I totally agree! I wrote something along those lines when I first started my blog (http://www.closet-coach.com/2009/03/30/take-a-wardrobe-vacation/) and every time I create a packing list for a trip I'm always a little surprised by how short the list can be while still being enough for several days. Not only that, but I usually see a pattern in *what* I pack--if I'm bringing 5 shirts, it's frequently the same 5 shirts out of 10 or 20 or however many that are in my closet.

If only all wardrobe editing could be achieved by taking a vacation! :)
