Day Eight of the 10-Day Spring Cleaning Challenge – The Closet

Did you clean today? I didn’t clean today. The Buzzfeed Spring Clean Challenge for Day 8 is to do the closets and I just wasn’t into it. Well, maybe I kind of cleaned the closet. I returned two pairs of pants to Nordstrom. These pants look so cute on the model but not so cute on my curvy figure. I need to get back into the habit of working out everyday.

I fell in love with these Robert Clergerie Gored Oxfords

and these Nicholas Kirkwood Chevron Loafers

Sadly, they are not in my closet.

I’m still going to post the challenge because I know you are better people than I am.

One minute: Take out three things
Don’t spend too much time on it, just find three things that are trash or old or don’t belong there. Get rid of them or put them where they actually belong.

Five minutes: Focus on a shelf ( + throw out three things)
Forget the hanging racks, just start with whatever is on the shelves above the rack. Refold things. Try this genius trick to fold a shirt in two seconds. Make sure all boxes and bins face out so you can actually identify things when you go to look for them.

Ten minutes: Turn all your hangers the “wrong” way ( + throw out three things + clean a shelf)
After you wear something and wash it, put the hanger back the right way. This is the best way to see what you actually wear so you know which things to get rid of after a month or a season.


Tomorrow is another day and I will do my best to get back on the bandwagon.
