Just had a tidy up & a bit of a clear out of wardrobe, this is what I have now. Is it a lot?my DH thinks so! I am an oldie (44) so some of the items have been around for years, some are classics, some I just love. I wear 80% of my clothes, the other 20% have yet to decide what to do with. Here goes.....
30 Pairs of trousers, including Jeans, leggings, crops...everything
12 skirts. Mix of summer, winter, smart and casual.
6 tunic tops. for over leggings or jeans.
15 Dresses. everything from beach dresses, to knitted dresses and everything inbetween.
80 tops. from jersey basics,to going out and summer holiday.
50 Jumpers/cardigans/wraps/sweatshirts etc. (love them all,oldest is gardening jumper which is 20 years old)!
10 coats, jackets. from trench coat to ski Jacket.
35 pairs of shoes, including high heels and trainers.
5 pairs of flip flops
10 pairs of boots
6 handbags
4 evening bags
20 bras
30 knickers.
That's it...the lot.
what do you think? what does your wardrobe have in it?

Wow, you must be able to go a long time between laundries Grin

I may be missing an item or two, but my wardrobe contains approx:

  • four pairs of trousers/jeans
  • one skirt
  • one cashmere jumper
  • one casual jumper
  • two cashmere cardigans
  • one boyfriend cardigan that is too big but ok for slobbing around
  • three vest tops
  • four t-shirts
  • one shirt
  • three dresses - two smart, one casual
  • a handful of belts/necklaces etc
  • three bras (one is a sports bra)
  • about 20 pairs of knickers, but only a dozen or so that fit, as the rest are post natal huge ones that only get worn when I am lax about the laundry Grin
  • four pairs of boots
  • one pair of smart heels
  • one handbag

I need more stuff Envy

I have never counted my clothes, as I put the summer ones away in the winter and viceversa. I really don't know how many pieces I have, but I am certain I don't possess 20 bras. Are you sure they are all the right size for you?

I probably have similar to you OP other than I have a lot more bags and only one coat ( used for when I go back to chilly England for Christmas)

I did dump/ donate about half my wardrobe before I emigrated 2 years ago but seem to have bought back identical items again.

I also. Have eight boxes stored in the big yellow ..and have no idea what's in them ..

I know there is one red shoe in there as I packed the other when we moved and the twin is 3000 miles away ..I refuse to throw it away so it sits forlornly in the cupboard .

Justanother, most of the bras fit....just on different days of the month! some a bigger cup size. a couple of pretty ones belonging to sets 3 sports bras. a couple of black, same white and nude. a couple of strapless, a couple in weird colours...can't remember what possesed me to buy them, so yes about 20 bras that fit (ish) ....
