How to Increase Closet Organization in 5 Easy Steps: Step 5- Outfit Pictures
A lot of the steps we talked about this week for Operation Clean Closet not only help organize your closet, but also end up saving a lot of time getting dressed. One of my favorite time savers- and one way to avoid the mid-morning bathroom mirror surprise where you glance at your reflection and wonder “What was I thinking?!” in your outfit choice- is to use outfit pictures.
Around the time I flip my closet each season, I also put together outfits and take pictures so that I end up with a stack of photos I keep on my dresser in my closet. I include the “meat” of my outfit- top, pants, and jacket/sweater- and also include shoes and accessories. If I am feeling extra creative, I will also throw in a handbag for a complete look.
Any morning I feel uninspired- or am simply just too tired to put something together- I take a look at my photo stash and I have an instant outfit choice.
I especially love to do this when I purchase new items. Working new items in with my current wardrobe breathes new life into my closet and reassures that the purchase I made is a good addition to my existing threads.
Now that you see how easy it can be to organize your closet in a jiffy, I challenge you to incorporate at least one of the items from the list into your closet this long holiday weekend :).
Have a great long weekend and thank you for stopping by!
I desperately need to do this, my closet is literally OUT OF CONTROL right now, it’s actually really depressing
Just start with one of the steps! I think it’s harder to actually get started and once you do, you realize how helpful it is :).
This is a great idea. It gives you breathing time to create interesting combinations.
Exactly! You feel less pressured with time when you aren’t trying to put together outfits in the early morning.
Cute 🙂
Thank you! 🙂
