If not, you should probably set aside some time to do it anyway because the new year is a\u00a0perfect\u00a0time to get organized and purge your wardrobe of unnecessary items.<\/p>\n<p>We know it can be a big undertaking, so we\u2019ve come up with a few questions to help you decide what should stay in your closet and what needs to go.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Would I be embarrassed if an ex-friend saw me in this?<\/strong> If the answer is yes, toss it. You should always be rockin&#8217; clothing pieces that make you feel confident! And you know what they say&#8230;dress as if you&#8217;re going to meet your worst enemy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can I pair this with at least three other items?<\/strong>\u00a0If you can, then it\u2019s a keeper. But if it only matches only one or two items in your closet, answer the other questions on this list to determine if you should hold onto it.<\/p>\n<p><strong> Is this still my personal style?<\/strong>\u00a0Yes? Then you should\u00a0feel good about keeping it. No? Time to say boy, bye!<\/p>\n<p><strong> Am I really going to tailor\/hem\u00a0this?<\/strong>\u00a0You might have an item you&#8217;re holding onto yet never wear\u00a0because it needs hemming or taking in&#8230;but if you aren\u2019t getting them fixed or wearing them, then the item is\u00a0just taking up precious real estate. Donate these items\u00a0and purchase\u00a0a piece that actually fits.<\/p>\n<p><strong> Does this item bring me joy?<\/strong> That&#8217;s right! The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.onekingslane.com\/live-love-home\/marie-kondo-book-declutter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marie Kondo method<\/a> exists for a reason. This question trumps all the others, because if your clothes don\u2019t make you happy, then what\u2019s the point of even keeping\u00a0them?<\/p>\n<p>xx, The FabFitFun Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":"Did you make a New Year\u2019s Resolution to clean out your closet?
