Those Too-Tight Jeans
The Big Baubles
Minimal jewelry is here to stay — the thinner the strand, the better. Gather your super bright, inexpensive costume jewelry of yesteryear and offer it to your kids’ dress-up bin. They’ll be overjoyed, and you’ll free up some precious storage space.

Those Wobbly Heels
They look great in photos and sit pretty on your shelf, but those sky-high heels have a habit of making you tumble over, each and every time you wear them. Find a more suitable replacement that promises comfort and class, then bid those babies adieu.

That Itchy Wool Sweater
Sure, sweaters are all the rage this season. But if you’re holding on to anything that calls for tugging and twitching, we both know you’ll never be reaching for it. Donate it now while it’s still chilly outside, and vow never to purchase clearance wool again.

The Worn-Out Leggings
Thin, worn-at-the-seams leggings are the quickest way to an unhappy closet, especially when you’re wearing them daily — from downward dog to the carpool lane. Replace those basic standbys with a new pair and namaste your way to a comfy (and classy) routine.

That Wrinkles-If-You-Look-At-It Top
You might love it, but if any piece calls for an intense ironing job, we both know you’ll never grab it on your way out the door. Ditch it, then search for a wrinkle-free alternative next time you’re at the mall.
