It's 6am and you have to leave the house for work in 25minutes, in that time you have to wash, eat and ingest enough caffeine to jump start your system, so that you don't continue to feel as if your brain is still wrapped in a warm blanket. At 6.10am you are standing in front of your wardrobe wet and starting to shiver, trying to decide what out of this mass of fabric might go together to form an outfit. Time is ticking and your brain still isn't quite with the program.
I've heard rumours about people who get out of bed, even on the darkest of winter mornings, packed with energy and ready to greet the day - I'm not that person. As a result preparation is the only thing that protects me from some truly horrific fashion mistakes, my early morning brain cannot be left to its own devises. So my wardrobe is set up not only to inspire my choices but also to make it as easy as possible. So that when inspiration's muses can't cut through the fog, I will still get out the door on time, looking as if I might work somewhere in the fashion industry, rather than as a clown or a replica of yesterday.
A few simple changes might make all the difference to you, I know they did for me.
1. Give your wardrobe sections.
2. Organise by colour
3. Hang up as much as you can
4. If you have more than 5 items of the same colour have a clear out
5. Keep accessories accessible
6. Have one in case of emergency outfit.
In this way all you need is a starting point and you are as good as dressed, rather than pulling out half your clothes and throwing them into a pile on the floor or worse just putting on the same old safe choice - Blah, blah. Getting dressed is like any puzzle, when you can see all the pieces, its like they put themselves together. You wouldn't keep your files in random order at work, as its unproductive, so why keep your clothes that way. By putting a system in place you save time and irritation. Give yourself a chance and make life a little easier in the morning.
