It's Time to Wardrobe Edit

For a while I had a habit of doing an intense clear out of my wardrobe, and then a few months later I'd be looking for a top or pair of shoes to wear out and remember I gave them all to charity!
But this isn't a time to despair and moan! We need to create our dream wardrobe, you know, the one that works for you not against you.
So first things first, let's get out the check list:
Outerwear Footwear
Jacket Sandals
Blazer Flat/heels shoes
Cardigan Boots
Coat Trainers/plimsolls
Top Accessories
T-shirt Earrings
Shirt Chain
Blouse Watch
Dress Cross body/Handbag
Bottom
Trousers
Skirt
Jeans
Leggings
As long as you have these, your basics are covered!
Next
Colours and patterns. Don't be afraid to experiment! Colours and patterns can be your friend, especially in key items of your outfit. E.g. denims teamed with patterned top and leather jacket, or dark suit with a coloured/block colour top - just as a side note top can be whatever you fancy their is no hard and fast rule... be creative!
Outfits
How you arrange your wardrobe is up to you, I found that sorting clothes in to categories of Trousers/Jeans/Skirts/Dresses/Blouse/Shirt/ etc and then colour coding from light to dark helps me to first; see what I've got and second make an effective plan. So I can base a whole out fit just on one key item I want to wear. Another idea that works is to create outfits, take a pic of the outfit and stick it either in a mini photo album of ideas or the inside of your wardrobe. Dressing up should be fun not taxing!
Finally
Enjoy it! There's nothing like a day of outfit sorting and wardrobe editing especially when done with friends!
Yours, Kookie x
