Shop Your Own Wardrobe.

Shopping in your own wardrobe sounds a bit weird doesn't it, but its actually amazing at the treasures you can find in the back of your wardrobe. I have a clothing rail in my room then a couple of boxes that I keep stored away. Every now and again I dig around in the boxes to see what I can find to add to my rail of current clothing. 

So, how do you do it? First gather every single bit of clothing you have, from the back your wardrobe, storage and even the wonky old draw chest that is crammed with clutter (we all have one don't worry haha). Once everything is together create 3 piles:

Pile 1. The things you currently wear.

Pile 2. Stuff you don't want anymore that can be sold or given away.

Pile 3. The hidden gems that you forgot about. 

(I'd put the radio on and grab some snacks whilst doing this because it could take a while!)

Now, its time to bag up those old clothes and throw them out of the way! And then there was two... hang up/fold the clothes that you currently wear or that are new. With the 'treasure pile' (as I like to call it) try them on, style them with things you kept from the previous pile and see if they work or not. If not throw them with the rubbish pile, if they look amaze hang them up with the rest of the pieces. You will be so surprised at the things that you can find. See the jeans above? I have had those things lurking in the darkness for years. I bought them not knowing how to style them so they got pushed to the back. When I came back to them a year later they where too tight, so again they got pushed to the back. This summer I dug them out once again, styled them with some of the newer pieces from my wardrobe and hey presto! I had a chic new look for the cooler summer days. 

It is a little mission to get through this process, but it is something you will not regret!

Do you ever shop through your own wardrobe?
