The Phases of Style Coaching : Your Wardrobe Preparation

Alex & Lucy continue their conversation on evaluating your wardrobe. Getting prepared.

Alex & Lucy continue their conversation on evaluating, planning and building your wardrobe and the preparation steps.

Alex & Lucy talk about getting prepared.

They haven’t actually talked about going through your clothes yet – that’s next time!

It’s so important to be prepared before you start looking through your clothes.

So here is a summary of Lucy’s preparation suggestions

  • know what you want to achieve. 
  • have ready what you need – bin bags, hangers etc
  • clean cupboards and drawers as you go.
  • wear something easy to get on and take off for trying items on.
  • a full length mirror.
  • a phone for taking photos of outfits created.
  • a notebook to write 2 lists.  What you need to buy.  What you don’t need to buy.
  • how are you going to do it?  Take everything out at once?  Category by category?
  • how long are you going to do it for?  Over a period of days, weeks, months? 
  • which piles are you going to create as you go along?  Memories, charity, alterations/mending, try on, not sure etc.

And most importantly. 

How are you going to celebrate your success?

  • you finished a drawer.
  • you sorted your socks.
  • you actually made a start after saying you’re going to do it for 2 years.

    As a mum of two young boys, a bulldog puppy and also running my own coaching business I am always on the go! And the clothes I had didn’t support that lifestyle. Plus I live in Wales, so it is usually raining 🙂 and yet I had a wardrobe full of impractical smart dresses from my days in corporate.
