Style Angel Wardrobe Secrets…
Are you excited about your wardrobe or do you struggle with what to wear every morning and can special occasions send you in a spin as you don't know what to wear? In today's economy with financial pressures all around you why would you not want to be well-equipped with all the information, tools and tips on what enhances your best features so you shop (and purchase) with confidence knowing you are building a wardrobe that you can mix and match, a wardrobe you get excited about and a wardrobe that helps you get ready in the morning.
Here are the steps to get there!
1. Organise your Wardrobe
This process is known to bring back memories and can be quite emotional. So do this when you are feeling great and inspired! A great idea is to take a photo at this moment and one at the end so you can see the difference.
It may be an idea to have a friend or family member on hand to help you during this process to make tough decisions, to get a second opinion, to relive the moments and perhaps to hand you a tissue if you are finally saying goodbye to certain items.
Make sure that you have plenty of time to do this job as you may want to try a few items on. Have a glass of water at hand as this is quite an intense and dusty process.
It is a great idea to wear your best supporting lingerie, do your hair and make up for when you try things on.
Be prepared to take everything out of your wardrobe so perhaps clear your bed so you can put a few things on. If you have a mobile clothing rack even better.
It would be advisable to sort things out per type of garments i.e assess all your pants first then all your skirts and dresses. Then move on to Shirts/Blouses and Tops followed by Jackets, Jumpers and Vests. Next are Jewellery, scarfs, belts, hosiery, shoes and handbags.
Start three piles:
1. KEEPERS Pile of Items to Keep, sort these by Garment Category (pants, skirts, shirts etc) on your bed or clothing rack.
• Those that require no alterations to fit or proportion.
• Those that are in harmony with your personality.
• Those that are comfortable to wear and fit well.
• Those that flatter your figure and make you feel good.
• Those that are in good condition and repair.
2. MAYBES Pile Items that Need Attention
(make sure you putting your $ in the right direction, no need to spend money on a piece of clothing that will then remain in the wardrobe and not get worn!)
3. GIVEAWAYS & THROW AWAYS Items That Need to be Given Away or Discarded (please sort these in separate piles)
It would be great to have a few large heavy duty plastic bags ready for things you would like to discard.
2. Set a Time to Go Purpose Shopping
Now you have a real picture of your wardrobe set some time aside to find the Gaps in your wardrobe.
