    I have to confess I have larger and I have smaller.  I keep the smaller in case I ever lose a bunch of weight --- don't want to have no clothes to wear on that day.  LOL

    LOL I keep thinking I might get smaller but so far it's not happening.

    I'm not getting bigger either though - so that's a good thing!

    NOPE......I keep the size I am...nothing bigger or smaller....talk about sabotaging yourself....that would do it..."oh I just love that dress/top/bottoms....I guess I will GAIN weight to fit into it"     I DON'T THINK SO!!!!!!!

    if it's to big...get rid of it...if it's to small....get rid of it....

  • Re: In your closet --- clothes that no longer fit -

    Yes I do.  Most of them I am trying to get rid of, bagging them as I come across them.

    A few, like a silk dress from the 1960s which was my mother-in-law's, I will probably keep, even though I'll never fit into it again.  As a keepsake, not as clothing.

    False

    A lot of this is folk memories and cultural hangovers.

  • Re: In your closet --- clothes that no longer fit -

    Yes, because I'm going to lose weight. The story of my life.

    False

    lady...have something made out of the dresses...pillows or a small quilt like thing...if you can't do it I am sure you can find someone who can....I have seen that done on What Not To Wear....they made pillows out of a garment that one of their guests would not part with....it was cool and outside the closet for them to see everyday...

  • Re: In your closet --- clothes that no longer fit -

    Yes, on one side, I have some that are too big. I was taking a cancer med that made me gain a lot of weight, and then when I got cancer again, they changed my med, so I lost some weight, but I keep the clothes, just in case there is another med change. So I will keep them until I am through with my cancer battle.

    In the middle, I have the size that fit me now.

    On the other side, I keep the ones that fit before I got cancer, not knowing just how much of this weight I will lose.

    Turtle hope your health gets better and better. Smart to keep the sizes and not go into more expense. Cheese it is wonderful you losing so much weight.  I have gone through my clothes but still have some that need to be donated.
