The first closet clean out was not enough?

Here are a few more tips to take your closet clean-out to the next level!

1.     The Hanger Trick. If you feel as though you kept more than you cut, try turning all of your hangers “backwards” (where the tips of the hooks face your closet door)! After you wear your outfits, re-hang them in the “forward” position (facing the back of your closet). At the end of 30 days of fabulous outfits, review the items left on the hangers in the “backward” position: these pieces are no longer necessary in your day-to-day wardrobe. Consider starting a new give-away bag or invite the gals over and set up a thrift store shopping spree in your closet!

2.     Modern You. Your closet should reflect your style! Have a strict eye to the fit and styles of the pieces that you decide to keep in your closet. Clothes that are overly trendy appear dated. Also, do not keep clothes that are from your heavier days: you will only fear that you will need them again! Throw these out! If your style is no longer representative of your image, ciao bella!

3.     This for That. For staples which are less-than-all there, consider supplementing another piece or accessory that will allow you to keep the staple! Do not be afraid to mix things up! For example, I have a wonderful plum trench coat, but I have lost the belt to cinch the waist. A black patent leather belt still gave me the trench coat feel with a fabulous new update!
