All week I've been chronicling my efforts to get my home office back in shape. It started HERE with the clean-up and then HERE with the design. "Started from the bottom now we here" is literally echoing in my mind. Some of you may not get that but anyway, I couldn't not share that which I happened upon as I was cleaning and de-cluttering. Some discoveries brought back memories and others
made me laugh out loud, literally. As I mentioned in earlier posts in this series, not only did my office floor become a stow-away for shoes but the room itself became a drop-off for everything, some things I hadn't seen in awhile like:

The discovery of these items made me laugh, smile and shed a tear even. Everything from a note from my daughter while in attendance at the last Blogalicious conference and the funniest question from her was whether I was making new friends. Also, a sticker from my first Electric run that I did with my best girls last year. A signed Kennedy Center playbill from my fave jazz artist, Kurt Elling!!! That was a moment. Man if I lose this stuff, I will definitely shed tears. I gotta create a memory box. |
Uh, what are you doing here? A brand new pair of men's shoes. I think Payless sent me these kicks way back when as per a new line they were introducing. They are actually nice kicks. Too bad I have no one to give them to. #TalesOfSingledom |
"Hello Lova!" Be still my heart. I hadn't seen these in forever. These Coach pumps were like my first high end shoe purchase. I adore these pumps but I haven't worn them in I don't remember when. The heel on one is kinda messed up and they are in need of a lil' cleaning but I shall never part with them. I think I bought these pre-kids when I used to get my party on so there are alot of stories attached to these HA! Me and you shall never part .. |
I love em' so much I had to treat you to a second pic. |
Oh, this was a winner. So if you follow me, you no doubt know I love to shop. Lemme say that again, I LOVE to shop. Anyway, this Marc Jacobs jumper was one of my first purchases from Net-A-Porter, which is an online site of which you can shop designer fashion less the designer prices. There are many like sites but this one is a fave. And so upon discovering it, my curiosity was sparked. Mind you I purchased this eons ego and it's a size xs. I'm so not an extra small anymore but even then it was a lil' big. So imagine my delight upon stripping down in my office to try on this jumper, to find that it FIT!!!!!! These thighs and hips fit into an extra small! And not only did it fit, I was able to zip it up too. Oh, the possibilities!!! |
I may just have to clutter up another space just for the sake of discovering new thangs. What has been one of your most prized discoveries when cleaning or de-cluttering spaces in your home?
