I cleaned up more than 100 items from my closet, to ask this question 1

View as slideshow Tips For Cleaning Out Your Wardrobe

They would never, to the organization and evaluation know customers closets for a living, let alone write books on the subject , if you saw the state of my closet last week. Standing in my closet last Sunday, while desperately trying to find some clothes for brunch led to the conclusion that my closet was a double life leads. Not that he was a "Hot Mess", says the organization. He was clear, however, that all it my previous life, a different life than the one I saw represented. A full closet with four-inch heels and designer clothes hanging in countless samples revenue (read: I worked at Neiman Marcus business for nearly a decade and everyone around Dallas drives) a smooth transition in the area was not to do Bay.

So I made ​​another cup of coffee, I turned on my "Overhaul Closet" Spotify playlist, and I did it for my own wardrobe I have done hundreds of times for customers in the past.

I took the first suspension and asked Cabinet million works like a charm every time I have to do, or assist a client in deciding what stays and what goes. Two hours and several hangers later I had stacked ready to donate more than 100 items in a rack storage. Cue: Micro case - and it all started with this. , ,

Sounds simple enough right? Don't be fooled: this question is powerful if you answer honestly. Here are two ways you can tell if an item hanging in your closet serves you: 1. Does it make you feel good when you wear it? Or, are you excited to wear it? Lukewarm reactions are exactly what you don't want here. Let it go. Try it on if you need to, and, even better, have an honest friend (the one you always bring into the fitting room with you) there to give you honest feedback when you get stuck. 2. Do you actually wear the item in question? When is the last time you wore it? If it's just taking up space and you can't remember the last time you put it on (if ever), it's time to part ways. Anything with tags still hanging on it, dust collecting on its shoulders, or waiting in the "way back" because you swear you will lose those extra five kilos is what I'm referring to here. If it falls into those categories, it serves no purpose. Let it go.

It sounds pretty simple, right? Do not be fooled: it is powerful if you answer truthfully.

Here are two ways you can tell when an object hanging in your closet that served:

1. Do you have a good feeling when you wear it? Or are you happy to wear it? Lukewarm reactions are exactly what you do not want to have here. Releasing. Try it when you need, and even better to have an honest friend (the one who always put you in the dressing room with you), there to give honest feedback if you get stuck.

2. Do you have to get the item? When is the last time you used? If there is only room and can not remember the last time when it on (if at all), it's time to separate. Some with tags still hanging over him, gathering dust on his shoulders, or wait in the "return", because I swear I'm going to lose those kilos plus five is what I mean. If you fall into this category, it is useless. Releasing.

Case in point: check out my shoe situation. Note the number of heels in there. I can safely say my shoe collection is 90:10, heels to flats. Read: not San Francisco-friendly.

If you start freaking out about letting go of something, do this: hang the items in question on the front of your closet. Get a sticky note (I use these hang-tags so nothing falls off) and pick a date four weeks out.

If you panic, some start to decline, no: the products in question depend in front of your closet. Get a sticky note (I use these labels fall obsessions) and choose an appointment four weeks.

8.7

Hang a tag on each item. If you don't wear that item between now and that date at least once, I can safely say you won't wear it at all within the next year. Translation: that item no longer serves you and it is time to let it go. If you do wear it now that you can see it (which is sometimes half the battle), once or even twice, and feel good wearing it, then the item stays. When you remove the clutter, you can start to see what you have. You'd be amazed at how many outfits you can make with fewer items hanging in your closet. After I help my clients remove clutter from their closets, they tend to look at the donation pile (mountain) and then back at me with fear in their eyes. They're seeing only what they're getting rid of, not what they are gaining. This is the perfect time for my favourite part of the entire process, when I go back into their streamlined closet and create 20 new looks they never saw before using less clothing than they originally had. These outfits were there all the time; they just couldn't see them. Now, imagine the pieces hiding in your closet. It just takes asking one question to find out . . .

Hang a tag on each item. If you do not this here at this time at least once, I can say that I did not used in the coming year. Translation: this item is not working and it is time to let go. If you wear now that you can see (which is sometimes half the battle), once or twice, and it feels good wearing, then the question remains.

By removing the clutter, you can begin to see what you have. You will be surprised how much a smaller number of elements depend are equipped in your closet.

Then I help my clients to eliminate clutter their closets, they tend to be on the stack of donation (mountain) and then back to see me with fear in her eyes. They see only what they get rid of, not what they deserve. This is the perfect for my favorite part of the entire process, if you go back in your closet and create never seen before less clothing than they were at the point of origin. 20 new streamlined appearance These teams were all the time; could not see them easily.

Now imagine the parts that are hidden in your closet. It takes just ask to know. , ,
