Detox is trendy. Sure, we are at the start as well * cough *. However, we did not book ourselves into a sinfully expensive hotel somewhere in the middle of nowhere, so that we could be infused with juices for two weeks, which not only purged supposed poisons, but also our good mood. Instead, we make ourselves comfortable with a glass of wine and leftover Christmas cookies in front of the wardrobe at home to finally put an end to the Messi madness, alias the uncontrolled hoarding of textile nonsense. In short: we clear out – but with understanding! After all, in addition to all the fashionable derailments, not as many tears should flow in the end. Because hand on heart: there are simply parts that really – REALLY! – have absolutely nothing to do in the sacred two square meters of our bedroom. That would be …
1. Parts that no longer fit!
Insight can sometimes be a pretty ass – we feel you! But it doesn't help. Even if we plan so often to take a look inside the gym, in which we have been a member for 8,735 years, and to send the bar of chocolate, which is at least one of our staple foods in the evening, to Diet Nirvana – we will never go back the jeans fit that we could squeeze into with ease when we were 20. Only one thing helps: a big sip of wine and out with all the cabinet bodies beyond our current clothing size.
2. Parts with poor quality!
The polyester shirt for five euros may have been the hot shit during our student days, but it really isn't anymore today. After all, there is a reason why parts with poor quality are now living a sad life in the depths of our closet. They don't sit, scratch and smell as soon as our body even thinks of secretion of a sweat droplet. Really now, get rid of it!
3. High heels in which we cannot run!
Yes, high heels are extremely sexy. Not being able to walk in it is unfortunately embarrassing. Paragraphs that ensure that our othopaedist can retire early with a full account have no place in our closet. Also: Kittenheels, mules and loafers are much more popular right now. By the way, we should also say goodbye to shoes that cause blisters or pressure points and therefore hurt ourselves when you look at them. The 185th entry will unfortunately not change anything – #isso!
4. Socks that don't match!
How many individual socks are flying around in your underwear drawer, desperately looking for their counterpart? Of course, we are aware that the dryer is solely to blame for this condition, but it is of no use: The selfish beast in your laundry room will no longer bring out the BFFs of your single socks in this life. So do yourself and the sad creatures in your drawer a favor and dispose of them.
5. Parts that are torn!
We all need so-called gammel clothes, in which we can throw ourselves on the couch after a hard day – but not a full closet, please. Gammelhose and a Gammelshirt are enough to develop our Chi during the evening Netflix bang. Therefore: Any clothes in which we would not even take out the garbage no longer have anything to do with us.
6. Parts that are braver than we are!
The influencers do it – we do it? Not a good idea! Because butter for the fish: What Caro Daur and Co. carry up and down on Instagram usually ends up as a closet body with a centimeter thick layer of dust. So we take a deep breath and separate ourselves from all the parts that would need more than a glass of wine so that we could ever take to the streets in it. Incidentally, this also applies to all parts in which there is still a price tag. What we have not wanted to wear until now will not be worn in the future – sadly, but unfortunately true!
