and I recently got the itch to clean out my closet. Now you should know I have a LOT of clothes. Too small ones from when I was a teen (not so long ago), a few stray maternity clothes, clothes I wore right after baby, and a bunch of clothes that I have just bought- some I wear some I don't. So I donated EVERYTHING I thought I might not wear again- and only kept the ones I would wear. Some things are a little too big but I figured those would be my 'comfy tops' and didn't want to throw out every piece of clothing I own.Anyway, I had a bunch of pants I got rid of. But some I kept. Mostly because, even though they were too big (i'm a 7 down from 11) that I could make them work SOMEHOW. a lot were really cute and expensive! But yesterday I decided I didn't want them. No matter how cute they were, I don't want to keep clothes around that don't fit me like they're supposed to when I can buuy more really hot looking pants.
So I took 12 pairs of pants: jeans, slacks, cords, cargo pants, everything that was even a size too big and gave them to my stepdaughter who used to wear the same size as me. She was SOOO happy! She's 12 and for her it was like going shopping! They were all really new and well taken care of and she was just ecstatic because lets face it, I have impeccable taste. hahah
So yeah, It was awesome- I feel crazy good for 2 reasons: 1. i made my stepdaughter uber happy and she feeling like she hit the jackpot and 2. I let go of one thing that i was afraid to. like deep down i wouldnt get rid of all my clothes 'just in case'. now that theyre gone i feel like there's no holding me back.
