have you ever rated your wardrobe? from a scale of 1 to 10…10 being best…is your wardrobe complete? what does having a wardrobe in great shape even mean? this is an excerpt from my july newsletter…thought i would share it on the blog as well…
well…here are 14 signs that your wardrobe is in great shape…
1. only clothing you can wear in the current season is in your closet…clothes for the opposite season are stored away…
2. nearly everything is visible when you open your closet doors…clothes and accessories are not hard to find…
3. shoes are on shoe racks and every single pair is in good condition…
4. your dry-cleaning, alterations, shoe and handbag repairs are not buried in your closet somewhere…you’ve already dropped them off and they’re ready to be picked up this week…
5. you have outfit combinations that you’re 100% sure about…
6. your accessories are easy to grab whether they’re in your closet or on a dressing table…
7. handbags are organized on a shelf or hung on a rack…stuffing is placed inside of them to help keep their original shape…you’ve recently reconditioned them with leather lotion…
8. all the hangers are the same color and design…no clothing items are being damaged by the use of wire hangers…
9. clothing is organized in a way that makes sense to you…either by color, type of item or lifestyle category…
10. you have an outfit you could put on in five minutes for any occasion including dressy or casual parties, sporting events, girl’s night out, romantic dinners, interviews, festivals or funerals…
11. all the clothes in your closet are in colors that flatter you and compliment your coloring…
12. everything in your closet fits you now or within a five-pound fluctuation…anything smaller or larger is stored away or given away…
13. everything in your closet makes you happy…you’re not hanging on to clothes that don’t suit you or conjure up bad memories or make you feel bad about yourself…
14. you have your wardrobe stylist’s phone number on speed dial, and you don’t hesitate to call her when you need help…so for bay area peeps (that would be 415.577.6133)
so? how did you do? i have to say…i am currently working on my own closet…i am not at a 10 yet…but that is my goal…picking out what to wear for your next event…whether it be a bbq, movies with friends, date or gala…or for that matter…the next day for work…should be easy…and stress-free…
and if your closet needs a lot of work…use that number above…and let’s get started…i can tell you story after story of clients who used my services – never thinking that getting dressed could be so painless…
