As I previously mentioned, I shop a lot; I mean really a lot. Sometimes the thought of how many tops, dresses, cardigans I own makes me feel a little sick; I mean I don't really need it all do I? Especially when many of the items will have been bought as spur of the moment purchases.
With that in mind and trying to keep to my 'be true to yourself' mantra, I am embarking upon a major clothing sort it. My trusty van is packed to the brim with bags and bags of clothes which need sorting out!
I <3 eBay. I love nothing more than a good mooch through the clothing and accessories to see what gems I can find. So whenever I have a big sort out, eBay is usually my first stop. However, I have a rule; if I don't think it will make more than a £1 or 2 I won't list it and it will be transferred to my second pile which is for the charity shop.
I also love charity shopping and have got some of my most favourite purchases from there; as a result I won't just send any old tat to the charity shop; they're not a dumping ground!
I'm not sure if my sorting attitude is right (am I being a little greedy keeping the 'gems' for me?) I just figure that clothes which are no longer wanted, or which have never been worn need to have a better use, so why not make a couple of extra pennies rather than having them hang unused in the wardrobe (I don't even want to think about the option of them making more room for new purchases...!)
