I feel your pain. I have a good clearout about once a year and if I haven't worn an item in a year I get rid. Unless it's going out stuff,which I don't wear very often. I was thinking only yesterday if I should make more of an effort. Seen a woman in a lovely dress in Tesco but always think I look frumpy in them but would love to look smarter. I live in jeans and jumpers,t-shirts and shirts and always tell myself I will dress smarter when I've lost some weight grin

Help!
I'm sitting on the bed with an obscenely huge heap of probably more than 35 skirts, and there's goodness knows how many teeshirts, sweaters and shirts.
I'm now retired, certainly I don't need 90% 80% of it but how do I decide what to give to the charity shop?
Do people wear skirts at home? What do I really need? I'd love to dress more smartly but instead slob around in ancient jeans and fleeces, I never wear makeup, should I make more effort?
And that's just my winter clothes.......?
