#1 – START WITH YOUR CLOSET & THIS IS WHY
Your closet is ๐ to your life โ you go in it every single day ๐,” says Marsha Sims, founder of Sort-It-Out. “If your closet is messy, it means you’re running๐๐ฝโโ๏ธ through your day & you’re not ๐ซ taking care of all the little things ๐คน๐ฝโโ๏ธ”
As a personal brand stylist ๐ฉ๐ฝโ๐ผ, I suggest taking time to touch โ๐ฝ EVERYTHING in your closet; then ask yourself ๐ค “Do I love it?” ๐๐ฝ๐๐ฝ
If you don’t love it ๐, Why do you have itโ๏ธ Why is it taking up spaceโ๏ธ If it doesn’t make you look gorgeous ๐ธ๐ฝ๐คด๐ฝ or it’s not comfortable ๐ฅต
WHY IS IT IN YOUR CLOSETโ๏ธ
WHAT GOES WHERE?
Take time to go through EVERY drawer๐, shelf โ storage container ๐ฆ Next, examine ๐ต๐ฝโโ๏ธ the wall space in your closet before deciding ๐ where you want things to go. Maximize by utilizing unthought ๐ต of space like the back of your closet door ๐คฏ
Before you plan ๐ what goes where, consider incorporating your style & personality ๐ฆน๐ฝโโ๏ธ๐ฆน๐ฝโโ๏ธ to your wardrobe storage system ๐ SUGGESTIONS โฌ๏ธ
- Are you a wooden ๐ณ or felt ๐ hanger personโ
- Knitwear ๐งถ NEVER hangs, so how are you going to store themโ
