But if you think this is a very difficult task, be aware that follow some steps can make this endeavor lighter and, for sure, the final reward is incredible!
find it out how to make an efficient wardrobe clean and how to decide what to keep and what to pass on.
take some time
With or without a mess, a efficient housekeeping is done calmly. So set aside a day when you are free and willing to start this journey.
As much as it is an activity that takes a little work, leave your laziness aside to take a leisurely look at each of your pieces. This will definitely make you better choices.
separate by categories
Throwing all your pieces on the bed to get clean in the wardrobe can be a big reality check and make you give up early in the process.
So one of the easiest ways to get started is to face the detox in closet by categories. By categorizing (blouses, pants, skirts, jackets, etc) you will be able to evaluate each one of them separately (if there are more pieces of one and almost nothing of the other) and the composition between them (whether they match or not).
try the pieces
This may be one of the steps many people skip or skip, but it’s one of the most important!
It’s no use having a bunch of pieces if they don’t fit, are broken or don’t have to do with your style. That is why, try each of the pieces to get an overview of what you have, the possible combinations and what really should go forward.
Decide what will stay
After categorizing and trying on the pieces, it’s time to decide what will go back into the wardrobe.
And one way to consciously make this selection is choose the pieces that have to do and cater to your personal style and also your current lifestyle, as well as pieces that match each other.
Decide what will come out
If you are one of those people who have difficulty letting go and don’t know how to get rid of clothes, some points can help you in this screening.
Discard worn, unfixable parts, ones that don’t fit (both in size and style), ones that haven’t been used in the last year, ones that are repeated, and ones you don’t even like that much.
