Nice tips! I also keep a "Fits" note in my Notes app on which I paste photos of outfits I wore and liked (select yourself on a photo until iPhone offers to copy just the cutout of you, and paste into a note). When I'm uninspired I can check for outfit combinations I already discovered in the past and had forgotten about

Such a great reminder, Laure! I do my closet swap-over at the end of September/early October, and I’m so excited to get my knits and blazers back, plus my skirts (I am dying for boot weather). I am now challenging myself to finish wearing everything in my closet before then. I’m a die-hard at the backwards hanger method, and I’m getting close!

I love your granny’s outfits! Very 70s influenced. 💕

Do give it a shot! I’ve been using it for years and it’s been really helpful for seeing what’s been worn and what I’m not reaching for.

I had a cool Grandma too-she started my copper collection when she gave me her set in 1986.💕

Great tips thank you for sharing!! I personally also love treating each new re-opening of the seasonal wardrobe into a shopping by spree. It feels like Christmas. And sometimes after a year of those seasonal clothes being stored away, I find that I like them more than I thought. Clothes Just needs some time to rest and reset for a respark of appreciation

Obéir aussi à la règle : quand un vêtement rentre, un autre sort :)

Pas difficile pour moi

So feel you on the East Coast autumn vs Northern Europe autumn: crispy & golden vs gloomy & wistful. Party's over 🥲.
