35 tips on how to organize your wardrobe in a practical way

We chatted with personal organizer to share amazing tips on how you can keep your wardrobe well-organized.

1. Where to start organizing?

According to Leide, the first step of any organization is screening. For her, this step helps to understand what we want to remain and what should be removed.

To help you get started with this sorting, sort your items into categories: shorts, blouses, pants, socks, underwear, etc. Make a choice of what you will keep, because the main point in a small wardrobe is to have few pieces.

It is important that you value the visualization of the items. Storage needs to be practical, making it easy for you to find what you need without wasting too much time.

4. Double wardrobe

For the couple’s wardrobe, the most important thing is to maintain individuality. Everyone should have their own space to organize their belongings.

5. Children’s wardrobe

According to Leide, children’s closets vary a lot according to the routine of the house and the age of the children. However, it is important that children from 2 to 5 years old have a certain autonomy to help with the cleaning, paying attention to the way they like and feel better.

The personal organizer usually separates the clothes for going out from the clothes for staying at home, in addition to leaving the objects that are used most often at an accessible height for the little ones.
