Mavis’s Reviews > The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing > Status Update

subcategories of clothes to start discarding: tops, bottoms, clothes that should be hung (jackets, coats), socks, underwear, bags, accessories (scarves, belts, hats etc), clothes for specific events (swimsuit, uniforms), shoes

start with clothes, then books, papers, miscellaneous stuff, and lastly, mementos.

we should be choosing what we want to keep, not what we want to get rid of.

discard, then tidy.
