I wanted to start that clothing challenge from something manageable and relatively easy. I was going through some items of clothing in my head doing a rough estimate how many I think I have. I know there will be very difficult ones! Like T-shirts. I love t-shirts. I wear them pretty much every day. I'm wearing one right now...
[It has a Superman logo on it, so it's only for home. I won't be caught publicly supporting the wrong superhero. I'm a Batman kinda gal!]
...so there will be a lot of them. I'm pretty happy in my ignorance when it comes to the amount of them. There might, or might not, be an entire drawer for t-shirts.
I started thinking something I don't wear that much... Shorts? I think I have 5 pairs or so. Three of which are for sports. They are in the basement with the out of season clothes, so I'm not going to bring the box and more stuff upstairs right now.
Ok, skirts. I think I have 10.
These are very typical skirts for me in the colder seasons... A lot of black, zippers and fun textures No. Wait. I forgot about this one. So, elev... No, I forgot that one too.
Screw it. I'll just go count.
...
18 friggin' skirts!
These, on the other hand, are not typical at all. Even the shapes are unusual for me. It's even possible that there is one more hiding in that out of season box...
I do wear a lot of skirts in the summer, so I knew there would be quite a few. Eighteen just seems a lot!
I might do an actual post about the specifics of this challenge if you guys are interested. I just wanted to share my astonishment and building dread about what I got myself into!
How about you try this out too! Just pick one category of clothing, make a guess and actually count how many you have! Please share the results! I'd love to hear about it!
