When you look at your closet, do you love almost every piece of clothing in it, or do you end up wearing a lot of the same clothes every morning when you walk through your closet? You need to make sure your wardrobe is working for you, not against you. You need to enjoy the clothes in your closet, not continue to waste money on clothes you don't want to wear. So, let's talk about six things to focus on so that you can love all of your clothes!
1. Make Sure Your Clothes Fit Your Lifestyle
- The first thing to assess is whether your clothes fit your lifestyle. Your lifestyle determines the type of clothing you need.
- If your life is primarily casual but you don’t have good casual options, then you can easily end up with a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear because you really don’t have options for your everyday life.
- So, to love your clothes you need to make sure you have clothes that work for your current lifestyle.
2. Focus On Clothes That Fit Well And Don’t Settle
In order to love all your clothes, they should also fit you well and not be too tight or too big. If clothes are too tight, they’re uncomfortable and you’ll hate wearing them. If clothes are too big, you can easily feel shapeless and frumpy. So, the pickier you are about fit, the more you will love all of your clothes, too.
3. Focus On Clothes That Flatter Your Shape
- When you wear clothes that fight against your shape, it’s easy to feel frustrated by them. Who could blame you? If they’re not cut right for your shape, they could feel wonky at the shoulders, make you feel totally shapeless, or make you feel totally self-conscious if they accentuate parts you didn’t want to accentuate.
- But, when you wear clothes that work with your shape, you’ll love your clothes a million times more!
4. Wear Clothes That Fit Your Style Type
- Lastly, to love your clothes, they need to fit your style! Have you ever bought a top that looked cute on someone else, and even though it looks good on you, you still never want to wear it? It probably doesn’t fit your style type.
- What we wear represents who we are to others. And you likely feel your best when what you’re wearing feels like you!
5. Invest In Versatile Pieces
Versatility is key to maximizing your wardrobe's potential. Look for pieces that can be styled in multiple ways and for various occasions. By investing in adaptable clothing, you ensure that each piece can serve multiple functions, reducing the need for excess items and helping you build a more cohesive, functional wardrobe.
6. Embrace Quality Over Quantity
Quality pieces often stand the test of time better than fast-fashion alternatives. When you prioritize quality, you invest in durability, comfort, and timeless style. High-quality fabrics and craftsmanship not only look better but also feel better, encouraging you to reach for these items more often. Over time, a wardrobe filled with quality pieces reduces the need for frequent replacements, ultimately saving money and enhancing your overall style satisfaction.
This is such a key piece to absolutely loving your clothes. Oftentimes, the women we coach might look really good in an outfit, but they still don’t love what they’re wearing. It’s because the clothes just don’t feel like them. But, when they start nailing their style, it’s amazing! You can see the delight and joy they feel in an outfit that not only looks great but also makes them feel great!
