With each new season I find it necessary to go through my closet and get rid of, or purge rather, many of the older items that I no longer wear and are just taking up space. One great way to still feel good about letting go of some of my old clothes (because, let’s be honest – sometimes I can be a hoarder when it comes to clothes!) is to donate them to a cause I am passionate about. Awhile back someone told me about the American Cancer Society (ACS) Discovery Shop which is a thrift store which supports the cancer society. Having lost people close to me from cancer I felt that this was a great way to rid myself of some of my old clothes and make room for the new stuff!

This fall I’ve found myself updating my closet with new jackets and coats like this one from boohoo, leaving me less space for all of the old things I have been holding onto for far too long. So in updating my wardrobe this fall I’ve decided to get rid of some of my older items by donating them to our local ACS Discovery Shop – find one in your area here.

Both my shoes & coat are from Boohoo and both under $40 – these shoes are seriously my favorite because they go with everything and remind me of the Stuart Weitzman ‘nudist’ heels for a FRACTION of the cost! Also, my dress is a maternity dress (also under $40!) and has been one of my favorites during my pregnancy so far. I usually pair it with leopard flats and a blazer for work but it is fun to dress it up with heels too!

Update your closet with some chic coats & jackets this fall and donate some of your old stuff to a cause you are passionate about!

Do you guys have a cause you prefer to donate to? Let me know I would love to hear about it!
