A tidy wardrobe saves time but also allows you to appreciate your clothing more. Get a neat, functional, and stress-free wardrobe with these steps.

1. Start with a Clean Slate

The first thing to do is to empty out your closet. Yes, all of it out! This lets you see how much room you have to work with and allows you to judge each piece. When going through your clothes:

• Ask yourself if you adore the item and whether it gets a lot of use.

• Ensure that it still fits and is in good condition.

• If you have not worn it in the past year or no longer fit, recycle or give it away.

• This is a scary moment, but one that you will need to bear in order to have a clean room.

2. Categorize Your Clothing

Once you have your closet organized, then you can split your clothes up into categories. you'll be able to get a better idea of what you have and how much space each category of clothes will take up. Some common categories can be:

• Shirts and tops

• Pants and jeans

• Dresses and skirts

• Jackets and coats

• Underwear and socks

• Accessories like scarves, belts, and hats

• Wooden or velvet hangers for heavier items such as coats and jackets.

4. Arrange by Color and Type

Categorizing clothes by type and color is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also simpler to find what you need. Do the following:

• Within each type (bottoms, tops, dresses), sort by color.

• Colors sort in rainbow order: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, and finally neutrals like black, white, gray, beige.

• For dresses or other long pieces, you can also sort them by length from shortest to longest.

6. Optimize Doors and Hidden Areas

Don't forget about the back of your wardrobe doors or other out-of-sight spaces. These are ideal for holding small items. Try:

• Attaching hooks or racks to the doors to hold scarves, belts, or handbags.

• Attaching small sticky hooks to hold lightweight items such as jewelry or hats.

• By utilizing these out-of-sight spaces, you can have a blank and organized main wardrobe space.
