Surprising, and ultimately, with her three young children, <strong>Marie<\/strong> <strong>Kondo<\/strong> certainly deserves a vacation and to let go a bit on organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She leaves behind a lovely legacy, and thanks to her <strong>Netflix<\/strong> show, many of us have realized just how pleasant it is to open impeccably organized drawers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because yes, when writing about fashion, we often care about our clothes and shoes, but very rarely about how to <strong>organize our wardrobe<\/strong>. And yet&#8230;God knows how many desperate fashionistas don\u2019t know what to wear while their closets are overflowing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So I take this opportunity to share my experience of spending an entire weekend sorting through my clothes using the <strong>Marie Kondo method<\/strong> so that you can finally have a wardrobe at home that looks like a luxury boutique display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why organize your wardrobe mindfully?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because fashion is moving towards sustainability and sorting through your wardrobe can also be a <strong>eco-friendly approach<\/strong>. Organizing your wardrobe and parting with certain clothes doesn\u2019t mean completely giving up on consumerism, but rather reflecting on the usefulness of the clothes you own and whether you really need that little impulse buy that you won\u2019t wear more than twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Every piece of clothing has an environmental impact<\/strong> and now is the perfect time to <strong>adopt a more sustainable approach<\/strong> in our closets. Sorting also means giving more space to the outfits we truly love and that make us feel beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Buy less but better<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some tips for better purchasing your clothing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Prioritize <strong>local brands<\/strong> such as <em>made in France<\/em>, <em>made in Europe<\/em>, or brands that manufacture and produce in a single country.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reduce<\/strong> fast-fashion purchases.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Buy <strong>second-hand<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Opt for clothes made from organic cotton or more <strong>eco-responsible materials<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discover brands we love that truly fit us<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We tend to buy unique pieces in &#8220;heartthrob&#8221; mode that don\u2019t necessarily match. The result? A wardrobe overflowing with clothes, yet we still struggle every morning to choose an outfit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The simplest solution to ensure we have clothes that fit us and with which we can have fun is: to know and buy a few brands that offer cuts that suit us and styles we love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ideally, we could have in our closets one or two brands that offer <strong>quality basics<\/strong> like <a aria-label=\"Vans (opens in a new tab)\" data-old-href=\"https:\/\/www.modalova.fr\/marques\/vans?page=3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">Vans<\/a> or <a aria-label=\"The Kooples (opens in a new tab)\" data-old-href=\"https:\/\/www.modalova.fr\/marques\/the-kooples?page=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">The Kooples<\/a>, for example.

It\u2019s human, but it\u2019s hard to say goodbye to clothes that remind us of memories or that might be useful &#8220;just in case,&#8221; even if we know very well that most of them will never see the light of day again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, sorting can be emotional, but just thinking a little differently can help us see things from a better angle. Sorting allows us to realize all the clothes we own and in the same breath, our spending habits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, organizing is much more than just a household chore; it allows us to learn a lot about ourselves and to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keep the clothes you really love<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Spark Joy Method:<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>How do you know if you should keep that sweater you never wear? It\u2019s very simple: you hold it in your hands and by touching the fabric, you ask yourself if this piece <strong>brings you joy<\/strong>. If yes, you can keep it; if not, you say &#8220;thank you for your service&#8221; and add it to the pile to donate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s <strong>Marie Kondo<\/strong> who popularized this simple and honest technique to keep only the clothes that make us happy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Donate instead of throwing away<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We stay in a sustainable and solitary approach to <strong>give a second life to our clothing<\/strong> that can bring joy to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, if we liked that piece once, it will certainly please someone else who will appreciate it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We can sell our old clothes on second-hand apps or donate them to charities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Create capsule outfits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Organizing your wardrobe allows you to realize that you often have far too many clothes and that you don\u2019t always appreciate the beautiful pieces you possess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After sorting and <strong>keeping only the clothes you truly wish to wear<\/strong>, you can move on to the next step: creating <a href=\"https:\/\/uk.modalova.com\/zine\/having-style-at-office-what-if-you-bet-capsule-collection\/\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"capsule outfits (opens in a new tab)\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"ek-link\">capsule outfits<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Preparing several capsule outfits allows you to always have coherent outfits made with interchangeable pieces on hand. You can thus have a wardrobe composed of about thirty pieces that includes several <strong>quality basics<\/strong> and always have perfectly harmonious ensembles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoasFHTSYfH\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\"background:#FFF;border:0;border-radius:3px;margin: 1px;max-width:540px;min-width:326px;padding:0;width:99.375%;width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px);width:calc(100% - 2px)\"><div style=\"padding:16px\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoasFHTSYfH\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" style=\"background:#FFFFFF;line-height:0;padding:0 0;text-align:center;text-decoration:none;width:100%\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <div style=\"flex-direction: row;align-items: center\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;flex-grow: 0;height: 40px;margin-right: 14px;width: 40px\"><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: column;flex-grow: 1;justify-content: center\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;margin-bottom: 6px;width: 100px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;width: 60px\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div style=\"padding: 19% 0\"><\/div> <div style=\"height:50px;margin:0 auto 12px;width:50px\"><\/div><div style=\"padding-top: 8px\"> <div style=\"color:#3897f0;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:550;line-height:18px\">View this post on Instagram<\/div><\/div><div style=\"padding: 12.5% 0\"><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: row;margin-bottom: 14px;align-items: center\"><div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px;flex-grow: 0;margin-right: 14px;margin-left: 2px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;height: 12.5px;width: 12.5px\"><\/div><\/div><div style=\"margin-left: 8px\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 50%;flex-grow: 0;height: 20px;width: 20px\"><\/div> <div style=\"width: 0;height: 0;border-top: 2px solid transparent;border-left: 6px solid #f4f4f4;border-bottom: 2px solid transparent\"><\/div><\/div><div style=\"margin-left: auto\"> <div style=\"width: 0px;border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4;border-right: 8px solid transparent\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;flex-grow: 0;height: 12px;width: 16px\"><\/div> <div style=\"width: 0;height: 0;border-top: 8px solid #F4F4F4;border-left: 8px solid transparent\"><\/div><\/div><\/div> <div style=\"flex-direction: column;flex-grow: 1;justify-content: center;margin-bottom: 24px\"> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;margin-bottom: 6px;width: 224px\"><\/div> <div style=\"background-color: #F4F4F4;border-radius: 4px;flex-grow: 0;height: 14px;width: 144px\"><\/div><\/div><\/a><p style=\"color:#c9c8cd;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;line-height:17px;margin-bottom:0;margin-top:8px;overflow:hidden;padding:8px 0 7px;text-align:center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CoasFHTSYfH\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" style=\"color:#c9c8cd;font-family:Arial,sans-serif;font-size:14px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:17px;text-decoration:none\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A post shared by Ava | Stylist | Capsule Wardrobe (@waitletswearthis)<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The organization<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, it\u2019s not the most fun task, but it\u2019s important when you want to organize your wardrobe.
