I'm Stephanie Safarian and this is episode 72.

You are listening to the Sustainable Minimalist Podcast,

a show about living simply and sustainably with your family.

Here's your host, Stephanie Safarian.

Hi friends, welcome back.

When it comes to our closets, the most ego-friendly thing we can do is wear what we already own.

Wear it and wear it and wear it again until an item is worn out.

Don't buy new. Use what you already have. But what if you're keeping items in your

closet and in your drawers that you simply aren't wearing? If we're being

honest, what if you're keeping things that you will probably never even wear again?

That's what we're talking about today. My guest is Amanda Warfield. She's what I consider to be a capsule wardrobe expert and

we're not talking about capsule wardrobes today but we are talking about the

seven pieces of clothing most of us, even me, keep in our closets that simply need to go.

Now if you've been listening to this podcast for a while, it's no secret to you that my closet is a difficult

place for me personally to declutter. I've bought a lot of clothes in the past that

I just shouldn't have bought and getting rid of clothes I spent good money on is not

something I take lightly. If you can relate to my closet woes, you will

definitely want to stick around for today's episode and you will also definitely want to pick up the freebie that Amanda brought along because no joke, it's amazing.

It is a closet flow chart that tells you exactly what to do with every single

piece of clothing in your closet and in your drawers.

Do you keep it?

Do you donate it?
