I also listed a whole ton of clothes on a resale site yesterday and picked out even more today, which I'll do later. Getting proactive on clearing out some room! Mostly because we had this old temporary fabric and pole wardrobe which had been leaning really badly for over a year so I couldn't walk down to my side of the bed past it properly anymore. I eventually got so mad with it (after first tying it up with a rope and securing that to a doorjamb - proper DIY craft project haha - but after about 9 months or so the rope wore through and snapped) that I tore it down rofl. Then we're now using another temporary clothes rail that I had originally bought for when I was showing my stuff at craft fairs. But that one started leaning last night with all the weight, so I was like nope, I need to get rid of a ton of stuff before it keels over because I'm NOT having my passage blocked again.

It was fine this time. Sometimes I find it difficult to figure out what to get rid of but I was in a harsh mood haha, so I was just grabbing stuff and putting it in the pile without thinking twice. Mostly just stuff I haven't worn in a few years. I tend to hang on to stuff but when it hasn't fit me for that whole time I had to ask myself whether I would even bother wearing it even if it did fit me again later.

For me it depends a lot on mood, too. Harsh mood is the most productive for decluttering ;) Sometimes I just hang onto stuff for no good reason, because it was a favourite once and "I can still wear it around the house even if it's a bit shabby by now" and the like... Sometimes I'm happy about this habit as well, though - I had a lot of clothes that had gotten too small for me over the years but that I just couldn't let go of and now after loosing weight they all fit again and I'm happy to have kept them. Some of my newer things are too big for me now, though -.- Fortunately, I can try giving things that are too big for me to my mom or my sis, since their sizes are similar to what mine used to be. And I get to try all the stuff that they can't fit themselves into anymore :D
Generally, putting things on a "show mom/sis"-pile is my cheat to decluttering - because it doesn't feel like throwing the things out that way and then I can just give the pile to them and say "keep what you want and throw out the rest" so I never actively decide that it's being thrown out :D

Haha that's a good way to trick your mind! I have a lot of old favourites hanging around too. And sometimes it's a convenience thing. I found some stuff at the back of my drawer that I completely forgot I had, just because it's always easier to grab stuff from the front of the drawer and never bother trying to organise the back of it :'D It was getting full though so that pushed me to empty out a few things.

That would make sense. I don't really do seasonal changes though, I just wear a jumper over the top of my summer shirts in the winter XD

a halterneck is where the string goes around your neck, rather than over your shoulders.
