Let's be honest, no matter how many items of clothing you own, it's easy to feel like you never have anything to wear.
So, to help, we spoke to Practical Princess' Elika Gibbs and Virginia Feacey, country manager UK at second-hand designer resale site Rebelle, to find out how we can all lead less cluttered lives.
Keep your wardrobe organised with these eight tips:
1. Start with one big clear-out
Virginia suggests going through every item in your wardrobe and adding to 'Sell', 'Maybe', 'Customise' and 'Toss' piles. Get more advice on how to start this process and see how I got on with a mass clear-out right here.
Elika suggests to try things on as you go "because you may have forgotten about a missing gem that's been sitting in your wardrobe that you normally bypass. You might be able to alter it to make it more current."
2. And then continuously edit your wardrobe
Virginia recommends starting a one-in-one-out policy, to avoid cluttering. "For every new item you purchase", she says, "an old one needs to go. Or, if you really want to test yourself, try two."
Why? Elika tells us, "If you don't edit your wardrobe, you might think you have loads of clothes but actually, it's just that you have volume of things that no longer fit or are dated.
"By clearing out your wardrobe you prevent that, and you'll find getting dressed in the mornings so much easier."
2. Make some money with your unwanted items
"Just because you might not like it anymore, doesn't mean someone else won't," Virginia says. "It’ll also make you feel better if you want to purchase something new, if you're making money from the old". Use sites like Ebay and Depop for your high-street purchases, and ones like Rebelle for more high-end pieces.
