Start by finding the number of each type of clothing.
- She has "brown pair and a gray pair of slacks" - 2 slacks
- "brown blouse, ayellow blouse, and a white blouse" - 3 blouses
- "blue sweater and a white sweater" - 2 sweaters.
Each outfit contains 1 of each type of clothing. To find the number of possibilities, multiply the number of possibilities of each type:
2*3*2 = 12
