If you’re anything like most people, then your clothes, new and old, are relatively well jumbled together in your wardrobe, drawers and storage boxes. You may have a collection of shoes spilling out of your shoe holder, and have to fight with that mountain every morning. You may have collected quite a few accessories and realise that you have to chart your way through those depths before adding a little spice to your outfit.
Over time, it can be nice to organise your wardrobe and accessories better, really getting to the heart of what you’d actually like to wear, what is most appealing to you, and what you can do with the clothes you’re no longer interested in wearing. As such, spring cleaning can also be helped by curating our wardrobe.
This, of course, gives us the chance to try out better a range of outfits we have to wear and develop new combinations we can feel confident wearing. Let’s see how we get there:
Categorising Clothes
Categorising your clothes can be a great use of your time. Instead of hanging up all your shirts together, for instance, you might decide to opt for putting the professional and personal attire you have in different categories, folding them in different areas, stacking them in different drawers, or even pre-portioning outfits you know you want to wear. No matter how you choose to work (this kind of organization is often highly personal), spending some time categorising, if only by colour, can make finding something to wear in the morning that much easier (and more fun!)
Restoring Your Wardrobe
It’s good to restore your wardrobe or set of drawers. Because these furniture pieces are not only utilities but statement pieces, they may be in your room for years. It can be nice to reupholster them from time to time, even if that means giving said wardrobe a pain or stencilling patterns onto it. Restoring your wardrobe might involve re-installing a hanging bracket, fixing the broken underside of the pull out drawers, or simply, making sure it’s stuffed with less stored items by checking through your possessions and considering what you really need to keep hold of.
Beautiful Holders
Beautiful holders to display your fashionable possessions can be a wonderful idea and can add a little spice to your morning dressing ritual. For instance, having your Jacob Mercari diamonds kept in a beautiful and locked display case can keep them safe, allowing the act of opening this display and wearing your beautiful jewellery for a special event to feel thoroughly special, as it is. It might be that you use a little hand statue for your watches and rings, or perhaps an easier makeup holder to categorise access to those elements better when preparing yourself for the day. This kind of effort adds something special when waking up each morning.
With this advice, we hope you can better organise your wardrobe and accessories as appropriate to you.
