Project . Closet . Cleanout

I'm bad at keeping New Year's resolutions -- last year I kept a full "0" of the resolutions I made.

So this year I'm starting early. My one real vice is that I'm shopper. My name is Kristen, and I'm a shopper. So I'm trying to pare down my closet and I'm starting with what takes up the most room: coats. Send me into any kind of clothing store, and I'll find a coat that I like. I have roughly a zillion of them. So I've started project closet clean out by...wait for it...shopping.

Today I ordered one tailored, very pretty, classic, black winter coat from J Crew.



It will go with t-shirts just as well as with pretty little dresses. But this also means that this week I have a full eight vintage coats that will be hitting the Pretty Little World Store. Everything from plaid, to boucle, to shearling will go, so that I can stick to my early resolution! Wish me luck!

Good luck with your resolution! This is something I need to be better at too. But I can't bring myself to get rid of much. The item pulled at my heartstrings once, so there's still a special spot in my heart for them! I just need to shop less.

Hahahahaha. I can't stop buying coats either! They are taking over my apartment!

Speaking of coats ... have you ever seen the Christina Applegate show "Samantha Who?"... The wardrobe department must have 6 dozen coats for her character - all are gorgeous.

I haven't seen it, but if there's a fabulous wardrobe, I'll have to check it out!
