My home has a "closet" that's truly offensive in every sense of the word. It's in the corner of my bedroom and can maybe hold, I don't know, a shoe or two. So my husband and I had to turn our second bedroom into a space with clothes racks and a dresser just so I had a place to hang and store things. I know what you're thinking: You have an entire room dedicated to your clothes? Well technically, yes, but we never wanted the room to feel like a closet, so I'm limited to two clothes racks and an overstuffed dresser. I know—cue the violins.
Now, before the pandemic, I was good about getting rid of things I didn't wear regularly. But nowadays, that's gotten harder for me to do. I'm not wearing the same things I used to wear when, you know, I actually had places to be. So how do I know if I'm actually over something? Despite this conundrum, my urge to shop is in full force, as is my lack of inspiration with my current wardrobe. With that being said, I'm willing to get rid of stuff just so I can freshen things up around here. Here are 36 cheap Amazon pieces I'm willing to make room for that won't plague me with buyer's remorse, either.
Tops
This is giving me major vacation vibes with zero traveling needed.
I can't stop thinking about all of the high-waist bottoms I can wear this with.
