Sometimes, it’s hard not to think that “wardrobe improvement” doesn’t include shopping for a new piece to add to your closet. But, you may not always have the budget, the time, or even the option of shopping, and there are many other ways to improve your wardrobe without spending a lot of money.
11 things you can do from home to improve your wardrobe almost immediately.
0:00 Improve your wardrobe strategically
00:36 1. Figure out your own personal style “values”
Have you ever made a purchase that you regretted? Consider why that happened, and how you’re going to avoid it in the future to reduce waste and frustration with your closet.
04:34 2. Get more use out of what you already own by making new combinations
Challenge yourself to create new outfits. Start with pieces you like but don’t wear very often but still like, and consider why. Then, start making new outfit combinations.
05:40 3. Identify your own wardrobe Achilles heel & make a plan to tackle it.
Everyone has weaknesses with regards to their wardrobe. My weakness is that I like wearing what’s on top of the pile. Also, my wardrobe is spread out all over my house and studio, so I don’t always know where everything is in my wardrobe. While our closet renovation is now on hold, I know that I can make more of an effort to take more time and not just grab the thing that’s available to me right now.
06:37 4. Hand wash your wool & cashmere sweaters
Hand washing isn’t necessary for wool & cashmere. However, it is one of the most gentle options for your investment pieces.
07:22 5. Properly rotate & store your off-season clothes
We all know we should store our clothes, we just don’t make time for it. Even if you don’t have the perfect storage solutions, it’s still worth putting your winter clothes in the back of the closet when you don’t need them.
08:15 6. Use a clothes brush to brush off your heavy woolens & suit jackets
Take the time to use a clothes brush to thoroughly go over your overcoats, suits, and jackets. This tool is one of the most important you can have to maintain your heavy and structured garments, because unlike.
09:30 7. Make small clothing repairs yourself
We all have a travel sewing kit gathering dust somewhere. So now is the time to put all your clothes to use by fixing the little holes and loose buttons on your shirts, jackets, and pants.
10:12 8. Iron all your shirts
Some people find it very soothing! For those of us who put off this task but still love a crisp, freshly ironed shirt, then we suggest you get out your ironing board.
11:05 9. Sort out clothes that need alterations and list the changes you eventually want to make
We inevitably all have some clothing in our closets that need alterations. When you have some time to dedicate to your wardrobe, go through and finally separate out all the things that need repairs you can’t make and alterations.
12:05 10. Polish your shoe collection
Our friend Preston Soto at the Elegant Oxford has some excellent tutorials on shoe polishing. So we suggest you use some of your home time to go down the rabbit hole of shoe care. Good shoes are expensive, so learning how to polish them properly is a skill worth learning!
12:23 Identify what tools you need to better maintain your wardrobe
It’s worth knowing what you need to keep your wardrobe in the best shape possible.
