Is your wardrobe a hoarding place for all sorts of clothes you’ve accumulated over the years?
Then it's time to do something about that! Your wardrobe should be an investment in yourself. We all know it: If you feel good in your clothes you will feel more confident.
So treat your wardrobe with the same respect with which you want to be treated.
The first step on your journey to a better wardrobe is sitting down and planning out your ideal wardrobe. As with anything, planning is half the game. So set aside a few hours for yourself, grab a pen and paper, and let's get started.
Outlined below, you will find the 11 steps involved in planning your ideal wardrobe.
This step is about analysing what kind of clothes you will need all year round and determining what fits your lifestyle.
The eye likes balance. So here we will discuss what types of clothing can help you balance out your silhouette.
In this step, we will explore your personal fashion style a little bit more, and how you can develop your own signature style.
To develop a proper concept for your wardrobe, you will need a personal colour palette to ensure that all of your clothes mix and match well.
If you have never considered what your clothes are made of, this is the time to find out.
Planning out which patterns and/or prints you will incorporate into your wardrobe is important to ensure that they fit in well with the rest of your wardrobe.
In this step, we will build the core of your wardrobe - your all-year round basics. These are the items you will reach for the most.
Here, we will add garments that you need for your "occasions". Not your everyday clothes, but you will need some of these.
Even though they are at the bottom of an outfit, shoes are an important part of your overall appearance. So don't neglect this step.
Just like clothes, accessories can be strategically used to balance out your silhouette - the most important item being your handbag.
Lastly, we need to add seasonal clothing to your wardrobe. These are items that will be swapped out and put into storage for next year once they are no longer needed.
