Warning:
Major nerd out coming your way!
You all know how much I love
shopping and clothes and fashion and all of that… well, as much as I love all
of these things, I’ve never once felt organized. My type A personality just
can’t simply have a clean closet and clothes hung based on genre. Oh no! A couple of months ago, at Wine Club, I was introduced to the StyleBook app for
virtual closet organization. I was immediately intrigued and vowed to take the
time the following weekend to document my clothes (yes I took a picture of
every article of clothing I own!). It was a long process, but totally worth it
in the sense that I was able to touch, feel and hold all of my clothes in order to decide which I wanted to donate and which to keep.
I’ve been religiously using the app now for
about 6 weeks and I’M OBSESSED! I make sure to keep it up to date (remove
clothing I get rid of and add new stuff) and log the outfits I wear everyday...
sometimes I’ll even pick out multiple days’ worth of outfits to be ready for
the week! I loved this app from the very start because I would always recognize
the clothing I really didn’t wear…I scroll through my “closet” on the app so
much I realize what I don’t like anymore or what no longer speaks to my style. Once
these articles of clothing were identified, I would thank it for everything it
has done for me (per the KonMari method) and then down in the goodwill pile it
goes. This exercise is really starting to provide a vision of what my wardrobe
is and a true sense of my own personal (adult) style.
The
app can do so much that I haven’t even tapped into yet (creating “looks”,
loading price and packing lists for individual trips to name a few). I LOVE IT
and can’t wait to use it to its full potential.
I recommend to anyone who's had the virtual closet dream ever since seeing Clueless as a youngster. Enjoy!
Oh my gosh! I have GOT to try this out – I have a handful of trips coming up that this could be so helpful for. Plus seeing most worn in a month. I feel like this will help me with my Capsule Wardrobe organization. #nerdingout with you. See you tomorrow!
