There are many options when it comes to organizing your closet. This is what I've found works for me. I like to organize by color since my clothes are exposed. When you have your clothes from light to dark it's easier to see what you have since the eye naturally goes to dark. Also it helps to see how much of one color you may have too much of.
Making Room For The New
It seems easy enough, but sometimes it can be hard to get rid of old or unused things. Use this rule of thumb... If you haven't wore it in a year then it's time to move on. Donate, sell, throw away, or possibly save them for a Halloween costume in the future. No matter what, it's time to make room for new and improved items.
You'll need space for upcoming shopping trips right?
Closet Week!
For as long as I can remember I've had a day when Spring or Fall comes and I switch out my wardrobe. So it's that time again, time to say goodbye to the fur and hello to the florals! I'm declaring this week, Closet Week! Every day this week I'm going to post a closet tip that works for me.
First and foremost HANGERS! My Mom was the one who made me realize just how important it was to invest in good hangers. The ones that are velvet, "Huggable Hangers", they will hold any piece of clothing without making marks or falling off.
This season I've decided to color code mine. Pink and black are dresses, teal is lingerie, black is everything else... For now.
Find these hangers pretty much anywhere that sells closet accessories. I got mine at Target but have seen them at T.J. Maxx, Burlington, and Macys.
