If you plan to go out, or to travel, you need tp pick clothes suitable for your destination. If you fly from the north of the globe to the south, the seasons are reverses.
Drawers full of clothes. Photo by Angela Lansbury.I do not have a thing to wear
I've loads of clothes like uncombed hair
I've silk which does not go with leather
And jeans which do not go with feathers
I've boots although it's hot outside
A missing button, or a stain
I've lots of stuff, too much to hide
Broken umbrellas for the rain
My new top is a size too small
I can't do its zip up at all
And most of the elastic's gone
One dress too short and one too long
I ought to sell what I don't need
But selling's such a dirty deed
An empty shelf? Destroyed! Not freed!
An empty shelf need socks like seeds
Although the bedroom looks like hell
Looking at it makes me unwell
I hunt and sort, but truth to tell
I cannot find one thing to sell.
I cannot throw a thing away
I know selling should start today
What I'd ask is too much to pay
And so the whole lot has to stay.
What do you wear, I hear you say
I cannot make a decision
So I've found a good solution
I wear the same dress every day.

Tips on packing
I start packing months in advance. Anything vital is either packed or added to a packing list. Clothes which dry fast. Items which match. Gifts for others.
When packing for holidays, one black skirt or pair of jeans with three or four tops in various matching or contrasting colours gives several outfits with less space. However, I find dressing is quicker if you have one pull on dress. Add a couple of scarves to doll it up for dinner in a smart restaurant or hotel.
