However, why is it so important to have order in the closet? First of all, it helps you to see the whole wardrobe, which will allow you to experiment with new outfits every day.

Secondly, if you choose to organize all the stored items into categories, you will keep the cleaning much easier. This gradual transformation will also help you in your daily life because you will become a much more organized and orderly person.

Whether you have a little space and use a closet or you are among the lucky ones who have a huge dressing room, apply the ideas below and you will save a lot of space, being much more efficient in organizing the elements.

How to organize your wardrobe efficiently? How to take care of your clothes?

  1. Sort all the clothes and things in the closet so that you keep only the items that you wear frequently or that you think you will use shortly. The things that remain after this selection, donate to people who will enjoy them.
  2. Wrap your clothes in categories so that it is easy for you to choose outfits. You can have the following categories of folded clothes: T-shirts and T-shirts, long-sleeved blouses and sweaters, elegant tops, sweatshirts, jeans, sweatpants, and tights or skirts and shorts. You can also place the clothes you were in the house separately.
  3. Wrap your clothes carefully, but make sure they are washed and ironed beforehand. Do not store dirty or wrinkled clothes in the closet. Always choose to use iron after the clothes have dried, so that you can store them in the closet ready for new wear.
  4. If you have enough space, arrange your clothes on hangers. Choose to put on shirts, dresses, jackets, elegant pants, or skirts. In this way, you will use the space efficiently, but you will also store properly the clothes that are wrinkled the easiest.
  5. Use special boxes for other things and small items that you store in the closet. This category includes underwear, socks, or various other accessories, such as belts. If you do not have enough drawers or compartments inside the closet, this solution will help you organize efficiently, but also protect the fine things, easily degraded.
  6. To enjoy even more space, at the end of each season, pack your clothes and store them in bags.

Another important aspect that comes with the decision to have a tidier wardrobe is the clothes themselves. If you focus on all the above steps, you will contribute a small but very important step towards a more sustainable life.

Taking care of the cleanliness of your wardrobe and the way the clothes are organized, you will be able to wear them much longer.

So, you will not have to resort to new items of clothing that are already in your wardrobe every season. Choose to take care of your things by being tidy and organized!
