I *always* hang clothes to the right of whatever section they belong in (turtlenecks, long sleeves, etc..) whenever I put them up from doing laundry. Then I just start at the left and put things in a box until I find something I remember wearing. They stay in the box until the beginning of the next season, if I didn’t open the box, it all goes to Goodwill.

Suits and fancy dresses are exempt from this sorting, although I hate wearing them, I know I need them :(

I’ve moved 4 times already, although not for the last 4 years. And sad to say that I’ve kept most of my stuff since. I still have stuff from when I was in pre-school. I don’t have the heart yet to part with them. I also have a mountain of stuffed toys that are just in boxes (NEVER! I’ll never give them away!) and since I graduated from uni about a year and a half ago, I also still haven’t thrown out stuff from my last 2-3 years of school. I just threw away my Engineering books and papers 2 years ago (after being in English for almost 2 years) so… maybe after another 2 years, I’ll be able to part with my Uni stuff. XD

I don’t have a lot of clothes to begin with so there’s nothing much to sort there. But I also have clutter (not clothes) in my closets.

My room is definitely full of clutter.
