3 Things to Avoid During Your Quarantine Closet Edit

Have you edited your fall winter closet yet? I’m what you might call a “late closet editor.” I just finished my edit, audit, cleanse…whatever you want to call it…last weekend. You see, I adore spring/summer clothes, but I apparently think if I ignore my fall/winter closet, cold weather will come later.

To truly have a wardrobe that let’s you get dressed without any stress, you need to be able to open your every day and be able to pull out any item and wear it at a moments notice. Doesn’t that make sense? Why would you want clothes in your closet that you can’t wear? Here’s the thing—getting dressed can be stressful enough for most women. When you don’t have to qualify the pieces before deciding whether to wear them or not, you’ve taken a big part of the stress out of the equation. There are a lot of factors that [..] read more
