Fashion & Beauty: The Great Clear Out

Every two years I like to do a big clear out of my wardrobe. It's not that my style changes all that drastically, but it's better to have a pared down wardrobe that I wear and use as opposed to too much clutter taking up space.
I did notice, though, with this clear out, some ways my style has changed.
1. I wound up putting a lot of patterned, brightly colored clothes in the donate pile. I wound up keeping a lot of mix and match, work ready neutrals.
2. The patterns I did keep are fairly simple. Stripes, small florals, and one elegant paisley.
3. The colors I kept are more on the pastel, muted side. With a few exceptions.
4. Everything goes with at least two other things.
I'm far from a minimalist or capsule wardrobe girlie, but this clear out has me looking forward to my no-buy year.
