The Year of Living Minimally - Week Forty-two

closetThe Becoming Minimalist blog has the same theme that I'd planned on this week, so I'll share their post and then write about it. Joshua Becker's title is " 8 Reasons Successful People Are Choosing to Wear the Same Thing Every Day." Now, you might be totally repulsed by that idea, but hold off on your judgment until you read the post (by clicking on the highlighted text at the beginning of this paragraph).Uniforms are great! Whether you wear scrubs, or khakis and a polo shirt, or black pants and t-shirt, your agonizing over what to wear is non-existent. Becker says, "We have no idea how much of a burden our possessions have become until we begin to remove them."So what if you work in an office, as I did? I quit that job seven years ago, and I'm still donating bags of clothes and shoes. Now I go into an office one day a week, and I have no stress about what to wear. I saved a couple of pairs of slacks and three or four shirts, all appropriate for an office.Have you heard about Project 333? The link will bring you to the website, but it's the idea of wearing only 33 items over a 3-month time period (a season). All clothing, accessories, jewelry, outerwear, and shoes count toward your number. You don't have to count wedding ring(s), underwear, sleepwear, in-home lounge wear, and workout clothing. Well, I'm in! And next week I'll detail what I compiled for my 33 items.What about you? Could you try Project 333?
