Organizing Tips for your Wardrobe:
- Take everything out of your closet and place
it in piles in your staging area.
- Have a bin, basket or pile for each category
of clothing you have: sweaters, t-shirts, workout clothes,
shirts, blouses, shorts, slacks, coats, suits, etc. Pile them each
separately.
- Now that everything is OUT of your closet,
dust the shelves, sweep the floors, wipe the hanger bar and hooks and repair
what needs to be repaired.
- Next, put back only what you love, what fits
now, and what makes an ensemble (outfit).
- Next, if you have an entire wardrobe of a
different size, put that all together so when you are that size you'll know
where they are. We'll deal with that in a bit.
Great start!
- Next: you'll probably
have things left in the "staging" area that
don't form a great ensemble, but that you LOVE. For
instance a blouse that really doesn't go with anything you currently have
and you put it on and take it off every time. What do you do? Make a bin of those items you try on over and over
but never wear. There'll be shoes like this too. Set the bin or basket
aside for right now.
- Put
all the things you LOVE back in your closet today, you can organize them by
blouses, skirts, trousers, pants, jackets, etc. or by color, but you
choose.
Here
are some options:
Call the store where you usually shop and ask to see if a sales associate
would come to your house and help you match up the mismatched but wonderful
items. Together you'll match the outfits
in your wardrobe, make a list of what you need to wear with what, what shoes and
accessories to keep and then you'll be 'TO-GETHER'!
Take a photo of each item and print it out; take this with you when you go
shopping so that you know what you need to match up. Make a list of the
things that you need and carry that with you also so that you can start
wearing these great things.
Donate them, give them to someone who would wear them.
Actually
matching the outfits as though you were dressing a mannequin, will help you
actually wear the clothes you buy. It's also a great tip on how to pack
your suitcase for a trip.
Coming
soon: we'll begin to look at how to Feng Shui your wardrobe to get the most out
of your daily life!
All
my best,
