To ask when do you get rid of clothes?

I've always thought clothes should only be thrown away if they have holes in.

But it takes a long time for this to happen, which means I have quite a big wardrobe. And then it's hard to justify buying new things. And I would like new things sometimes!

YANBU - only get rid of clothes when holey
YABU - have regular clear outs

Thriftplus is a good system for clothes still in good shape but they won't take supermarket/primark/m and s. I second that www.isecondthat.co.uk/ takes primark etc. At least you get something back and are donating to charity at the same time.

When it's falling apart for me! I'm still wearing hoodies 15 years ago but I don't really buy many clothes, so they all get worn so fairly small collection of clothes but shabby.
If you haven't worn stuff recently I'd donate them to a charity bin or shop.

I love clothes and shopping for them! I also get bored easily
I try and buy mainly classic items and I keep them till they wear out
Other stuff I wear a few times then sell on eBay
My biggest issue is weight fluctuating sadly
