How To Color Coordinate Your Closet

 There are a few steps you can take to color coordinate your closet:

1. Start by taking everything out of your closet and sorting it by color. This will give you a clear picture of what you have and how the colors are distributed.
2. Once you have everything sorted by color, start by organizing the items in your closet by color group. You can use color-coded hangers, shelf dividers or bins to keep each color group together.
3. For hanging clothes, place all of the tops together, like all the red t-shirts together, then blue t-shirts together. Same goes for pants, skirts, dresses and so on.
4. If you have a lot of shoes, you can organize them by color as well. You can use clear shoe boxes, and label them with the color or attach a colored piece of tape to the box so you can easily see what's inside.
5. If you have a lot of bags, scarfs, or other accessories, you can also organize these by color. This can help you see everything you have and make it easier to coordinate your outfits.
6. Once you have everything organized by color, take a step back and assess the overall aesthetic of the closet. You can adjust or tweak your organization as needed.
7. Finally, maintain the organization you have made, periodically going through your clothes and getting rid of what you don't wear or that are stained, also put back the clothes that have gotten displaced.

By color coordinating your closet, you'll be able to see what you have, and it will make it easier to find what you're looking for and to coordinate your outfits. It also has the added benefit of making your closet look neater, more visually appealing and with a more cohesive aesthetic.
