Purge

Jeans: Topshop (similar); Top: Topshop; Jacket: Zara (similar); Shoes: Aldo (similar)

I recently came to the realization that I’m a hoarder after emptying out my wardrobe. I decided to purge myself of anything I’ve not worn in the past 6 months. The result was astonishing. I’m not sure why I even owned patterned, backless tops with floral print and body con dresses that are so hideous I daren’t relive the memory. I blame college. Point is, in order to define your style and figure out what you need to buy to achieve your fashion goals, you need to go through the process of throwing out the shit that’s rotting away in your closet. No one needs 60 pairs of jeans and 200 tank tops. Chances are, they haven’t seen the light of day in two years. So do yourself a favour and get to the bottom of the I have nothing to wear dilemma. Empty out your closet. It’ll get you one step closer to curating the things that’ll actually resolve said dilemma for good.

    I took this post very personally! I know I have to clean out some stuff in my closet and throw them away (even if it can break my heart!!)! xx

      It’s a hard process, I feel like I was attached to some of the things I had, even though I never wore them, but I feel so much lighter now! xo

    Those shoes are incredible. I just had the realization the other day that I have WAY TOO MANY clothes. I think it’s a good rule to get rid of anything you haven’t worn for 6 months, you must feel so much better!

      Thanks Laura! It’s crazy how much things pile up, we just don’t realize how much stuff we’re storing! It’s a good idea to go through your stuff, then you can go shopping and actually have space to put your new clothes lol! xo

    It is quite assuming what you will find when you clean out your closet. A lot of “why would I buy it?”.. I admire that you did it.

      They’re from Topshop – definitely my favourite pair of jeans. I got them last year, but I posted a link for a similar option! xo
