The bag challenge, weeks 1 & 2

In den letzten Wochen habe ich viel an unser Konsumkultur gedacht, und wie viele Kleider/Schuhe/Taschen ich selbst habe. Natürlich brauchte ich nicht diese Anzahl, die ich zur Zeit habe! Aber wenn Stil wichtig für mich ist, freue ich mich über meine vielseitige Auswahl von Klamotten. Es gibt nur leider einige Kleidungstücke, die ich nie trage und auf die muss ich verzichten. Darum gehe ich jetzt durch meinen Kleiderschrank. Taschen sind meine große Liebe. Und ich habe sehr viele Taschen, wie du in dem Foto oben sehen kannst. Ich wollte zuerst abklären, welche von diesen Taschen sind mir richtig lieb und welche sollte ich einfach verkaufen. Also ich hab mit "The bag challenge" angefangen. Ein paar finnische Blogger haben solche Herausforderung mit Schuhen, davon habe ich die Idee bekommen.
Die Regeln: Mindestens eine Tasche pro Tag muss getragen werden. Wenn man eines Tages keine Tasche braucht, muss man dann zwei Taschen in dem nächsten Tag tragen. Und wenn man eine Tasche schon getragt hab, kann man die nicht wieder tragen. Man kann mehrere Taschen pro Tag tragen, aber wenn eine neue Tasche nimmt, dann muss man nicht die vorige Tasche wieder tragen. Nach man eine Tasche getragen habt, muss mal entscheiden, ob man die Tasche behalten will oder nicht.
Lately I've been thinking about our consumer culture a lot. Especially how many clothes/shoes/bags I have myself. Of course I don't even need that kind of amount I have these days! But because style is important for me, I'm happy of my versatile selection of clothes. There are unfortunately just some pieces of clothes etc. I never wear and I should let them go. That's why I'm doing a big inventory on my closet. Bags are my big love. And I really have many bags, as you can see in the photo above. First I wanted to make it clear myself, which of these bags are beloved to me and which ones I shoud simply sell. So I began with "The Bag Challenge". A couple of Finnish bloggers (Iina & Veera) have almost this kind of challenge with shoes, there I got the idea.
The rules: You have to wear at least one bag per day. When you don't need a bag some day, you have to wear two bags next day. If you've already worn some bag, you mustn't wear it again. You can wear many bags on the same day, but when you take new bag, you can't wear the previous bag anymore. After wearing a bag, you have to decide if you want to keep it or not.
THE BIG QUESTION IS: TO KEEP OR NOT TO KEEP?
