Surprising, and ultimately, with her three young children, she certainly deserves a vacation and a little relaxation on the organization front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She leaves behind a lovely legacy, and thanks to her <strong>Netflix<\/strong> show, many of us have realized how pleasant it is to open impeccably organized drawers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because yes, while writing about fashion, we often worry about our clothing and shoes, but very rarely about how to <strong>organize our wardrobe<\/strong>. And yet&#8230; God knows how many desperate fashionistas do not know what to wear while their closets overflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, I take this opportunity to share my experience of spending an entire weekend sorting through my clothes using the <strong>Marie Kondo method<\/strong> so that you can finally have a wardrobe at home that looks like a luxury store display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why organize your wardrobe with intention?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because fashion is becoming sustainable, and sorting through your wardrobe can also be a <strong>green initiative<\/strong>. Organizing your wardrobe and parting with certain clothes does not mean completely renouncing consumerism, but rather reflecting on the usefulness of the clothes you own and whether you really need that little impulse purchase that you won&#8217;t wear more than twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Every piece of clothing has an environmental impact<\/strong>, and it&#8217;s the right time to <strong>adopt a more sustainable approach<\/strong> in our closets. Sorting also means giving more space to the outfits we truly love and that make us feel beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Buy less but better<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some tips for purchasing your clothing more wisely:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Prioritize <strong>local brands<\/strong> such as <em>made in France<\/em>, <em>made in Europe<\/em>, or brands that manufacture and produce in a single country.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reduce<\/strong> fast fashion purchases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shop for <strong>second-hand<\/strong> items.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Opt for clothing made from organic cotton or more <strong>eco-friendly materials<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discover brands you love that really suit you<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We tend to buy unique pieces in a &#8220;love at first sight&#8221; mode that don\u2019t necessarily go together. The result? A wardrobe overflowing with clothes, yet we still struggle each morning to choose an outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The simplest solution to ensure we have clothes that fit us and that we can have fun with is to know and buy a few brands that offer cuts that suit us and styles we love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ideally, we could have in our closets one or two brands that offer <strong>quality basics<\/strong> like <a aria-label=\"Vans (opens in a new tab)\" data-old-href=\"https:\/\/www.modalova.fr\/marques\/vans?page=3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">Vans<\/a> or <a aria-label=\"The Kooples (opens in a new tab)\" data-old-href=\"https:\/\/www.modalova.fr\/marques\/the-kooples?page=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">The Kooples<\/a>, for instance.

It\u2019s human nature, but it\u2019s hard to say goodbye to clothes that remind us of memories or that might be useful &#8220;just in case,&#8221; even if we know very well that most of them will never see the light of day again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, decluttering can be emotional, but just thinking a bit differently can allow us to see things from a better angle. Decluttering helps us realize all the clothes we own and, at the same time, our spending habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, organizing is much more than a simple household task; it allows us to learn a lot about ourselves and to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep the clothes you truly love<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Spark Joy Method:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>How do you know if you should keep that sweater you never wear? It\u2019s very simple; you hold it in your hands and, by feeling the fabric, you ask yourself if this piece <strong>brings you joy<\/strong>. If yes, you can keep it; if not, you say &#8220;thank you for serving us&#8221; and add it to the donation pile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s <strong>Marie Kondo<\/strong> who popularized this simple and honest technique to keep only the clothes that make us happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Donate instead of throwing away<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We stay in a sustainable and solitary approach to <strong>give a second life to our clothes<\/strong> that can bring happiness to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, if this piece appealed to us one day, it will surely please someone else who will appreciate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can sell our old clothes on second-hand apps or donate them to charities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create capsule outfits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Organizing your wardrobe allows you to realize, on one hand, that you often have way too many clothes, and on the other hand, that you don\u2019t always appreciate the lovely pieces you own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After decluttering and <strong>keeping only the clothes you actually want to wear<\/strong>, you can move on to the next step: creating <a href=\"https:\/\/us.modalova.com\/zine\/having-style-office-what-if-you-bet-capsule-collection\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"capsule outfits (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">capsule outfits<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Preparing several capsule outfits means you always have cohesive outfits made with interchangeable pieces at your fingertips. Thus, you can have a wardrobe consisting of about thirty pieces, including several <strong>quality basics<\/strong>, and always have perfectly harmonious ensembles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoasFHTSYfH\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\"background:#FFF;border:0;border-radius:3px;margin: 1px;max-width:540px;min-width:326px;padding:0;width:99.375%;width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px);width:calc(100% - 2px)\"><div style=\"padding:16px\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoasFHTSYfH\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" style=\"background:#FFFFFF;line-height:0;padding:0 0;text-align:center;text-decoration:none;width:100%\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <div style=\"flex-direction: row;align-items: center\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;flex-grow: 0;height: 40px;margin-right: 14px;width: 40px\"><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: column;flex-grow: 1;justify-content: center\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;margin-bottom: 6px;width: 100px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;width: 60px\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div style=\"padding: 19% 0\"><\/div> <div style=\"height:50px;margin:0 auto 12px;width:50px\"><\/div><div style=\"padding-top: 8px\"> <div style=\"color:#3897f0;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:550;line-height:18px\">View this post on Instagram<\/div><\/div><div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0\"><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: row;margin-bottom: 14px;align-items: center\"><div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px;flex-grow: 0;margin-right: 14px;margin-left: 2px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px\"><\/div><\/div><div style=\"margin-left: 8px\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;flex-grow: 0;height: 20px;width: 20px\"><\/div> <div style=\"width: 0;height: 0;border-top: 2px solid transparent;border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4;border-bottom: 2px solid transparent\"><\/div><\/div><div style=\"margin-left: auto\"> <div style=\"width: 0px;border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4;border-right: 8px solid transparent\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;flex-grow: 0;height: 12px;width: 16px\"><\/div> <div style=\"width: 0;height: 0;border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4;border-left: 8px solid transparent\"><\/div><\/div><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: column;flex-grow: 1;justify-content: center;margin-bottom: 24px\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;margin-bottom: 6px;width: 224px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;width: 144px\"><\/div><\/div><\/a><p style=\"color:#c9c8cd;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:17px;margin-bottom:0;margin-top:8px;overflow:hidden;padding:8px 0 7px;text-align:center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoasFHTSYfH\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" style=\"color:#c9c8cd;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:17px;text-decoration:none\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by Ava | Stylist | Capsule Wardrobe (@waitletswearthis)<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Organization<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, it\u2019s not the most fun task, but it is important when you want to organize your wardrobe.
