For a fashion girl, there is probably nothing more fun than updating her wardrobe. But elating as every unbridled shopping spree is, it may come with a few setbacks. One is the challenge of fitting your new loot into your wardrobe.

Admit it. Some of the items in your closet are there only for sentimental reasons. Never mind if the pair of exaggeratedly flared pants you pleaded your Mom for 10 Christmases ago just sat in your closet collecting dust. Why, simply looking at it brings proud tears to your eyes, as you are reminded of how far your fashionista self has gone. Plus, it makes your closet look fuller, so why not?

But getting rid of items that you don’t use anymore can signal the beginning of a more organized lifestyle. Letting some of your closet clutter go can actually help you save time, space, and even your sanity. Start organizing your wardrobe and your life by taking this short quiz:



Now that you’ve sifted through your closet and freed some valuable space, next comes the ultimate hurdle: the shopping budget. Don’t fret. Remember the items you have chosen to toss? Don’t get rid of them just yet. You can make some moolah out of those by putting them up for sale.

There are thrift shops that may accept your old clothes for some cash. Note that they determine the price of your items according to the style and condition of each. If you have discarded quite a number of items, you may consider setting up an online store. There are also online marketplaces where you can put up your used clothes for sale, without having to pay for anything.

Some of us may feel apprehensive about letting our designer bags and shoes go. If this is the case, you may pawn them instead. PawnHero, the first online pawnshop in Southeast Asia, offers a unique pawning experience as they accept a wide variety of items traditional pawnshops normally don’t. The pawning can also be done in the comfort of your own home—all you need to do is take a photo of your item and send it to them for appraisal.
