{{Spring Cleaning}}

Hi Mermaids!
Spring is just around the corner and I don't know about you, but I DEFINITELY need to start some {{Spring Cleaning}}!
Now I'm not talking about the boring cleaning--dusting, vacuuming, laundry, etc.
I'm talking about the FUN cleaning...organizing and revamping your closet!
I will share my tips and tricks to get everything in your closet organized and in line...just in time for the spring blooms!

1. Make your closet a chic boutique:
Wouldn't you LOVE if Nobella Grace was your ENTIRE closet? I know I would! Imagine your closet as your favorite boutique and add fun details and colors to make it all yours! Maybe a cute print right by the closet door? Or colorful wooden letters of your initals? Or organizational bins in a fun print? Make your closet a fun, fashionable place where you like to be!

2. Play HOT or NOT:
Go through each item, keep what is HOT (items you LOVE) and eliminate what is NOT (items that you never wear or no longer flatter your body). While you do this, keep a list of items you feel you need to add to your closet (colors you're missing, patterns you wish you had, or staple pieces that you need)

3. Group similar items together:
I like to group my clothing items by type, but some people prefer color! It's totally up to you! Here's how my closet looks:
From left to right I have: Skinny strap tops, tank tops, short sleeve tops, 3/4 length tops, kimonos, and long sleeve tops. Next, I have shorts, skirts, maxi skirts, skinny strap dresses, tank dresses, short sleeve dresses, and long sleeve dresses. Then I have cardigans, sweaters, and jackets. I keep my pants and jeans in a dresser drawer.
It's so easy finding out what the weather is and then being able to choose what I am going to wear from the section of my choice. I also try to rotate my items in the group. So basically, after I wear and wash something, I put it in the back of the section, so the items that I haven't worn are at the front of the section for next time.

4.  Organization is an ongoing process:
You are not going to become organized in one day! It takes time and work to figure out what works for you, your closet, and your style. Keep trying and please leave any questions that you may have below!

Until Next Time
Xoxo,
