If you are like me, you hold onto that favorite shirt, skirt or pants that are geared more towards hotter temperatures than they are for the approaching 40 degree weather. Sometimes Fall can be tricky, warm in the 70's one day and somehow plunging down to the 40's the next as you stand there watching snow flurries out your window. Here in the Northeast, it is always a guessing game.
I have a very bad habit of just keeping those warmer weather clothes in my closet "just in case," and often still leave my sandals lying around holding out a glimmer of hope that I will be able to wear them one last time before the weather takes it's final plunge into the lower digits and remains there for the next few months. Can you relate?
One of the very wonderful Fashion blogs that I love to read is Style Bites. Today she offered up some really wonderful tips on how to just put the summer clothes away and get ready for winter.
Mainly, when I read her tips today, I felt she was speaking specifically to me. I am the girl who holds onto clothes for sentimental reasons, never to really wear them, but simply let them pile up and collect dust. Or those favorite pair of pants that I know most definitely, with my expanding waistline due to being pregnant, will not be fitting into anytime soon. Or even those sandals that were great when it was sunny and 75, but are really not fit for bone chilling temperatures.
Style Bites goes through step by step what you need to do to force yourself into clearing out the clutter and making way for those Fall and Winter fashions that will soon be begging for your attention.
Are you ready?
