Do you hang on to clothes that no longer fit?

It all depends on what it is and what kind of condition it is in for me. I have some brand new clothes that have never been worn. I grew out of them some years ago. I really like them though and do not want to part with them in hopes to wear them some day.

I need to clean my closet and throw old clothes.

I saved some clothes thinking I would lose weight, and I did. Some I hadn't worn for years.

I felt like my waist was getting thinner, and I had to take down some of my clothes.

I wish my waist was getting thinner. It feels like it sometimes but it isn't.

I tend to wear out my clothes pretty easily. I typically get several years out of most things.

I have done things like that too. Hate it when I like something and it doesn't fit me though.

I usually pile them inside my closet until it becomes bulky and can no longer close. I decided to put them to another bag until I will give them to people who wanted them.

I would put them in a box which I can find the use for them later on. Whether donating or use them for my cats.

That is a good idea too.

It depends... I had some clothes I loved, but when they started falling off I had to donate them to charity. I don't intend gaining weight again. On the other hand I had a summer dress I loved which I have had for 20 years. I got too big for it and wasn't able to wear it for a long time and almost gave it to my daughter, but last summer I found I could fit into it again which was great!

That is awesome. I hope to wear some of mine again some day.
