Hey awesome ones today I have eight clever tips and hacks to help you with your wardrobe
and your closet. You know I always feel so much better when I have things organized. So let's go!
Now if you're like me you have to come up with clever ways to store things.
We downsized from a five bedroom home and wow I really really have to get creative right now. So
let's look at my first tip and that's under the bed storage. This is a fantastic item
and as you can see I'm just showing my sandals now that I would wear in the summertime.
The higher heels I can just sort of put them on the side, water shoes and everyday sandals.
Now for tip number two let's talk about our undies drawer. Did you know that you're supposed to
you know replace your favorite undies every six to twelve months? Well let's take
a look at how I organize this drawer. Here I have folded all of my bras into each other
and i just sort of neatly packed in my undies and at the top here that's my shapewear.
Tip number three is about changing with the seasons. How many of you are still trying to stuff
your winter coats into your closet when it's warm outside. Let's look at a solution. So these clothes
racks from amazon are great and you can even put boots underneath them. I could have easily
had double the amount of coats and it could go in my basement. And by the way I'll have information
on items such as that clothes rack that kind of portable clothes rack underneath the video.
Tip number four has to be my favorite velvet hangers. Look how thin they are.
I also have them for pants and also for tops as well. They're super super thin and you can get a
a lot more clothes into your wardrobe and let's take a look at that. So see how many more clothes I can
get with these thin hangers and what I also like about them is the slinky clothes won't slide off.
So the next tip is how I organize my clothing in my wardrobe. By the way, stay till the
end because I decided to show you my makeup and how I organized that as well. But let's look at
the closet organization. So I like to go from the lightest clothing like camisoles through to maybe
t-shirts and they're a little heavier anyway and also then I would go to shirts and blouses and
sweaters and blazers and of course I'll also have pants and dresses. Alright so tip number six is
to keep your clothing color coordinated. And just before I get to that, you know I was thinking about
those hangers and I wanted to tell you that I do love to put my sweaters on those rounded velvet
hangers and I know a lot of women they want to put them up on a shelf somewhere you know high on a
shelf, but I find that I never wear them that way. This way if they're hanging up in my closet
I can just say hey I want to wear that today and it's all kind of color coordinated. Speaking
about color coordinating let's take a look at what I do in my wardrobe so all the blouses and shirts
and black are together and the same with the white. Then I get into the fun stuff the rainbow colors
like orange and maybe I'm in the mood to wear red or maybe perhaps shocking pink. And as you
can see I get into the blues and everything else and then of course I'm into the jackets.

If you miss it you don't have to miss it. So for tip number seven let's talk about our scarves.
And do you have scarves like all over in a basket somewhere or maybe again they're folded up high
on a shelf? Well that just doesn't work for me. I don't feel like rummaging through
a basket but I think I have a clever idea for you. Let's take a look. So shower hooks help me keep
my scarves in my closet and by my blazers. Now I do use little baskets and you're probably thinking
to yourself okay what does she use her little baskets for? Well I use one of them for a clothes
helpers. You're probably thinking to yourself what are clothes helpers and let's
take a look. All right so these are things that I need in a jiffy like double-sided tape, Tide-to- go,
even a shoe shine little gizmo here. And also I wanted to mention that before I get dressed
I'm always making sure to put on my SPF. I even have a box for that. Now I promised you as a bonus
I would show you my makeup and how I organize it. So here it is. I love love love love these
plexiglass holders. They keep all my lipsticks together. They keep my eyeliners my shadows and
you know you can just see I can see things at a glance. I love the way that
the brushes are because I can find them real quick. Now I know a lot of us know about
toss it donate it or keep it and I've got to tell you you know if you're going through your wardrobe and
maybe you might even want to do it this weekend just throw everything on the bed and then really
really take a look. Do you have 10 pairs of black pants, do you have you know blazers work blazers
that you really don't wear anymore because there are women in and shelters and women in
shelters for abused women who really really could use some of these items. So it always feels
really good to me when I donate my clothes and you know I also think it's really important to
have an uncluttered mind. I certainly did have an undies drawer that was just a mess and I would
just go through everything and and try to rummage through and find something. You know what?
I had to throw them all out. You might think well she hardly has anything in there but
I got some in the wash and I got some in the drawer and that's just fine and sometimes
less is more. So the real reason that I did this video is I just really want you to have a bit of
an uncluttered mind and also in those mornings when you're trying to find something to wear
it's going to be a lot easier for you. You're going to be able to
find a great outfit and you're also going to be keeping it awesome.
