You can do this. Dressing with less is much easier than you might think. In fact, it makes everything else in life easier too. The thing I love most about Project 333 is that participants come from all over the world and all different life circumstances.
You can do Project 333 if you …
- are a man
- are a woman
- are a mom
- work full time
- travel
- are a shopaholic
- are married
- are single
- live in the tropics
- live in New England
- have a big closet or no closet
I got up close and personal with a few people who have participated and they were gracious enough to share their lists. Seeing what others are wearing might help you create your own list.

I work outside the home in an office, but during the summer can get away with more casual clothes. I’m also trying to lose weight, so I want to avoid investing in a new wardrobe for a while. In the meantime, I try to stick to stuff that I can wear at home but is also office appropriate.

(Courtney, your Pinterest seems to be getting clogged up with posts (i.e., advertisements) from clothing retailers – hope there’s a way you can keep it more on track with photos from Project 333 devotees.)
On a more positive note – I finally took 4 big garbage bags of clothes/etc. to the charity drop-off last weekend. What a load off! There’s still more to do, but I’m most of the way there. Huge thanks & kudos to you & your blog!

aggie, will you please email me with some of the adverts on my Pin Board. I’ll take care of it right away, but am having trouble discerning relevant recommendations from members with spammy ads. I really appreciate your help! send me a couple of links if you don’t mind to bemorewithless at gmail dot com.
Congrats on your donations!
