7 Types of Clothing You Should Get Rid of NOW!

Before you even think of getting a walk in wardrobe it would be a good idea to cull your clothes first especially if you are overloaded and overwhelmed. For most males this is generally not too much of an issue but for many ladies we have dealt with, it is.

Our web and SEO guy was telling me once that he had a French girlfriend that had a wardrobe full of shoes. There were over 60 pairs of shoes to choose from. Imagine wearing a different pair of shoes for over 2 months.

Alas that’s not how it works and we generally wear only about 20% of our wardrobes regularly. Because Im male and a bit flabbergasted at the problem I have researched the internet and come up with 7 tips that might help you reduce your wardrobe size. (So when you organise a walk in wardrobe installation your life will be doubly easier!!)

My 7 Wardrobe Reduction Tips

1. Get rid of the duplicates or clones. You don’t need 5 flowery pink numbers, only one. Lay all frocks that are similar and choose your favourite and then discard the rest.
2. Loose the baggy arse tracky pants and stained t-shirts, ewww! You wouldn’t be seen dead in them in public so there is no need to clutter up your wardrobe with them. Let’s have some standards here please.
3. The clothes you wore once. Do you really think you’ll wear them again? That’s right, off to the Salvos or some other clothes donation bin.
4. Anything lying around that you can’t stand. You wore some time ago but the love affair is over. In the bag it goes never to bother your improved tastes again.
5. The repair pile. Please tell the last time you pulled out cotton and thread or the Bernina? See you can’t be arse, I knew it. Damaged goods have got to go as well.
6. The indecisive garment choices. You cant make up your mind. They can be biffed as well. Enough said.
7. Out of fashion – no its not coming back in. Nothing ever comes back in as the original so thats wasting your wardrobe space as well.

Now that you’re incredibly organise and the weight of excess clothing has been lifted I believe you’re ready to discuss a walk in wardrobe install. That wasn’t hard was it?

The icing on the cake for any wardrobe installation are those small accessories that add class and function to your wardrobe that help you with your clothing decisions on a daily basis.

Here are out top three accessories:

1. 1. Wire Baskets:

      Some clothes like jumpers and sweaters don’t do chest of drawers very well but do work with our wire baskets. These wardrobe wire baskets are great because you can see your clothes and air circulates around them so there is no need for moth balls. The wire baskets also come with an acrylic sheet to stop anything drop from one wire basket to clothes below and leave no wire marks on your clothes.

   2. Shoe storage:

      We have two options for storing your shoes either as shelves or easy access carousels. These are the best organisers available and make finding and choosing your shoes at a glance a simple exercises. The carousel option also comes with a handy shelf to store hand bags or other accessories.
      

   3. Hanging Clothes Options:

      There are various wardrobe accessories available to hang your clothes such as:
      1.  Pant rank – 13 or 19 pairs options – either straight or carousel versions. 
      2. Valet rod that can hang your dry cleaning or temporary clothes choices.
      3. Pull out/down shirt rank rod – easy access to all your shirts and blouses
      
      These racks order your clothes perfectly making it easy to store your clothes uncrumpled but also your clothes choices can be made in an instant.
      
      Many times we see clients shoes piled up in the bottom of their wardrobe or pants, trousers and shirts stored together making it difficult to see clothing items clearly. It’s the simple things that make life easier and ordering and storing your clothes helps you start your day without issues because you can see all your clothes at a glance.

Wardrobes Can Be Life Changing

Most people’s homes do not have proper wardrobes that help them organise their clothes and apparel. In fact it’s normally a hanging rail and a top shelf and often an ill fitting chest of drawers. This leads to clutter, lost items and disorganisation. The best scenario would be to have your shirts, skirts, trousers, belts, ties and shoe and not forgetting your jewellery all on display and within easy reach.

This allows you to make outfit decisions quickly and efficiently so you can get on with the more important tasks in your day. It’s stressful looking for clothing or rifling through draws or pulling out a creased shirt. What a terrible start to your day. And then your spouse turns around a tells you to be calm, grrr!

Clutter and disorganisation lead to anxiety

Clutter and disorganisation lead to anxiety not only that it’s a sign of procrastination all because you don’t have a fully operational walk in wardrobe. You have clothes piled up in disarray, clothes you want and clothes you don’t want all mixed together, stuff on the floor and hidden items that you can never remember that they are there. It’s enough to send you straight to the shrink!

Imagine starting your day and after showering the first thing you see is a well organised layout of your clothing in your wardrobe. Your spouse has the same matching belt rack (with a tie rack) clothes baskets, draws, shelves and shoe rack. You can see everything in front of you and a deep feeling of calm prevails. Your outfit decision is quick and your day begins.

After a busy day you’re putting washing away (another tedious activity) but it takes you a few minutes and you’re gone.

The walk in wardrobe has changed your life and made your day!
