Edit Ruthlessly

As my favorite fashion advisor, Simon Doonan (www.simondoonan.net), says...edit ruthlessly. Granted, he was referring to your closet. I am referring to everything...your closets, your cabinets, your refrigerator, your garage...the works. If it does not make you feel absolutely fabulous, get rid of it. There will always be some peasant that will benefit from your castoffs. A queen has no business using a rusted knife, a pilling blanket or an ill-fitting pair of shoes. You deserve nothing less than the best...so why keep it around? If you are to lessen the amount of clutter in your life (more on that later), you need to be blunt. Cut to the quick. Get rid of it. Not only will you feel better when you look in your closets and cabinets and see yourself surrounded by only wonderful things, you will feel the warmth of knowing that you helped someone less fortunate with your supreme generosity.
