I have a closet cleaning question...
So I have these nice button up shirts and two suit jackets I used to wear when I taught creative writing. Now I work in a fairly casual office (cardigans and dress pants, knee-length skirts and blouses, etc), so I find myself very rarely wearing the button ups and Never wearing the blazers.
My question is this--should I hold on to these things in case I get a new job that requires this type of dress, or should I donate them to someone who would wear them more now?
I say I like the button down and jeans or blazer and jeans look, but I don't personally Ever wear it...
I know it would be at least a year before I would be able to work a new job, and I'd only really be looking for teaching jobs again. I'm not even sure if a woman who teaches creative writing would be expected to wear a blazer?
anyways, any advice on this would be very welcome! My apartment is small and I hate to hang on to clothes for no reason!
I'd hang onto them just in case. I have one dress suit that I'll probably never wear again, but even if you don't wear outfits like that to the office, they're always good for interviews. I'd keep at least one of them. ;) But that's just me!
ReplyDeletei think you are right---i just feel like i have too much clothes right now, so i'm looking for things to get rid of lol
