What's in your closet?

I thought I would share with you what I've selected for my Project 333. You can read about Project 333 here and Janet also blogged about it here. I know Slastena is doing it as well.
If you want to see my OOTD you can scroll down.

Basically, the idea is to select 33 items of clothing and wear it for 3 months. This sounds very limiting, I know, but it is not as hard as it seems. I blogged about it here.

I am not too dogmatic about it and my list does not include jewelry or hats and scarfs. I am also letting myself to add shoes, if needed, but I am trying to first select from the ones I've chosen. Lounge wear is not to be included either. At first, I selected about 88 items, but after 10 days I have been able to narrow it down further. I also plan to swap few items (maybe 5?) around mid February.

So here is my current working closet:

4 double serge wool skirts: black, ochre, green and red rose print:


4 pairs of pants: skinny jeans, chinos, wool in camel and charcoal (not pictured because I was wearing them):


4 button down shirts: black with polka dots, blue Liberty print and 2 (!) white shirts.


6 Tops: navy stripe, black stripe thermal, black/natural colorblock, navy, white and red.
6 sweaters: black v-neck, cobblestone cardi, black cardi, camel v-neck, blue v-neck(not pictured), navy cardi


Two dresses (not pictured separately): one black and one paisley (Terra Paisley).

That's all folks.

Other items visible are my lounge wear.

This adds up to 26 items. Other items are 2 coats, 2 purses, 2 pairs of boots, and 3 pairs of shoes. 35 total. Close enough for me. I am not too strict about the rules. If it gets very cold I will wear my puffer or snow shoes but I did not count them. If I go out I may use different purse. You get the idea. It supposed to be fun and learning experience, not some kind of punishment.

The rest of my clothes are in different closets or boxed. Some of it you can see in the top picture.

So far it has been easy. I did not get bored yet. I was actually surprised that I can still come up with many outfits and be happy with them.

This is today's outfit, still keeping with my Blue Theme:

I am wearing couple of non J.Crew items: the striped top is from Banana Republic and so is my purse. My necklace is from Lucky Jeans and my shoes are Sofft. The rest is J.Crew: Viridian Green pencil skirt, Roadster Boots from couple of years ago, Elements coat and Spring 2012 scarf.

What do you think? Have you ever considered narrowing down your wardrobe? Have you been successful? Did it help with your shopping habits? Do tell.
