We all have those crazy mid-riff bearing tops and super short minis that were wore back in our younger days and if even they still fit and you still look fabulous, you will probably never wear them. You’re too old now for such get-ups so close the chapter on your early twenties and move on to more classy ensembles.

How many clothes do we hang on to telling ourselves – ‘when I lose weight, this will look so great’. Give it up! If you lose weight (and that’s a big ‘if’), chances are you will prefer buying something new and still won’t wear this. Make sure your wardrobe only contains clothes that fit – neither too small or too big. The rest have to find a new home.

Keeping your ex’s shirts in your closet, or the skirt you wore on your first date is senseless if he is no longer in your life. Return the shirt and dump the skirt so that you can move on with your life and maybe find room for new shirts.
Cleaning out your wardrobe allows you to de-clutter your life and start anew. It may break your heart when you’re doing it, but later when you have a roomier closet filled with your latest purchases; it’s definitely going to be well worth the heartbreak.
