Happy Sunday! Let me know if you’re re-setting & re-organizing your closet for summer! xx

@melaniemcneil407 16 күн бұрын

My closet is big enough and my wardrobe is small enough that I'm not forced to declutter. But like you, I've found a few things don't fit well anymore because of my exercise routine. My shoulders and back are broader, and my biceps are bigger around, so a lot of top layers feel too snug. Time to move those things on, and consider carefully if that creates gaps that I'd like to fill with new (or new-to-me) pieces. Thanks for the tips.

@synxiec 11 күн бұрын

I've been in the process of mostly decluttering, so I think this might be a wonderful add to that process.

You have no idea how helpful you have been for me. I lost 90 lbs over the past year. After getting rid of my "fat" clothes... I had practically nothing left. I still don't have much, but you have inspired me to buy investment pieces. My 3 words are sporty, casual, and fun. It's a new system for me, because fat me was not sporty! The 3 words idea came from you!!🎉 Thank you from this random internet stranger. You've changed my life through my wardrobe!❤

I live in the American South, where it is pretty much warm for 10 months of the year. So, the only switch for me is sweaters, which I keep on a shelf. But, I love this idea of doing a seasonal refresh.

I do this twice a year in our climate. It has really helped me to edit and be more organized. As I’m just doing this today I’ll try your system of everything out and clean the shelves and vacuum the carpet too. I know I have a lot to donate, wish selling wasn’t such a pain, feel like it used to be better.

My goal for this summer is to wear more dresses/skirts as well! As a thick thigh girl, I've always strayed from shorts and skirts but I'm ready to try out some flowy and midi dresses. The challenge for me is styling them in more than two ways to justify my purchases because I'm a jeans and tee girl at heart! Here's to trying new outfits!

I love the seasonal switchovers. I do two pick ones, fall and spring, and in summer i just have a tucked away pile i put the too hot things into as the season gets hotter. If the pile gets too big, then i will put away in my storage boxes.

@amyhoover9 14 күн бұрын

I'm starting to realize that while our style keywords are different, the kinds of clothing we like are pretty similar. I'm definitely starting to feel more comfortable in t-shirts for the majority of the year (winter is an obvious exception), but I have a few select pieces that are a bit more fancy or feminine to round out my capsule collection. Needless to say that this video gave me lots of inspiration! 😊❤❤

@user-qh9rx5pq7p 15 күн бұрын

I have such a strange situation with my clothes. I have: 1. Summer corporate 2. Summer casual 3. Winter corporate 4. Winter casual 5. Summer sports/dog walking 6. Winter sports/dog walking I also have 2 types of personal style. One is bold colours, prints and chunky jewellery. The other is more goth/edgy. I like them both so can't choose only one 😅 As you can imagine I have lots of clothes 🫣

I switched to summer wardrobe approximately 3 weeks ago. And it does look very similar to the spring/winter one as I wear a lot of things all year round (t-shirts, shirts, hoodies). Well, I don't wear hoodies or sweatshirts often during summer, but I keep them close for rainy/colder days

@GoodDaysandBeyond 15 күн бұрын

I've never had to organize and switch around my closet as much as in the past almost 2 hours after having a baby lol. I'm so thankful for certain pieces to still fit. I will say it has really allowed me to find my own unique style through thrifting A LOT. I noticed (bc thrifting is much less expensive) I was gravitating towards a lot of colors I probably wouldn't have bought in a store brand new at full price. I am also gravitating towards investing in MORE classic pieces that I know have some wiggle room in size. Just a lil inspo for anyone going through a change in their size and style:)

I've always rotated my closet for seasons. I grew up in Michigan, where there used to be seasons 😳. Being a Coloradan for the last 30 years, though, oof! You can have all four seasons in one day here 🤦🏾‍♀️🤪

@flohough1870 15 күн бұрын

I have a large closet but because the doors aren't as wide, I have these what I call "alcoves" on either side that are difficult to get to so I use those to store my off season items. I used to do a big changeout before when I used storage bins, but now I do it gradually as the season changes. I also do what I call "laundry strike" where I don't wash clothes until I've worn most of what I have which makes the shift a lot easier. When I wash them, I just put them away to the other section of the closet. The advantages of having a large laundry room too.

@juliehanson1175 15 күн бұрын

I have to say, this was just the video I needed today. The closet was looking pretty stuffed and I realized I have a lot of winter/transitional pieces that could go somewhere else. I would guess that your Toronto weather is at least a little bit like our Minnesota weather. You always have a few sweaters hanging in the closet year round. Clearing them out made a lot more room for spring/summer shirts. Thanks for all of the tips!!

Lol I hear you, we went from 40s to 80s (F- slightly above freezing to low level HOT) in less than 10 days. I don't even do a spring reset lol, I just bring my summer stuff back out & slowly put coats & the less practical scarves & boots into the closet, a few get fully put away til October but with camping season here, lol you need a winter coat, heavy boots, gloves, hats & long johns in the mountains for overnights all summer long anyway... Every year I rely on dresses more & more, they're just so easy & usually look really nice with very little effort

Im switching out my winter/early spring clothes to my warmer weather clothing this week. I'm a clothing maximalist, but i did manage to declutter 8 pairs of jeans so far. When i find a pair of jeans i love, i tend to buy multiples in different washes and lengths (regular and tall) and put some aside for when my current set becomes worn. I do have the room to store them, though. But, in general, i have too much of every type of clothing.

I do not know how you are able to have only those clothes out for everyday. I live in the Caribbean so it is VERY hot here. But I still have a corporate job that requires corporate clothing. And also clothing that is more like your summer wardrobe to go out. Having a capsule wardrobe here is very difficult for this reason.
