1. Understanding the Closet Chaos Epidemic

Holly kicks off the episode by identifying common wardrobe woes, from overflowing drawers to the emotional clutter that is blocking your style; whether consciously or unconsciously.

2. The First Steps to Freedom

Sorting through your items, (ALL OF THEM), will start you on your purging journey. Holly outlines how to start small, avoid the overwhelm, and focus on keeping what you love and makes you feel good. More doesn't always necessarily mean better. It means closet clutter.

 

She shares her favorite tip: swapping out mismatched hangers for velvet slimline ones to maximize space and add an instant luxe feel to your closet setup.

Consistent laundry practices are key to maintaining that new closet feel.

 

Holly discusses the pitfalls of erratic laundry habits and over-shopping, providing practical advice on how to create a sustainable wardrobe without succumbing to shopping temptations aka: panic shopping. 

 

4. Donations and Sustainable Choices

Once you've sorted through your wardrobe, it's time to give back.

 

Holly emphasizes the importance of donating to charities that can truly benefit from your gently used items and advises on how to choose the right places to make an impact. Places like Dress for Success in your town is a great place to start bringing your gently used items in great condition. 

 

5. Drawer and Shoe Organization

The final touch involves decluttering your drawers and displaying your shoes out of the boxes and off the floor. 

 

Holly gives actionable tips on how to keep everything accessible and orderly, turning your closet into a showcase you’re proud to open every day. Once you complete the clean out, you will never want to go back to your old closet chaos. Make your closet a place where you are proud to get dressed each day.
