If you spend ages planning your outfits and shopping for new clothes, then shove everything into an overstuffed wardrobe or stuff them into drawers that are bursting at the seams, you're not giving your clothes the respect they deserve. Organise your wardrobe so you can actually see what you have. Be ruthless when you get rid of things that don't fit to make space for other items. Resist the urge to hoard things "just in case" unless you truly have the space to do so.
If you can't be bothered to list unwanted items on eBay or Depop or take them to a charity shop, bag them up and give Traid a ring. They will collect bags of unwanted clothes from some areas for free and make sure they are recycled or reused!
Once your wardrobe is tidy, make sure you're cleaning your clothes correctly. Follow the directions on the label, split by colour, and make things last as long as possible. While a lot of handwash-only items are safe in the machine at low temperatures, don't risk it with investment purchases or favourite items. Oh, and find a dry cleaner you really trust before you hand over your favourite coat!
