Out With The Old And In With The New
Almost every closet needs a good clean out as the new year starts through to spring. It is always worth taking a look at the summer collection you have to make sure it is still suitable from the year before. A lot can change in that time, such as your body and style, so digging through what you have before the heat wave arrives could save you a lot of heartache. Not to mention that summer clothes are much cheaper when out of season!
Be ruthless with your choices, but do not forget to hold on to anything with sentimental value. Just because you might not wear something anymore does not mean you have to get rid of it! There are plenty of cool things you can do with items of clothing that mean something to you, such as creating blankets made from clothes. This way, you can keep everything you care about and turn it into something that is both functional and inspired!

Wear Clothes That Fit
2023 is the year that labels should no longer have a grip on people. It can be tempting to try and squeeze into clothes over acknowledging a new body shape or size or opt for a baggier cut to hide the body rather than dressing for exactly what you have. Dressing in a way that fits your body well is one of the best things you can do for your style and can take your look to the next level. Forgo looking at the size labels, and start choosing the clothes you like the look of. After that, you can then start to get a better idea about what suits you and fits you well and others that might not be as suitable. The main thing is that it is up to you to decide what you feel comfortable and happy in.
Focus on Quality
Quality over quantity will usually be the best course of action when it comes to clothes. You want pieces that are going to last, hold up after being in the washing machine, and also still look as fresh as the day you got them months later. This is seldom the case for pieces that are made under the fast fashion industry, which is also proving to be harmful to the planet too. Consider creating a capsule wardrobe of quality items instead.
