Use The Rule Of Threes
For the first pass, organize clothes into three piles: yes, no and maybe. You can then go through the maybe pile to try things on and see what to keep.
Find What Excites You
Hang onto only items that you look forward to wearing. Keeping clothes because you might find a way to wear them someday is only delaying the inevitable cleanout.
Think Backward
Decide what to toss based on what you wear regularly. If you haven’t worn a piece of clothing in the last year, it might be time to part ways.
Organize For Ease
There are lots of ways to organize a closet, including by season, by color and by occasion: casual to formal. Do what makes sense for your lifestyle.
Get A Second Opinion
A full cleanout and reorganization can be an overwhelming job. Working with a personal shopper or professional organizer can provide an honest, judgement-free perspective of what works and what doesn’t.
