Cattitude and Adrian went to our storage unit a few days ago, transferred clothing from packing boxes into suitcases, and brought it home. We sorted through it, mostly this afternoon, tried some things on, and are keeping a bit under half of it. The rest we are giving away, via donation boxes.
Some of what we're keeping will be very useful: I'm particularly pleased to have unearthed a leather jacket that's a good weight for spring and fall weather, something I badly needed. There's also a pair of jeans that still fit, which will be useful. Cattitude's haul included a jacket and a couple of nice shirts, and Adrian is taking a black silk baseball jacket that used to fit me and no longer does.
We're also keeping a few things more for sentimental value than because we expect to wear them again, and we may cull more later; do I really have any use for the pocketless silk dress I bought for Jo and Rysmiel's wedding and may have worn once since then?

That dress sounds utterly beautiful, though.
Also, thank you for the storage dive. :D
