Who ever said you can never have too many clothes was lying to you.

I've spent months growing my hair, following beauty regimes, hording wedding magazines and shopping for bridesmaid dresses, suits and my own wedding attire, consequently certain aspects of my life have been a little neglected.  Namely my regular wardrobe, after all that wedding mayhem and honeymoon organisation, my clothes storage resembles a jumble sale!!  So today i have decided to take the bull by the horns and sort it out.

But i think i've bitten off a little more than i can chew.

I never realised i have SO MANY clothes.  They're everywhere!  How on earth the other half puts up with it i don't know.  I'm attempting to be decisive and ruthless, but i get the feeling the chest of drawers in the spare bedroom will still be chocka with things i "might want one day" - you know if i decide to form a Spice Girls tribute band or something. 

But even if i just manage to get my wardrobe in order that will be a start.  The trouble is with the weather in England, you need clothes for all seasons.  However i have about 50 outfits for each season :( eeeek.

I blame Primark.  Since the advent of cheap clothing its possible to buy several "something new"s each and every weekend.  I don't though.  Honest. Just occasionally - but even so it soon mounts up.  And what am i left with, a honking pile of clothes that still fit, but have either seen better days or i just don't like them anymore.

If i could find my camera (ha - in all this chaos chance would be a fine thing) i would take a picture of the explosive products of the clothing volcano that is my 3meters wide ikea wardrobe!

Tell me ladies, how do you manage a clothing overhaul?  I'm in serious need of advice.
