Evaluate and Remove the Clothing That No Longer Works
Facing the closet seems like facing the giants
Springtime is always when the spring cleaning bug begins to stir us into action for cleaning the house and closets. Most seem to avoid the closet until the last thing that needs to be done because of this simple reason—not knowing what to keep and what to find a new home. Closet cleaning is for any time of year and not just in the spring. It especially is for before you are looking for a new job.
How to navigate the keep-not keep debate
In helping people for years with this keep-not keep debate, my experience is that the discussion got started when some clerk at a store talked you into something that was not your best. The majority of the people who have shopped have done the same thing.
• You brought it home and hung it in the closet
• It has stayed there, maybe even with the price tag still on it
• You are not alone.
Nothing to wear
That is what gives you the feeling that you do not have anything to wear. That is true. The styles are a mixture. The fits vary, and the clothing does not go well together with other items you have in the closet. I call that a hanging wardrobe rather than a working wardrobe.
Handle the closet intruders that do not fit
Well, now it is a perfect time when the cleaning bug has us stirred to action to remove the closet intruders, those clothing items that:
• do not fit
• you do not ever wear
• need repairs you do not want to do
An online styling portfolio for men and women shows the exact style assortment for you based on your body type, size, shape, and lifestyle—extraordinary and accurate right from home. At last, a tool to help you see what to keep and what to find new homes for, whether that is re-sale shop, donation, or trash. Use the internet and browse for wardrobe planners or personal shoppers. If someone at a local store provides that service, you can get help from them too.
The hanger on-ers need to go, and this is an excellent time to start weeding them out. Facing the closet often seems like facing the giants, but you can do it.
Spring cleaning (at any time of year) can give you the extra push to evaluate and remove the clothing that no longer works for you.
Nothing is more refreshing that to have the clothing and accessories that really do work and that are in good repair. Visit the product page to find out more about your personal fashion formula.
