Watch your Wardrobe

You can give a face lift to your personality by building the right wardrobe .You are judged by what you wear and how you wear it.Your attire speaks volumes about you. No matter what you are, a college student or a working professional or a home maker, you can boost your self-esteem by doing a basic wardrobe make over. Here are the steps that you need to follow:

• Don't be a fashion victim. The outfit what Kareena Kapoor flaunts or an over-coat what you saw on a cover girl/boy may not be right for you. Invest on outfits that suit your personality and values. Don't go by the fashion or trend while choosing clothes. Make sure you are comfortable and carry the right image in an outfit.
  
• Organize and maintain. Wash or dry clean them and arrange them according to their type (formals/casuals) or material(cotton/synthetic/silk) or however you are comfortable.You can even simply hang them in hangers and arrange the hangers.In this way, you can save the space and also can easily locate and take an outfit without disturbing the arrangement .Be sure to press them before arranging them in your shelf.If you are planning to fold and arrange your clothes one on the other, you can keep dry leaf bags between your clothes instead of using the naphthalene balls.
  
• Don't stock up. Clear your wardrobe from time to time.If you haven't worn a particular outfit for the past six months(except for the heavily worked outfits that are meant for specific occasions), go ahead and donate it for the poor and needy.The key here is to make you clear the junk pieces that you will no longer wear.It is needless to say that you also need to clear the torn and faded clothes no matter how much they mean to you. Similarly, when you go for shopping, don't grab clothes on the spur of a moment. Analyze your wardrobe and carry a list of items that you need and the budget .
  
• Build a decent number. In your pursuit to make your wardrobe less clumsy, don't hesitate to stock a decent number of clothes.Don't repeat the same outfit at least for three weeks. Similarly, stock up different colors and types of outfits.Of course, this depends upon your lifestyle and personality.
• Grab the accessories.Apart from investing in good quality outfits, pay attention to your accessories as well. There is no point in wearing a well pressed and expensive safari suit with an age old torn slippers.This is a big fashion mistake. Make space in your wardrobe for accessories such as belts, shoes, slippers, bags, jewelery and even hand kerchiefs.

Now all said and done, your wardrobe cannot be changed in a single day. It will take time to give a new lease of life to your wardrobe. Each month allot a small budget for building your wardrobe and stick to that budget. You will see your wardrobe changing completely over a period of time.
