Project 333, Phase 1: The List

Here is my final Phase 1 list, for Project 333 - - the exercise that will minimize my wardrobe and hopefully help simplify my life. (If you are not familiar with Project 333, take a peek at this blog I posted a little while back.)  


I am surprised at how much preparation has gone into this, but after weeks and weeks of purging and planning, consideration and anticipation, I have crafted my list of 33 items that will carry me through the next 3 months, beginning 05.10.2011.


And the winners are. . . .

___________________________________________________________
* I am choosing to have an alternate item. In a few weeks, when the tumultuous weather simmers down, I will shed the Mac coat from my list, and rotate-in a sky blue tank top from American Eagle - - which very often is a weekend favourite or comfy under-jacket shell option for me.
