I bought a blouse two years ago with an autumn-leaves pattern that I liked. The colors went together nicely—rust red and dark brown standing out from pale green and gold.
Unfortunately, the colors didn’t go nearly as well with the caramel-gold highlights I got when I decided to change my hairstyle last year! I didn’t realize they would clash until I put on the blouse last week, expecting it would be just right for the season. Looked in the mirror, and—well, not so much. Just like leaves falling from the trees, it was that blouse’s time to go!
About Clutter Comedy: Every Sunday (which I envision as a day of rest after a productive week of de-cluttering) I post a Clutter Comedy article describing my most memorable clutter discovery of the week. Other bloggers who wish to join in are welcome—just post a link in the comments! There’s no need to publish any “before” photos of your clutter, if they are too embarrassing. The idea is simply to get motivated to clean it up, while having a bit of fun too!
Hi Meg, I’m laughing now, it’s a nice blouse, but you are right, sometimes is better get rid of it.
Indeed — sad but true!
