I didn't take photos often but I did keep track of what I was wearing. It was an unusual month because I moved and have been setting up house.
Some of my wardrobe remains in Ontario. I left items that I felt I'd be unlikely to wear due to different weather conditions. My current numbers (excluding gear and sleepwear and undies) are around 133.
Here's what I wore:
- 4 of 7 bags (just over half)
- 5 of 23 footwear. (I didn't have most shoes until mid-month and then the weather changed.)
- 2 of 9 coats
- 3 of 10 dresses (stopped wearing summer dresses and had no occasion for truly dressy items)
- 2 of 6 skirts (stopped wearing skirts due to weather shifts)
- 0 of 7 pants. (these are mostly late fall/ winter items or high summer linen)
- 8 of 9 jeans (it's jean season!)
- 0 of 3 shorts (too cool)
- 6 of 11 toppers (beginning of topper season)
- 4 of 4 cardigans (easy to wear and carry)
- 7 of 17 shirts/ blouses
- 5 of 12 sleeveless tops
- 8 of 18 knitwear (some knits still too warm/ bulky)
- 7 of 9 scarves (good transitional items)
61 items -- or close to half the working wardrobe!
My most repeated items at more than 10 wears were my silver sneakers and 2 of my bags. All jeans except one got at least 5 wears. My most worn topper was my grey cardigan (about 10 wears) and my plaid jacket (5 wears). My utility coat got a lot of wear also.I'm surprised that I wore so many items but perhaps I shouldn't be since it's a transitional season. It's clear that I wear different clothes in my new climate -- long sleeved shirts get much more play than they ever do at home. I repeated each one I wore multiple times. Jeans remain a true staple.
