Last Friday, I decided to tackle the project of organizing my teeny-tiny closet.
Since it’s so tiny, I have to rotate my clothes at the change of seasons. And since the weather was finally cool enough to wear light sweaters, last weekend seemed like the perfect time to swap some clothes.
Also, I had recently read about maintaining a high closet GPA on younghouselove.com… The idea is that everything in your closet is graded on a scale of 1-10 (So, my favorite Marc Jacobs dress would be a 10, whereas the cheap-o top I bought because of the price yet never like to wear would be a 6) and you aim to maintain a high average of all the items in your closet.
So, keeping these things in mind, I set out to organize. First, I removed anything that was a) too summery (and therefore not suitable for fall layering) or b) had a low grade / hadn’t been worn in 6-9 months (I figured that if, after 6 months or so, I still didn’t really like the lower-grade/hardly-worn items, it might be time to take them to Goodwill) . After this step, I had plenty of room to add the fall/winter clothes.
Now, thankfully, I have sweaters close at hand AND a higher closet GPA, so to speak… Making choosing outfits that much more fun!
Yay for closet organizing!
