It's a common fact that we spend a lot of time in front of the mirror or our closet. And often, we also tend to avoid stepping outside of our comfort zone and just keep it safe. However doing that only keeps you away from fully developing your sense of style and it results in feeling like your style is boring, wardrobe is hopeless, etc. There's a new world out there, y'know!

So what can you do? In my outfit ideas-series you're going to discover how to make it easier for you to come up with outfits. Let's start with 3 first steps. Organize, plan and then execute! :-)

Step 1 of Outfit Ideas-Series: Organize Your Closet

All pieces should be visible and readily available to you.

Now imagine drawing a picture in the living room with your crayons scattered all over your house. You need red but aren't sure if it's somewhere in the kitchen. You want blue but it's under your bed. You could really use some brown but you're not sure where it is. Now the most common reaction to this is to go out and buy new crayons! However, unless you've kept them in one place, the crayons will again get scattered throughout the house and you're off to buy new ones! And then one day while you're cleaning under the bathroom sink you discover the missing brown crayon when drawing your picture. Now you have two of almost the same crayon when you only need one.

Having an organized wardrobe is very important when putting together an outfit - you should have an overview at your clothes and accessories. It gives you a picture of what you have and don't have in your wardrobe, and makes it easier for you to mix and match.

One of the best ways to organize your closet is to keep all of your tops together, followed by pants, jeans, skirts and dresses. Keep your shoes in one place. Tights and socks in a drawer. Jewelry on a stand or compartment drawer. Scarves and belts on racks.

Note: Unless you have a huge wardrobe you don't really need to sort your clothes by color. Besides, putting together an outfit by clothing type is much easier than by color.

Step 3 of Outfit Ideas-Series: Have a Shopping Plan

Have a shopping plan to come up with outfit ideas

Without a shopping plan, you'll keep going around in a loop about the way you feel about your wardrobe because your clothes aren't in place.

Now after organizing your closet, it's time to sit and rationally write down what you need and don't need.

Here are a few tips on how to do that:

Make sure you have each and every item on the wardrobe essential-list. That said, go through the list and buy whatever is missing from your closet first before you indulge in other trendy pieces. The magic with these basic items is that they can be worn with absolutely everything and they're trend-proof! Click here for the wardrobe essentials-list
List down what you don't need. Ask yourself: Are there any pieces you have too many of? By too many I mean garments you have 3-4 of but you haven't worn and that don't get frequently used. These are unnecessary items that you need to make a clear statement of never to buy. Click here for the 6 elements of looking and feeling great and stylish.
When shopping make sure you know how many outfits you can pull off from one garment with what's already in your closet
