5 Things You Wish You Could Bin From Your Partner's Wardrobe

We’d just love to take a stab at their wardrobe

The problem with Marie Kondo is that her tidying method is based on you, going through your things. What about when you really, like REALLY, want to go through someone else’s things? Apart from the fact that it’s probably illegal (Trespassing? Stolen property? Invasion of privacy?), we’d just love to take a stab at our partner's wardrobe... So here goes:

Dear love of my life,
Any chance you’d reconsider owning these? Please?

That band T-shirt from 2001
Apart from the fact you’re now over the band, this faded wonder is at least a size too small… Plus, let’s be honest, the last time you properly wore it was back in actual 2001. When Britney was still with Justin. And Jen was all over Brad. See where I’m going with this?

The shirt your ex bought you
We’ve all got history, but keeping the T-shirt your ex bought you on ‘the best holiday ever’ is not a momento we need around. Maybe you could bury it in your drawers with the Christmas jumper your mum made you?

Your favourite cap
Yes, yes we know. It’s got character. And history. It’s been with you at every sporting event and is worn in just-so. But you know what else it has? A smell. Yep, a faintly sweaty, never been washed smell that just won’t go away. Maybe you should treat yo’self to a new one? Heck, I’LL treat you to a new one.

The first suit you owned
You bought this for a wedding, years ago and it shows. The colour and cut are dated and it just doesn’t say ‘I’ve got my finger on the pulse’ quite like sharp new tailoring would.

Those sneakers
Ahhh, the trainers you can’t part with. Those trusty wonders that you ran a marathon in. It’s adorable you’ve kept them but they are now five years old, grey instead of white and give you no support to run in. None whatsoever. Time to go shopping. Perhaps you could busy some new ones, then maybe bury your old ones. Then burn them. And then bury them again.
