Cleaning out your closet for the New Year and improving your wardrobe


1.)   Any clothes that you have not worn in six months to over a year can be removed from your wardrobe.
2.)   Clothing over two sizes or under two sizes from your current size should be removed from your closet.
3.)   Once you have remove clothing that you do not wear or cannot fit you should look at what pieces you have left.
4.)   The pieces you have left can be match up to make outfits for work or you’re off time.
5.)   Matching up pieces gives you an idea of what new pieces you need to enhance your personal style.

What do you do with the old clothing that you will not be wearing again you ask? Donate them to your local shelter, charity, or church to be used by someone in need
