It's that time...

To look deep into my closet and toss all that's outdated or don't fit.

I've been pretty good at releasing items as I bring stuff in - but it's time to re-assess some fashion pieces in my closet. I call it the big purge.



Here's what I need to do...

1. Empty the closet
2. Create three piles: Keep, Give away or Consign, Alter

Here's what style tips to remember...

1. If clothes are too small or too large - let them go immediately.

2. Don't save clothes for in case you lose weight. If you do lose weight, you'll want to buy new things.

3. If you have clothes that you really love, but don't fit properly, try to get them altered. If you don't plan to have it altered - then let it go.

4. Buy what fits.

5. Follow the latest trends with trendy jewelry, scarves and shoes rather than clothing. They are less expensive than clothing, and once the trend fades - the accessories should be easier to part with.

6. Keep my dark denim shirts and jackets (that fit). They can be paired with dressier pieces to change the vibe.

7. If  buying expensive pieces, stick with classic clothing that's wearable with any style trend such as straight skirts and pants.

8. Know your body type, accentuate the positive and try to downplay the negative when buying clothes.
