The clothes you wear have a significant impact on your confidence. Whether you’re looking for a new-year boost, a new job, or just to feel more confident around your friends or loved ones, wardrobe decluttering and organizing can help.
When your wardrobe is disorganized and cluttered, it can make getting dressed in the morning a stressful and frustrating experience. You may feel like you have nothing to wear, even though your wardrobe or closet is full of clothes. On the flip side, when your wardrobe is organized and full of the clothes you love, getting dressed becomes a confidence inspiring and enjoyable thing to do first thing in the morning.
Breaking the process down:
The first step in decluttering and organizing your wardrobe is to go through your clothes and get rid of anything that you no longer wear or that no longer fits you. This can be a difficult task, as many of us have sentimental attachments to our clothes. However, it is important to remember that holding on to clothes that you no longer wear or that no longer fit you is not going to make you feel good about yourself. It is better to let go of these clothes and make room for the clothes that make you feel great.
Once you have decluttered your wardrobe, you’re ready to start organizing it. To do this, start by grouping your clothes by category, such as tops, bottoms, dresses, and outerwear. If it’s easier, you can also group your clothes by color or by the occasion for which they are most suitable. For example, you can have a section for work clothes, a section for casual clothes, and a section for formal wear.
By separating and organizing your clothes in this way, it makes it easier for you to find the clothes that you need for any occasion. Although it might feel small at first, this will save you time every morning and reduce the stress and amount of decision making involved in getting dressed. Additionally, by having your clothes organized, you will be able to more easily see what you have, and can often lead to discovering an item you love, but had forgotten about (I’ve lost count of the number of times this has happened with clients!). Again, wearing more of the clothes you love, makes you feel more confident more of the time.
An alternative way to look at it:
Another benefit of this process, is that by removing the noise and clutter from your clothes selection, you’ll be more able to determine and build on your own personal style. When your wardrobe is cluttered and disorganized, it can be difficult to put an outfit together quickly, which leads to compromise. When your wardrobe is organised, it becomes easy to see the clothes that you wear most often, the colors that you prefer, and the styles that you feel most comfortable in. This will give you a better understanding of your personal style and help you to make more informed clothing choices in the future (permission to shop!).
To Summarize:
So in summary, decluttering and organizing your wardrobe will have a really meaningful and positive impact on your confidence. When your wardrobe is well organized, getting dressed every day becomes an easy and enjoyable thing to look forward to. You’ll be able to easily find the clothes that make you feel good for any occasion and by having your clothes sorted, you will be able to see what you have, need, and which go well together better.
And did I mention it makes shopping more enjoyable too? Almost forgot to mention that!
I hope this helps, and wish you the very best of luck in developing your morning routine so you really enjoy getting dressed each day. I hope in doing so, it also gives you the additional inspiration to shop and build a sense of personal style that grows your confidence in whatever you’re looking to achieve. Good luck!
