In my dreams I would have a very large Carrie Bradshaw walk in style wardrobe and keep all of my clothes in one place but unfortunately, like the majority of people, I have limited space. So, it’s that time of year again when I take my Spring Summer clothes out of their storage places and get ready to pack the heavy jumpers and coats away.
I think there are lots of benefits to doing this even though it can feel like a bit of a chore!
The most obvious benefit is just having more room to see what you have. If the wardrobe is crammed full of items across all seasons, there are going to be items taking up space that you are realistically not going to wear for several months out of the year.
When you can’t easily see what you have, this is when you are likely to fall into the trap of just grabbing the same outfits over and over again instead of fully making use of what you have.
Taking the time to pack away your items at the end of each season means that you can take the opportunity to think about what you used and what might be time to part with.
This helps to keep on top of making sure everything in your wardrobe is something you love.
Storing items away means that they are likely to last longer, hanging in a crammed wardrobe unworn, they are more exposed to dust and dirt. It is much easier to take care of your current season clothes too if there is more room for them to hang with space between items.
Having less clothes to choose from when you open your wardrobe doors in the morning makes putting together outfits much easier and who doesn’t want as little stress in the morning as possible?
