IS IT POSSIBLE TO REFRESH YOUR WARDROBE WITHOUT THROWING ANYTHING AWAY?
If you want to change the clothes in your wardrobe, the first thing that comes to mind is throwing away many clothes, then going shopping! First of all, this is a huge waste of hard-earned money... If your clothes don't have any holes or tears, keep them for now. After all, you can refresh your wardrobe without having to throw any of the clothes or accessories you haven't worn for a while into the trash!
This idea may seem impossible to you, especially if you want a new look or are used to online shopping frenzies. However, you don't always have to buy completely new clothes to design a new outfit.
Are you ready to refresh your existing style? Here are some tips on how to achieve this without throwing anything away from your wardrobe:
Examine Your Wardrobe in Stages
Before starting your renewal and reorganization journey, there's something you need to know about organizing a messy wardrobe. Unfortunately, this process doesn't work the same way for everyone. Indeed, you may find that throwing everything in your wardrobe onto your bed and going through each piece individually with fresh nostalgia won't help you much. Trying to do everything at once can be extremely overwhelming and you might give up before you're even halfway through.
Therefore, instead of piling your entire wardrobe on your bed, consider first dividing your wardrobe into manageable sections by clothing types. For example, you could examine your tops first, then your bottoms. After that, you can examine full-length pieces like dresses and jumpsuits.
You don't have to do all of this in one day either. For example, you could plan a specific day for your tops, then schedule a separate date for your bottoms.
After going through these steps, you'll be able to better gauge the clothes you already have and where each one stands in the hierarchy of things you still want to wear. You might rediscover some old but still classic pieces that you can reintegrate into your daily outfits. Another possibility is coming across items that were once your favorites but got pushed to the back of your wardrobe and forgotten!
Create an Inventory of Your Wardrobe
If you have a lot of fashion items, it's a good idea to keep an inventory of your clothes and accessories. Doing this will make you think more carefully about the pieces in your wardrobe and how to organize them. When it comes to organizing your wardrobe and getting acquainted with a sustainable style, you need to be serious about making this change in your life. Another benefit of creating an inventory of your clothes is that by reviewing the clothes you already have, you can more easily determine what kinds of combinations you can create.
Create New Outfit Combinations with Existing Pieces
You don't need to look far to find new clothes. It's very likely that your existing wardrobe has a new combination waiting to surprise you! Most probably, you've never even tried that special outfit combination with the pieces you have...
Therefore, it's time to move away from your usual combinations and look for different combinations you can create by mixing and matching your clothes in unusual ways. By doing this, you'll ensure that none of your existing clothes go to waste and breathe new life into your old pieces.
Indeed, bringing new life to your existing clothes means ensuring that nothing goes to waste, that is, putting the first step of slow fashion into practice! It means enjoying the pleasure of existing without needing more to feel #beyourself!
