3 Wallet-Friendly Steps to a Winning Wardrobe
What’s the biggest obstacle standing in your way of having a killer wardrobe?
Most women would say money.
This might surprise you, but that’s not true!
Research shows that the average woman has nearly $6,000 in clothes, accessories, and makeup she doesn’t love and doesn’t use. Can you imagine going on a $6,000 shopping spree?
Money is obviously not the solution for a lot of women.
I’ve discovered that something else actually gets in the way of your dream wardrobe. And I want to help you get rid of it, so you can love the way you look.
Where the wardrobe dilemma starts
The fashion industry is really good at creating fashionable clothes—but not at supporting women’s true beauty.
Every few months, the trends change and you’re supposed to switch out your current clothes for new styles. You’re also supposed to own certain wardrobe “basics” that you may not feel comfortable in, or even like!
All these fashion rules support the industry, instead of the women wearing the clothes.
That’s not right!
I’ve suffered from feeling like I had nothing to wear. The problem wasn’t quantity, since I had a closet full of clothes, jewelry and accessories. The problem was that I had a closet full of clothes that were not right for ME and my unique type of beauty.
I was settling and wasting a lot of money.
Now I understand why I felt like I had nothing to wear. And now my closet is filled with clothes and accessories that I love. Your closet can be, too! Here’s how you can do it…
Save your wardrobe (and your wallet) with the 3-3 game
Your closet will tell you what’s not working… you just need to pay attention.
Try this easy exercise and stop wasting money!
Step 1: Items you love
Pick out 3 items from your closet that you absolutely love. It doesn’t matter if they’re shoes, jewelry, accessories, or articles of clothing.
They just need to be items you love and wear all the time. They should make you look and feel great every time you wear them.
Step 2: Items you don’t wear
Now pick out 3 more items. This time, choose items you rarely or never wear. They might be things you thought you loved, but you don’t really like now.
Do you own items that you feel guilty for not wearing more often? Anything in your closet that’s technically a good investment—but you just never reach for it first? Those are good items to choose for this step.
Step 3: The most important part
Figure out which elements each group has in common. Do you love (or avoid) certain items because of the way they feel on your body? What about texture, color, or pattern?
Write two lists: one list of which qualities make an item a favorite, and another list of which qualities describe the clothes that never make it out of the closet.
Next time you go shopping, pay attention to those qualities in the clothes you try on.
No matter what’s trendy this season, you’ll be able to find clothes that fit in with your favorites. Don’t let fashion magazines talk you into anything. Trust yourself!
The ultimate key to wardrobe well-being
What if you could overhaul your wardrobe so that it was brimming with back-to-back gorgeous outfits that made you look and feel great?
What would it feel like to love every item in your closet?
The key is your Beauty Sixth Sense. And every woman’s got one.
Your beauty sixth sense is an internal voice that knows which styles are best for YOU. When you ignore it, you waste money and fill your closet with items that don’t highlight your natural beauty.
Getting back in touch with your beauty sixth sense is vital. But it can take a lot of trial and error. So I want to give you a shortcut:
