Hello closet. It’s been a while.
Seeing as I’ve been wearing the same fuzzy fleece & “soft” pants for about a million months now, thought I’d up my game & wear something nice for Mother’s Day. Pre-pandemic I loved dressing up. These days, however, comfort takes precedence. I’m sure I’ll up my game at some point but not yet. As I stared at my clothes with NOTHING to wear. I realized I needed to reacquaint myself with my wardrobe & ask myself some questions.
Matching hangers can instantly make over your closet.
What do I have?
We have grown accustom to pushing aside the same clothes in search of our go-to outfits. To refresh your wardrobe, take everything out of your closet & lay the clothes on your bed. This will allow you to look at these items in a different light. It also helps you see what you have. Like, do you really need so many jeans?
Does it fit?
Keep what sparks joy but only if it still serves you.
I have a pair of adorable seersucker pants I love, except for one thing, how they fit. They’re rather snug in the hips. I’ve held on to them assuming one day they’ll be comfortable again. Yet instead of motivating me I only feel guilt. Who needs that in their closet—especially on Mother’s Day?
Close Inspection
I love a good sundress. They’re easy, comfortable & perfect to toss on for a grocery run or night out. My favorite was a sunny orange little number bought years ago. Looking at it closely, I noticed the elastic smocking had lost its snap & the color faded. So in true KonMarie fashion, I decided it was time to bless & release that dream of a dress.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
The statistics on tossed out clothes are staggering. Fortunately, there are options for repurposing a lot of it. DM me for a comprehensive list of consignments, charities, even rag centers accepting donations.
