Decluttering clothes is probably one of the trickiest jobs when it comes to clearing out your home, as there's a lot of sentiment tied up in your closet.
"[It] can feel pretty overwhelming because it's not just about tossing out stuff you don't wear anymore," says Di Ter Avest, a home and lifestyle professional organizer. "Often, it makes you realize that a lot of what you're holding onto belongs to a past version of yourself. Your style might have changed, or your lifestyle might be different now, and those clothes are just taking up space. Letting go of pieces that were once a big part of your life isn't easy, but making room for what fits your current body and needs is so worth it."
