Styles change. Bodies change. Your favourite dress has been through the wash so many times the colour faded and the holes can no longer be hidden or repaired. Blouses are missing buttons and a bit too tight. Even the at-home comfort wear needs an upgrade every now and again. It can be embarrassing for the unexpected visitor to see the big stain down your sweatshirt. It doesn’t have to be like that.
Upgrading and organising your wardrobe can seem a daunting task, but it doesn’t need to be.
Ditch First
Set aside a quiet afternoon and go through your clothes. Don’t stop there; accessories and shoes also need replacing.
Anything old and torn can be binned or repurposed; this includes the old sunglasses and bags. What doesn’t fit also needs to go. Sorry, but you won’t fit back into those jeans you last wore twenty years ago.
Fashion trends can be a bit odd. What was fashionable for all of five minutes in 2015 is just plain hideous now. You are never going to wear that again. You’re embarrassed, even thinking about leaving the house in something so awful. Don’t hang onto your mistake.
Throw old and unwanted items onto the floor. Separate piles for donating, bin and repurpose.
Take Stock
With the old and unwanted items bagged and disposed of in one form or another, you can see what you have and don’t have with more ease. All closets need some essential staple items. Shoes, both flats and heels as well as trainers, sandals and boots. Winter and spring coats. At least one dress for every occasion. These are just one of the few items that may have been thrown out.
Fire Up the Computer
Or tablet. Or smartphone. Shop from the comfort of your bedroom. It is easier than remembering what you need and less tacky than dragging a list through a clothing store. Doing it in front of your half-empty closet helps you make wise and fashionable choices without any pressure.
Save Money
Not only is shopping online more accessible, but it is cheaper. Hush Style has a range of women’s clothing and accessories heavily discounted. Don’t let the price fool you. The latest fashions can come cheap when they’re found online. Shopping online eliminates the pesky salesperson following you around with a sales pitch. There’s nothing worse than getting home and taking the tags off to realise you purchased something you really didn’t want or need. It’ll be like another one of those hideous fashion mistakes you just threw away.
The closet clear-out can be a daunting task. Followed up with shopping, it is easy to come up with excuses to put it off. There’s a need to stay on-trend. The confidence that comes with the latest fashions can impact every area of your life. Cut the stress and expense of a wardrobe upgrade with online shopping. Don’t let the thought of sorting through things and shopping put you off.
