Minimizing my Wardrobe
Since moving into our current home, closet space is tight to say the least. And while I have always been fairly mindful of how much clothing I own, it has become abundant I do not have the room to house all the clothes I own at the moment. Which leads to a conundrum. Do I simply store it to pull it out later or do I simply reduce the amount of clothes I own?
I decided to reduce the amount of clothes I own by having a closet clean out. This includes donating, gifting, and selling a few pieces that I don't wear them anymore. I tend to sell pieces on Poshmark, as I feel secure buying and selling there.
There is nothing wrong with the pieces i’ve chosen to remove from my closet. Since my space has been minimized, I simply do not reach for these. And that is okay, they are perfectly good pieces ready to go to someone else's wardrobe. Not everything pictured has been listed. I list all pieces for sale on my Poshmark, HERE.
Before posting items for sale on Poshmark, I take photos of the piece on its own in good lighting. I note any imperfections and try to fix or clean them up as much as possible. In the listing I always include any imperfections and take unclose photos of details. I also try to post images of the garment on its own and being worn, not everything looks good on a hanger.
When I do sell an item on Poshmark, I always try to ship as soon as possible because I am always eager when I buy something for it to arrive and I try to give my buyers the best experience possible. I reuse old mailers or boxes to ship out and include a personal note.
