How do you feel getting dressed in the mornings? Does it feel like a trick or is it a treat to get dressed. My friend, you do not need to go through frustration to get dressed. Check out the tricks to avoid and how to turn your closet into a treat. Enjoy!

Closet Tricks to Avoid

  • Too Much Clutter: When your closet is overflowing with clothes you don’t love or don’t wear, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. It tricks you into thinking you have nothing to wear when really, it’s just hidden among the chaos!
  • Outdated Pieces: If you’re holding on to clothes that no longer fit your style (or your body), they can weigh you down. Your style should evolve with you, reflecting where you are now.
  • Impulse Buys: We’ve all been there—buying something just because it was on sale, only to find it sitting in the closet with the tags still on. These little “tricks” can drain your budget and crowd your space.

Turn Your Closet Into a Treat!

It’s time to give your closet the treat it deserves—a refresh that makes you excited to get dressed every day!

  1. Purge the Tricks: Start by pulling out anything that doesn’t fit, flatter, or bring you joy. Let go of the pieces that trick you into keeping them around for “someday.”
  2. Keep What You Love: Hold onto items that make you feel amazing. A well-loved piece that fits perfectly and suits your style will always be a treat to wear.
  3. Create a Capsule Wardrobe: Build a collection of timeless, versatile pieces that work together. This makes getting dressed a breeze! Think classic neutrals, a great pair of jeans, a well-fitted blazer, and a few statement accessories to bring in some fun.
  4. Add Some Fun: Don’t be afraid to throw in some bold, playful items that make you smile. A bright scarf, a pair of funky shoes, or a statement necklace can turn even the simplest outfit into a style treat.
  5. Seasonal Staples: Since we’re in the heart of fall, embrace rich, autumnal tones like deep reds, cozy browns, and warm oranges. Add layers for both comfort and style—think cozy knits, stylish boots, and soft scarves that feel as good as they look.

A Final Treat: Confidence

The biggest treat your closet can offer you is confidence. When you open your closet and know that every piece in it makes you feel fabulous, getting dressed becomes an act of self-care. No more closet “tricks” that leave you feeling less than your best!

So, as you head into this festive season, take a moment to treat yourself by giving your closet some love. Trust me, it’s the perfect time to sweep out the clutter and make room for style that fits the confident, radiant woman you are!
