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.

Decluttering and Organizing Your Clothing

When it comes to clothing, most of us have far more than we really need. If you take a good, honest look through your closet, you will find that you have much more than you use. In fact, most people wear only a small percentage of their clothing over and over, and neglect the rest.

Why You Should Declutter Clothing

Having too much of anything takes up not only physical space in your home, but mental space as well. When you are looking for something to wear, having too much clothing makes you feel like you are searching through endless piles of stuff and yet still cannot find something suitable. When you declutter, you will be able to quickly find outfits that you love. This will save you time, and keep your stress levels low.

How Does It Make You Feel and Look?

As you are sorting through your clothing, think about how the item makes you feel. Do you look at it and feel excited to wear it? When it is on your body, does it make you feel and appear attractive and ready to take on the world?

Clothing is much more than a cover. It is a part of who you are, and how you feel in it is the image of yourself that you are presenting to the world. You may decide to keep only the clothing that makes you feel confident, and causes you to be proud of who you are.

Are You Keeping It Out of Obligation?

Many of us are harbouring clothing out of guilt, given to us by well-meaning friends and family. Unless someone knows your taste 100% of the time, clothing generally does not make an appropriate gift. Too often we are given an item and then feel stuck with it for an undisclosed amount of time, and we never quite feel right getting rid of it.

Have You Worn It in the Past Year?

A rule of thumb is that anything not worn in the past year or more, you may possibly decide to sell or donate. The reason for the rule of a year is because certain items of clothing and accessories have particular yearly events that they are appropriate for, and you will likely want to keep some of those special items.

Also, many locations have seasons that are very distinct in temperature. You will have clothing that you don’t ever wear in summer, but faithfully make use of every winter… or vice versa. If you didn’t wear it in the past year’s appropriate season, it may be likely that this item is no longer needed, or that it no longer flatters who you have become.

Once you have made choices about what to get rid of, you may decide to discard any damaged items, sell a few select items and donate the rest to those in need. Organize what is left, and you will see what a difference it makes in your life when you have in your closet only what you need and love wearing. Enjoy your new organized closet and never search for hours for a lost item again.

If you are keeping clothing you hate just because you feel loyal to the person who gave it to you, go ahead and get rid of it. This will make room for items you love, and you won’t feel guilt every time you glance at it, knowing that it hasn’t been worn and will probably never be.

A good rule of thumb is that anything not worn in the past year you may decide to let go. The reason for the rule of a year is because certain items of clothing and accessories have particular yearly events that they are appropriate for, and it’s ok to keep a few of those special items.

Once you have made choices about what to get rid of, you can throw away any damaged items, sell a few select items and give away the rest to those in need.
