These 5 Items Can Make Your Closet Feel Disjointed | How to Fix!

[@gailp5892]

My grandson was getting married and it was a FORMAL dress occasion. I bought a pant suit with sequins on the top and thought “I will never wear this again!” I finally returned it and bought a satin blouse which I wore with black dress pants and black heals and felt very comfortable in this outfit. And I will definitely wear that outfit again to a nice dinner or party.

[@jodrew1845]

That is my standard and I change it with several sequent shawls and jewelry.

[@marijeb278]

on a slightly related note: you mentioned (very accurately imo) that donating should always be the last option, and that got me thinking about discarding items. I see quite a lot of people being quite flippant about "just donating" it as a sustainable way to purge, even though most donated clothes end up in landfill, and I slightly struggle with guilt when letting things go because of this. I'd love to see a video on ideas on how to sustainably deal with the items you want to let go?

[@kelleyking]

Agree. Seems like the problem starts with bringing it in. What is already there has to go sometime.

[@_inflection3209]

I use Poshmark. I sell things that don't end up working for me, maybe that's an option for you

[@lisamcdonagh4518]

There are lots of options. If it's kids clothes a lot of daycares will accept used clothing for kids who have accidents. For adults, you have consignment, Poshmark, you can donate to a women's shelter or sometimes hospitals will take them for patients that may need support (the mental hospital in our city accepts clothing and creates a free shop for patients to go and get some clean "new" clothes).. you can do a clothing swap with neighbors... Lots of options

[@Ingrid0410]

I always donate to a charity I support and believe in, such as the Salvation Army, all proceeds support their marvelous free addiction treatment centers👍👍

[@halliebass]

I rehome stuff to specific people. I gave a basket full of assorted items: dresses tops and sweaters to a young mom who hasn’t got a lot of excess money. She was delighted and I picked out stuff I thought she would wear. I used to take my stuff to work and my colleagues would choose anything they wanted. I don’t just landfill it or give it to places that will throw it away. I also make sure that the things I rehome are in good repair. I don’t mind seeing my clothes on others and I do lend items for occasions or travel. I have a dress that has been everywhere!

[@itoshiibaka8267]

I love your message that the classics should be YOUR classics. The traditional list of classic items and cuts is NOT my style. But some pieces can work if I choose carefully: for instance, I will hardly ever choose to wear a blazer if it doesn't have stretch. Even a jacket or coat must allow ease of movement. I've had to relinquish many blazers over the years because they were too stiff or cut wrong. Knowing what feels best on my body is so empowering. 😊

[@jodrew1845]

An addition, if you live in a small space. I've found that using garment bag's helps to separate the one-off pieces from the capsule workhorse pieces.

[@carlsenlifeafter60carlsen11]

It’s funny because people think that oh I can’t wear that I wore that to the last party. Really nobody remembers what you wore unless it was just really outstanding. I realize this year‘s ago. I have a simple V-neck longsleeve velvet burgundy dress that I like to wear at Christmas. I’ve had it for at least 10 years. It still looks great and it’s beautiful simple and classic. Nobody remembers it but I’ve got several photos of me in that same dress.

[@olgasulaeva2845]

I've been using isolation for years, and it works. 6 years ago I isolated my "pregnant wardrobe", which was of great use once again, 1 year ago with my second pregnancy. The same is about "breast-feeding wardrobe"and so on.

[@amycorkery9487]

I had a wedding to go to recently and struggled to find something to wear. It seemed ridiculous to spend a large amount on one outfit I didn’t really like and would never wear again. I had the same inspiration to invest in separates I would wear again. I went to the wedding in a skirt I already owned and an elevated but simple top I can wear with multiple options. I felt great at the wedding as the outfit was really me! I had a lot of compliments too :)

Plz do a video on your purchases while travelling and why you bought them. I love what you mention when you find a fab piece but it doesn’t incorporate well into your existing wardrobe so you pass. 👍👍good thing to consider

[@NicTC26]

Your point about finding the classic closet essentials that work for you hit home so hard. No matter how much I’ve tried, blazers never felt comfortable to me - on my body or style wise. Cardigans filled that ‘outer layer’ gap blazers vacated, matching my three words before I defined them. Not to feed into the stereotype, but this librarian loves a cosy cardigan. It feels the energy of each piece matches mine.

[@Anna-2]

As I knitter I also wear almost exclusively cardigans (and sweaters) as my outerwear!

[@yifatjovani333]

I have Cardigans in almost all colors! They truly fit my personality and I love the Outfit combination that I create with them. I have a few blazers that I enjoy wearing but cardigans are definitely my go to layer.

[@_inflection3209]

Hey Alyssa, so I still haven't figured out my three words. I was watching another KZbin video, I can't remember who it was some random one, but something fun that I've been doing is, instead of thinking of your three words when you're getting dressed. You stand in front of your closet and you say to yourself. How do I want to feel today? Say you want to say cozy and casual or casual and classy or funky and fresh lol then you pick pieces, that reflect those two things and put them together. It's been so fun to experiment with! You should give it a try!

[@_inflection3209]

Love your Tips on occasion wear. I don't have any lol but if I need it, I'll definitely follow your advice about the separates ! That makes so much sense

[@jodyjackson5475]

Oh. I love that idea!! That makes sense for me😊

[@teresacarle294]

I’ve been using Open Wardrobe for a few months now and it makes being stylish so effortless. Mornings are busy and I used to try so many things on I would end up leaving the house in something that didn’t quite “do it” for me. Now I plan my outfit the night before and leave the house every day looking my best. And I love that the AI suggests new outfits for me - there are new combinations I wouldn’t have thought of.

[@kathyhandler5254]

love the whole slow fashion and shop your closet concepts. having said that, I love your black sandals in this video. help!

[@eileenchang2173]

Hi Alyssa , you nailed it - “hand me overs and guilt” and keeping those clothes that may not fit you now but you know you have chosen them for their quality and classic style! Keep the great advice coming! Thank you ! ❤️🇨🇦

[@AlyssaBeltempo]

So glad you liked those tips Eileen! xx

[@billycaldwell6531]

You always make me smile when you model your clothes! Always an added little jig!! So much fun 🥰❤️

[@marilyndoering2501]

Such practical and useful tips Alyssa! I do like occasion wear but keep them all together in one back section of my closet and only go there when I need them. And I also pull pieces that no longer fit me (too tight) but are high quality classic pieces and hang them in a garment box in the basement. And occasionally my adult daughter will browse and ‘shop’ for herself! I don’t like pulling out something from my closet that no longer fits, it’s just frustrating! Another great video!

[@beccagiessing3890]

I have a similar app, and surprise before checking out of my online shopping bag, I was able to see that I had already purchased needed sweaters last summer on clearance. Was a booth to purchase similar items at a higher cost. These apps really help us be more aware.

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

My mom has sooooo many old wedding guest outfits that were just taking up valuable real estate in her closet I suggested she store these items with me, so that she would be able to create space in her wardrobe for her daily staples and a few key statement pieces

[@pinkroses135]

I don't care if I'm a bride, guest, wherever, whatever, I'm wearing a mauve dress lol. I think it's best to pick a wow color for you and incorporate that into your formal wear to use again and again. Keeping close to your day to day style/cut vs a fantasy self. Yes! Dressing for yourself! You said it.

[@janetgraham444]

So nice to see an article about you in Insider. Way to spread the word about slow fashion! This video was quite helpful as well.

I LOVE the open wardrobe app!!! I have totally revamped & digitized my closet, I got rid of things I don't wear anymore, and fewer but matching pieces give me so many more options than just a room full of 'stuff'. Getting dressed is so much easier & faster now, and more fun ;)

[@katem3961]

I love open wardrobe, it made me realise just how much clothing I actually have, to be honest, too much. Especially when I'm more than happy to outfit repeat. Thanks Alyssa 😊

[@zabindhanji]

Thank you for this video. I am currently embarking on a 'no shopping' month while paying down my credit card balance. I have so many pieces in my wardrobe, and definitely feel that I am underutilizing many of them. Your suggestions will assist me in reimagining my wardrobe while having fun honing in on my 'three words'. Thank you.

[@teresacarle294]

🔨 You nailed it with your comprehensive list of challenges, & how they can make your overall wardobe disjointed. 🤗 Probably spent a lifetime focused on Occasion Dressing. 🤔Maybe not exclusively for 💲expensive special social outings as you've detailed here, but def sourced outfits with precise activities in mind. Clothing specifically ear marked for corporate work, dates, church, casual play, lounging, sport, etc. Know my closet still doesn't have 💯% cohesion, but it's improving thanks to fashion influencers like yourself who are helping me refine my overall style. Training me how to maximize cost per wear by mixing high/low pieces from my different categories in more creative ways. Choosing clothing that will serve a wider variety of purposes. 😉Never more appreciative to have had extra space to store clothing. Always found that seasonal rotation is a smart way to freshen my closet. ⏳️Plus, as an hourglass, it's been tricky to find clothing that fits my extreme proportions w/o add'l tailoring. So I often bought duplicates in different colors. Having fluctuated ⬆️up & down⬇️ in weight later in life, I've never been so grateful to have retained both smaller & larger sized clothing. It allowed me to shop my closet, esp. helpful in financially lean times too. 😁Truly thankful to have found style tricks to reduce larger items when needed too. I wouldn't deliberately shop oversized, but I don't mind them. Once I feel confident about my weight stability & maintenance, I'll either get some of the higher quality things tailored or pass them on. 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)

[@kathysteele3071]

I have a very large closet and already isolate my special occasion clothes but ai need to see if they match two of my descriptors. Your comment to dress for ME and not the occasion will really help me decide what to wear next time. So great to get a surprise Wednesday video. 👏

[@KariJYoung]

Ohhhhhhh! The hand me overs from my family!!! I am 5' 9" and both my mom and my sister are a lot shorter than me... The guilt is real sometimes! Today, I thank them for the clothes and then promptly put them in the Goodwill/Thrift store bag and consider it a favor that I am taking the clothes they no longer want to the thrift store. 😁😇

[@anaalves3658]

😂😂😂 that's hilarious that they are not the same size as you but keep giving their clothes 😂. Just be honest with them, they might know someone that could actually use the clothes, but are not giving it to them because they thought of you first, which is sweet, but misguided 😊

[@bethchuck7851]

Just downloaded Open Wardrobe - awesome!!

[@janiegolden5338]

Haha...ha... Mia Cara Alyssa, I really feel that you are reading my mind... I am now taking some "unique" pieces out of my regular closet, and put them into my other "exotic" clothing closet. Now my closet looks more peaceful with the correct orders (colors, styles and etc.). Grazie mille 😄

[@tanyaeve9498]

The occasion wear and classic pieces are the things that get me. They often don't fit my style and it's taken me a while to learn to filter it through my own style and find "my" own twist on a piece. For instance, I really don't do white trainers or jeans, but somehow grey trainers or jeans feel just fine.

[@dorisporis8]

I agree with all! I recall helping a friend go through her closet for her season and time and use. We got rid of so much and all she needed was one vanilla colored blouse and a light in her closet! She felt so ready to put her outfits together and has learned so much over time and feel so much more confidence now. For me? I appreciate Alyssa's tips for weeding out and not being afraid to let go of my too-full closet! I hope to really concentrate on the three words for me and then apply it to what I have and let the other clothes find out for whom they are best! Thank you so much.

[@sharonbrinders1224]

Oh Alyssa, if only I got to see this video 2 months ago, especially the occasion wear purchase tips...would have saved me some pennies. .lol Love the idea of keeping the occasion wear separate in another closet. ..really great advice given, thank you.

[@wendielocke]

Great video! Thank you! A little tip - if you can't isolate some of your clothes in a different place, use a full length zipped dress storage bag, so that you can still hang it in the wardrobe, but it can contain your items that you want to isolate.

[@veronicadowney6604]

Nailed it with the special occasion outfits. I am in that situation right now, struggling to find an outfit for a wedding and looking for alternatives .

[@thatgirlnetty5308]

Love the white skirt, it's me when I was younger. You have no idea when I saw you wear it my vision opened. Rent is a great option or I can't remember the movie but the woman that made the gown from the drapes (just kidding).. Those black pants can really me dressed up, I love them. I could not believe how much a scarf really brings out your outfit. I wore a little scarf tied in my hair and got all these comments, who knew. It's all because of you and what you share with us. You really are a gem and help more than you know. Thank you!

[@comealongcomealong4480]

@That Girl Netty The character Scarlett O'Hara in classic movie 'Gone With The Wind'. The description of turning curtain fabric into a gown was far more creative and fun in the book. Of course, Julie Andrews in 'The Sound of Music' had matching play outfits made for the Von Trapp children from patterned curtain fabric. Their father was slightly appalled! Poor darlings only had best clothes - nothing to ride bikes or horse around in.

[@thatswhatisaidCA]

This was fun, thank you. My problem (not really) is I have these fantasy images of myself when I travel (i.e. Greece? A long billowy dramatic dress for a photo. Mexico? Beige and bright colours shorts and tops and hats i don't wear at home...). Quite often they don't translate well when I get back home and barely wear them again... OR (2) I think I'm clever with a small travel wardrobe but when i get there the atmosphere or weather is different than i expected and i only have a couple of things that are "appropriate" and i have to "make do" (maybe shop there, which is fun too) when I expected that i killed it (ouch, my poor ego). 😄

[@jonettedecamp408]

Alyssa, today's video is excellent as the information you share is so pertinent for me and I'm sure many others who save those "goal weight" clothes. Placing "special event" clothing in a separate location is brilliant. I have so many "hand me overs" that I NEVER wear but feel guilty donating them so ultimately I will be clearing out many items that make my closet chaotic. Thank you so much for the great ideas!

Isn’t that tulle skirt sweet! I have seen those apps. But not quite ready to app yet! Occasion wear….good idea to keep it in the “spare” section or closet. I do lend stuff! I have had some magpie purchases but they have been for real special times. I have rehomed them if I grew out of them! One was a gold Ghost dress, I wore for our big bash millennium party. I do have some choir black +/- white items. I wore school uniforms handed down from my cousins who went to Catholic school. They were not cool when I went to school. They are cooler and preppie now but not back in the day! Always enjoy. Gotta find something to do girlie lunch Friday to go with my green loafers! Fun!

I use My Closet. I find it useful to record outfits that work well, and outfits that work in theory, but not when I put them on. Also, by recording outfits worn in the calendar I can see which I really wear, and remind myself to try other combinations. I keep various sections for what is stored, and what I need to review and get rid of. It's easier working visually than doing it on a spreadsheet or paper, just time consuming photographing everything at the beginning.

[@marissacal29]

I had to come back to say how much I LOVE the Open Wardrobe app. It has been so fun and inspiring to have my items available digitally in one place where I can "try out" different ideas.
