So, if your life is not what you wanted you can at least take control how you look! After all, YOU are the one who buys your clothes!!
Here are 5 tips to think about when you go shopping so that you can turn your wardrobe into one that includes stylish clothes you love!
Does your closet have too many clothes in it?
There is a reality show out these days called Hoarders, that I (JoJami) was watching the other night. (If you haven’t seen it, the title says it all…) It is a shocking show, and it’s just unbelievable how hard it is for these people to have to “let go” of what we would consider “junk”.
My husband and I were chatting about it and then he joked, ” You know, you’re doing a little bit of hoarding upstairs in your closet”! Well, after being horrified at the thought that it might be true, that statement sure got me thinking….! That night as I stared at my nice neat closet of clothes I thought, “Oh my goodness, I really do have too many clothes!”
It’s a common fact that most women actually only wear 20% of what is in their closet. Why do we keep all those items that we really don’t wear?
What ends up happening is that we end up wearing the first thing we see when we open the closet- usually something really average. We totally forget about some of the wonderful gems that might be hiding behind those old, boring clothes.
As a matter of fact just this past weekend, I needed to throw on something to garden in. I pulled out an old pair of sweat pants an old tacky t-shirt and went out digging. Wouldn’t you know it, an hour latter, an old friend, just “popped” over for a visit. Boy was I feeling like a frump! The next day, when it was time to dress for more outdoor work, I put on different pair of shorts and a coordinating t-shirt. No reason to dress poorly, when I HAVE the clothes in my closet! Of course, no one showed up for a surprise visit that day, but if they had, I would have looked a lot better! (Meanwhile, I have tossed the day 1 outfit in the give away bag…no need to keep clothes that make you feel dumpy!)
Moreover, I had a client recently that had a closet full of clothes that she has kept for almost 20 years. She had some wonderful classic items that we kept, however, we must have gotten rid of almost 1/2 the clothes in her closet!
She wrote me recently to say how much easier it was for her to get dressed these days with all those outdated things gone!
This weeks Blogging Boomers #154 has a wonderful article on why it can feel so good to purge our home of the extra items that we don’t need or use! Hosted by The Boomer Chronicles you can read about this and other topics that are Boomer related!
If you need some help getting inspired to get mean and clean, check out our DVD, The Ultimate Cure for the Dysfunctional Closet!
This will put the fun into getting your closet organized.
