I closet purged. I do this about twice a year and throw a critical eye on the items in my closet. I’m either in love with it, or it goes. Items that go either get donated to local charitable organizations or I will sell them on Poshmark. Huh? Poshmark? More on that in a future post…(!)
Very rarely am I sitting on the fence about whether I should keep something or not, but these two skirts have thrown me for a loop. Should they stay in my warm, comfy closet…or should they go?
The first skirt is this full midi. Why have I only worn this once before? It’s totally on-trend.
Full Midi Skirt:
Mine / ModCloth / eShakti / JollyChic / Express
Cap Toe Heels:
Mine / Sole Society / Zappos / Chinese Laundry / Milanoo
Oversized Clutch:
Mine- sold out / ASOS / Bluefly / Bluefly / Barneys
Collared Necklace:
Mine / Bauble Bar / Nordstrom / ASOS / C Wonder
So what exactly is my problem here??? A mystery best left to some other professional.
The other is this faux leather skirt. Again, only worn once.
Faux Leather Skirt:
Mine / JollyChic / ASOS / Barneys / Nordstrom
Utility Vest:
Mine- old / JCP / Barneys / Saks / Forever21 / YOOX
Boots:
Mine / Zappos / Free People / Chinese Laundry / Neiman Marcus
Ok…is it my “I’m just waiting by the phone for Vogue to call” pose? The skirt length? What? This skirt is also cute and on-trend.
Whenever I have to make a super huge life-altering decision, such as this ~ there’s only one place for me to go. I only “go there” when I simply can’t make the decision on my own and I completely trust the advice that I receive. So, here we go…
Do I keep the peach full midi skirt?
Perfect!…and is the cute little black skirt returning to my closet?
Buh Bye, little black skirt. Buh Bye.
Good answers from the “Gismo” — I could use one of those!
The Gismo is the infamous Magic 8 ball…. an old trusted friend.
I purged in January, now what’s Poshmark?
Ahhhh… my dear friend, I’m posting about it next week. It’s coming!
OMG!
I love love love the first outfit! You’re so beautiful!
xo
love the boots, girl!
yep – I kept those babies.
Consigning your fabulous cast-offs locally to a shop such as ClothesHorse Carousel is also a great option…
I absolutely agree!
Totally agree with the 8 Ball. Love Poshmark, I’ve found many wonderful items. Love the photos, you photograph well.

Thanks, Barbara! So far, you are the only other person who knows about Poshmark. I have found many interesting items on your blog as well!
I think you are making the right choice, the leather skirt will start to feel too short and the peach midi has so many outfit options, always in style and it looks great on you!
Thank you!
