SO much fun last night! Thanks to all who came out for the Long, Hot Summer Sale! We had a blast with you all! Pictures to come tomorrow ;)
Yesterday I gave you your
summer staple items for your closet! I mentioned I had a huge closet clean out on Wednesday! It consisted of me, a trash bag, 3 closets and two cups of coffee! I realized I might have a problem. My name is Danielle and I am a shop-a-holic! lol ;)
I finally had the time to take a day and get my closet functional. It's important to have a closet that you can see everything you have. When things are crammed in the corner and hard to see what you own it makes getting dressed a hassle! I suggest at the end of each season you go through and get rid of the things you don't wear. My Rule : If you haven't worn it in a year, you probably won't wear it in the next!
Here's how I conquered my closet clutter! Don't judge....it's a mess. I know. :) lol Kind of embarrassing but 100% real. :) lol
 |
| Room #1 - I took over my brother's room at my parents which is now a walk in closet with a mattress! Hahaha! |
 |
| Room #2 - The guest bedroom at my parents house closet is where most of my clothes are. |
 |
| Room #3 - The back room at Matt's house where my stuff is and my closet there. |
Tips & advice on closet cleaning.
* Make sure the clothes you keep are comfortable, fit, and are flattering.
*Take inventory & downsize. There's no reason to have 7 pairs of dark skinny jeans! Keep your favorite pair that are in good condition, fit perfectly and that are still current.
*Get slimline hangers to make the most of your space.
* Use boxes, dividers or shelving to stay organized and protect your things.
* Focus on what you wear most and keep those things visible & easily accessible.
* Know what you need. If you notice you have a ton of tanks but no blouses, keep that in mind so next time you shop you shop for something that's missing from your closet instead of adding to the masses.
* Keep track of what your looking for. I keep a running list on my notes in my iPhone.
ALL CLEANED AND ORGANIZED!!!!
