I used the Post-it note decluttering method to sort out my overflowing clothes rail - it finally made me say goodbye to my going-out tops

I’ll be the first to admit that I find it very hard to part with clothes, but after testing out the Post-It note decluttering method, I was finally able to part ways with some of my garments.

It’s no surprise to anyone who knows me that I have a slightly unhealthy relationship with my clothes. I have hundreds of garments and for a long time felt adamant I needed to keep all of them - yes, including the ‘going out tops’ from my uni days which haven’t been worn in years.
