How To Edit Your Wardrobe
Hey friends!Hope everyone is staying safe, well, and holding on to the faith during this difficult time that we are facing together as a world.Praying that we are all healthy, at home, and with more time than usual to focus on our home surroundings. We are big believers at LSK that our homes should be our havens. Having a haven to call home is especially important during a stressful time like this. Our surroundings impact our moods, so having a decluttered, peaceful place to call home can really give your mind the much-needed peace and space to think and process.
Today we want to talk about your closet! Below are a few tips to tackle your wardrobe and introduce a remix of sorts. Let's make your wardrobe a peaceful place of only things that you love; the items you gravitate toward on repeat! Keep reading for our guide for a simple and successful wardrobe edit.
WARDROBE EDIT 101.
- Go section by section, working on one category at a time. Scroll through jeans, for example, skipping the ones you know you love. Those are a must-keep!
-Any questionable candidates? Take them out and try on. If they are 100% comfortable and confident-boosting, they are to go!
-Either donate or consign the items that no longer work for you, so they are available to someone who will love them!
-Do this for every category of clothing and accessories...tops, jackets, shoes, and so on. We promise, it is liberating!
-Your closet should be a capsule of clothes you love! Read below for our checklist of qualities that "loved" items should entail:
THE LOVE LIST
-Comfortable
-Confident-boosting
-Versatile
-Good quality
-Fits with your current style aesthetic
-Something you would buy again today
-Looks like you
-Makes you smile
Not too hard, right? We promise that this time spent will be well worth-it! A edited wardrobe is a happy wardrobe. Have fun with it! xo
Home Sort: Closet Edition
For those of you that know me know that organization is the key to my heart; the Container Store was my second home when we were moving into ours, label makers are dreamy, glass pantry containers are way better than packages, and organized closets and cabinets and drawers are top priority. #sos! All of that to say, when Home Sort reached out and wanted to ultra-organize my closet, I was all in and legitimately was counting down the days until the transformation. There was something about my closet that I couldn't get fully right, so I knew their magical touch was all it was going to take!First of all, the Home Sort sisters, Ryan and Brandie, felt like immediate friends when they walked in the door. They have the most contagious joy and they are just so much FUN. I love their love for people and organizing and serving others through their job. It is truly refreshing + they get the job done! I was so blown away when I walked into my closet that I held back tears (insert laughing emoji).All of that to say, all Californians, call them ASAP. They are mastermind organizers and will exceed your expectations! I also love that if you are on a budget, you can pay for their master plan, and you do the work for such an affordable flat fee.
