The First Step to Cleaning Out Your Closet

Ohhhhh, the emotions that surround clothing. This alone makes it one of the hardest things to completely clean out, detach from and minimize.

The first step before doing absolutely ANYTHING in your closet is to be completely honest with yourself.

Sit in your closet, and take a few minutes to consider the following:

👗 You are trying to be your BEST self
👖 IT DOESN’T MATTER what size you are
👕 Your clothing should FIT you properly
🛍️ Wear what you LOVE and what makes you feel good
👒 Emphasize the parts of your body that you LOVE
👟 Clothing can be sentimental, BUT, that doesn’t mean everything should stay
👜 LET GO of anything that you associate with bad feelings or negativity

While clothing is a positive form of self expression and style, it can also be frustrating, depressing, and mask emotions. When we’re honest with ourselves, dress for the stage of life we’re in, AND in what fits us and what feels comfortable, the closet stops becoming a battlefield and instead becomes exciting, easy and efficient.

​Everyone knows the feeling of stepping into their closet and saying, “I have nothing to wear.” So many women also shop for new clothes (because we “have nothing to wear”) every few months. Save time, save money, and save your sanity. Are you ready to clean out your closet?
