Please list any other “wardrobe malfunction” you’ve experienced that we didn’t include above.I have about 8 or 10 dresses that I bought online or in stores that I have yet to wear.
Complete the following statement: “The biggest problem with managing my wardrobe is that __________.”Most of my clothes are geared to winter and I don't have a lot of lightweight summer things (except for some of those sun dresses I have yet to wear). I'm working part time and teaching but semi-retired. I also have jackets that I have not worn, having purchased the thinking they would look nice for business purposes. Ugh!!!
What specific categories or types of clothing do you most struggle to manage?Winter clothes for sure!
Here’s your chance to ask Gayle and Ed any question you’re curious about. It need not be related to this survey’s topic(s). If we think that your question—and our answer—might be useful or instructive to The Clutter Fairy Weekly audience, we’ll share them in an upcoming episode.I keep hoping I'm going to lose weight but that's not happening because I don't have a plan. I hesitate to get rid of the one-size-too-tight clothes because I DREAM that I might fit into them one day.
Future topics

How many cleaning supplies do I really need? Several bottles ended up in the utility sink much to my husband's chagrin when he wanted to wash something off. I have a cabinet and a rollaway cart next to the washer filled with cleaners. When I see something on sale (a really good sale) I think, "Geez, I need to get that now."
