The Best Deals are already in Your Closet
Avoid the hustle and bustle. Look great for the holiday season with what you already have in your closet.
“I had lots of nice pieces that I didn’t even realize went together.” Confident Client
Recently, my daughter-in-law and I planned out my outfit for our upcoming family photo shoot. It took approximately 7 minutes. 7 minutes.
This may not sound like a big deal to some of you and yet if you are reading this blog I am guessing you may be able to relate to this. In the past, this would have literally taken me days, a shopping trip or two, and hundreds of dollars later I still wouldn’t have known what to wear.
So I asked her why she thought the 7 minute choice was possible. Here is our combined conclusion:
7 Minute Decision
The power of 2. We quickly made decisions together.
Fewer choices. I only have my favorite, go-to pieces in my closet.
Kept an open mind.
She admitted she had tried on 10 or more cardigan/vest combos to go with the dress she had decided on. And then there was the scarf. The scarf that she was determined to make work. The scarf that ended up holding her back from making the boot decision. Once she abandoned the scarf idea and it all came together.
All this to say, I get it. The struggle is real. And what I have learned is that less is more. It’s universal. (It works for all areas of our life.) Fewer options makes for easier choices. Also, saved time and money.
You have “diamonds in the rough”. Treasures in and amongst the clutter. Permission granted to keep the treasures and ditch what is holding you back. You don’t need a closet stuffed full of clothes to look good and feel good.
Through this system you will save money 4 ways:
Discover what you already have to avoid duplicate purchases.
Repurpose: Wear one item several ways
Value quality vs. quantity
Saved time = Saved money
Maybe you have heard of the term Wardrobe Capsule. A capsule wardrobe is a term coined by Susie Faux, the owner of a London boutique called "Wardrobe" in the 1970s is a collection of a few essential items of clothing that don't go out of fashion, such as skirts, trousers, and coats, which can then be augmented with seasonal pieces. If you hadn’t heard of this term you have maybe have seen this concept; a little Pinterest here or dash of Facebook there.
As I work with women on the topic of clutter and clothing I find that this wardrobe capsule idea sounds great and many enjoy the images and the concept of it but struggle with the implementing piece. And perhaps even believing it is possible or sustainable.
I’m here to tell you it is possible. It’s why I was able to choose my outfit in 7 minutes.
3 things to be determined:
What’s important to you?
Where to start?
Who is on your team?
Trust me. If you simplify your closet, it’s the beginning of simplifying your life.
I am here to help you determine and implement; be part of your team. It brings me great joy to help you get past what’s holding you back from a confident life. An easier life. A simpler life.
Treat yourself today. Implement my system and free up time to enjoy what’s important to you this Christmas season.
Essential Closet; Clutter Out. Confidence In.
Let’s do it.
