One item at a time, and you will do great! Pull out and put ALL your black blazers together on rack and start <i>THERE.</i>&nbsp;Attack it. Choose the best, and the ones that make you feel fab. Pass on the rest.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066214 Fri, 04 Oct 2019 01:02:20 +0000 SarahD8 2066214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WELL DONE.

Glad to hear that this was a helpful process for you :)&nbsp;</p> <p>I, like you, don't believe in spending a lot of money on jeans...all of my jeans are from the Gap or Banana Republic.They fit my needs fine and I'd rather spend my money elsewhere </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066186 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 20:57:05 +0000 Anonymous 2066186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Geez Angie, I wondered if maybe I had inadvertently killed you ! &nbsp;You are SO right though - it is the best feeling ever, and really wasn't a big job. &nbsp;My next project is my ridiculous blazer collection , and I'm already worried. Last year I accumulated a bunch of mid-level so-so black blazers to wear to my part-time job......and now we wear a uniform , so no need for all these Aritizia etc blazers. No idea how to approach this. I'll be reporting back over the weekend some time :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066150 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 17:14:59 +0000 kkards 2066150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i really need to learn the Kondo folding system...great job and nice collection of denim! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066147 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 16:30:47 +0000 fathenry 2066147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great denim collection.

It’s a fashion bliss in my book. Totally get you, on organizing front as well. Love both of your side stripe pairs. Would be happy to find a pair myself which excites me - both the stripe and the jean cut. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066138 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 15:04:57 +0000 Christina F. 2066138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy dance!

We are never too old to learn a new process or system.&nbsp;</p> <p>The only successful way forward with our wardrobes is to know what we have, how it fits, and how we currently feel about the item. You achieved that with your denim capsule and it's blasting brilliant :)</p> <p>Your denim collection looks on trend and great! Such fun tuxedo stripes! No more need for denim for a while <i>is a wonderful feeling</i>. (I feel the same way, btw). Enjoy it, and give yourself a big pat on the back!&nbsp;</p> <p>SOOOO FABULOUS!!!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066110 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 14:03:50 +0000 Anonymous 2066110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know, keeping track of what one has, and making sure there is no more in that collection that what you can wear really makes sense for me. I have no room for holding zones, and don't want them anyways. I had them in former house for years and they just became an excuse not to think about the clothes in them and really use them. &nbsp;I'm thrilled I have been label to find nice fitting and interesting jeans this year at and around the $100 price point (except for the Frame pair of course - ugh) . I'd rather spend my clothing dollars elsewhere, even though I do wear jeans a lot . &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066108 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 13:59:03 +0000 Bijou 2066108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it - your jean collection and how neat and tidy they look. I love these posts too, it makes me motivated to organise my closet. Your denim collection has so much variety and if you can get interesting jeans that fit and don't have to pay premium denim prices, then it is even better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066105 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 13:45:11 +0000 Janet 2066105@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic! I like these kinds of posts so indulge away. Great denim collection. Someday I would love to find a pair of side stripe jeans that doesn’t make a big stripey curve over my saddlebags, ugh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066088 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 11:59:00 +0000 RobinF 2066088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great collection of jeans! I really need an updated pair or two this year. I love the Kondo folding method. I reorganized all my drawers a few years ago and find it so much easier to see what I have.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066076 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 11:27:07 +0000 Anonymous 2066076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think attacking a wardrobe category by category is the best strategy. &nbsp;If I attempt to do my entire wardrobe at single time I am overwhelmed and give up after 15 minutes. &nbsp;</p> <p>I don't know if this will help you, but I broke my wardrobe down into <i><u>really small defined categories</u></i> that I could easily and successfully deal with. &nbsp;Each success fed the next one. &nbsp;It took me multiple weekends to get to the end but eventually I was quite pleased. &nbsp;</p> <p>I learned from Angie to edit and cull often (still on a category-by-category basis). &nbsp;It was an idea that I very much resisted, but now I review my wardrobe twice per year. &nbsp;No holding zone for me either. &nbsp;It either makes the cut or it doesn't. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1/page/2#post-2066067 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 09:25:05 +0000 Carla 2066067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are never too old to learn new things, Lisap. My 82 yo mother just read the Kondo book and did her whole closet. It took her a week, but she got it done! (Now she is going to tackle her books.). I really like your side stripe jeans in #5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1#post-2066062 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 08:41:27 +0000 Style Fan 2066062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great.&nbsp; I hang my denim except for my `house' pairs which get folded on a closet shelf (really are on the floor).&nbsp; Like others, I am loving your denim capsule.&nbsp; Lots of variety. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1#post-2066053 Thu, 03 Oct 2019 05:56:31 +0000 Jane 2066053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is so inspiring. I love the mix of jeans and styles you have, and how you have sorted through and set it out.

I don't know why but I need to know what every thing is when I see it. It is not like I order online or even buy new jeans! Love the side stripe details and interesting hems.

It's very soft and fuzzy and will probably pill pretty badly, but I'm treating it as an inexpensive trend piece.....which of course goes against everything I hate about the fashion industry. &nbsp;I'm contracting my values and am somewhat embarrassed about it. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-edit-and-kondo-getting-my-wardrobe-organized-part-1#post-2066009 Wed, 02 Oct 2019 22:59:37 +0000 cindysmith 2066009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice job!
