How to Organize Your Outfits

For me, I only wear half the clothes in my closet, and I'm always keeping track mentally so I don't wear the same thing in one week.. This method I made will make it easier!

Step 1 of 22

The first thing you want to do is figure out the clothing items you wear the most. For me, I don't wear half my closet.. There are only a few items I wear on a day to day basis.

Step 2 of 22
Label your paper "clothing articles" or whatever you want... I also categorized mine

This is my "example shirt"

Just describe the shirt like this...

My everyday outfits include thigh high socks. (ik, I have a crazy style) If there is anything you wear daily include it. U can include shoes but I just wear Converse everyday so I didn't

Step 8 of 22

The next step will make organizing your outfits easier. I invented a sort of "code" for every item of clothing... Don't worry, it's nothing hard and u don't have to memorize anything

Step 9 of 22

For tops, the beginning of the "code" is 1, bottoms is 2, and for me, socks are 3 (u can make shoes 3 or jewelry or whatever you want. If u have more than three categories, then just go to 4)

Step 10 of 22
Write down the 1 on the same line as the clothing item

Write down the 1 on the same line as the clothing item

Step 11 of 22
Write down the letters of the colors of the shirt (purple and gray for me).. If it has a bunch of colors just write the main ones... Or u could put an M or something for "multicolor"

Step 12 of 22
Describe the pattern (striped)

Step 13 of 22
I abbreviated SH for shirt, but u can abbreviate however u want to... So there's the finished code for that item of clothing!

Label another page "outfits" (u can do it on the same paper as before, but I ran out of room and didn't want to use the back)

Step 19 of 22
I made 20 outfits with my clothes. I can probably make more but I will do that later. Your paper should look like this.

I just made a card like this so I can write the number of the outfit I'm going to wear in the box...

Step 21 of 22

And that's it! I know it seems really complicated and long, but trust me, it's not. This way u don't have to worry about wearing the same thing (outfit or shirt) twice in a week!

If anyone has any questions or wants to know where I got something just comment... Thanks for watching!!
