Ever wondered what treasures are hiding in your closet? 🕵️♀️👗
To kick off my no-new-clothes challenge, I decided to give my wardrobe a thorough cleanse. Inspired by Allison Bornstein’s Wear It Well and the KonMari Method I learned working with - I embarked on a journey to define my personal style and find new inspiration with the clothing I already have. Here’s how it’s going:
Step 1: I pulled out all my most-worn and favorite pieces and laid them on my bed. This helped me spot trends in what I consistently reach for. Turns out, I’m all about oversized comfort, classic patterns like leopard and houndstooth, denim, leather, natural fibers, and a mix of bold colors with black and white.
Step 2: Next, I tackled the “nevers”—those items that just don’t get worn. Following Allison’s advice, I didn’t overthink it; if I don’t wear it, it goes in a box, I’ll revisit the Nevers next. Although it’s recommended to do the I’ll process in one go, I’m breaking this into chunks because, well, .
Step 3: With the closet cleared, I vacuumed the drawers and corners, then freshened it up with my favorite All Purpose spray.
Stay tuned to see how the rest of this process unfolds! And guess what? I found something hilarious at the back of my top shelf… Have you ever discovered something amusing or unexpected during a closet clean-out? 👇😂
