those??)

The above picture is before I cleaned and the below picture is what it looked like after.... not great, but not bad either!

I need to still finish up the rest of the shelves and sections tonight, but at least it is a start.
