Our Expert Advice for Simple & Effective Seasonal Wardrobe Swaps

Living in Florida, we don’t get very many seasons. There are no extreme weather changes, but we do still have a distinct summer and winter.  There is something fresh about organizing and rotating your wardrobe each season, even if that is only twice a year. Jackets, booties, and sweaters can be brought out for winter, and your beach dresses for the summer. I know it can get overwhelming to switch over to declutter and organize your seasonal wardrobe, but read on for some simple tips to help. 

Step 1: Store Last Season’s Clothing Safely

Because our winters are short, most of us down south don’t have a full wardrobe to swap out, but there are just one to two smaller bins of “winter” clothes and “summer” clothes that are not worn all year.  I like to simply store my clothes in a closed bin on the top of the closet. That way its easy to reach if needed, and it doesn’t feel like a major job to get it out from the garage. I definitely recommend closed bins to prevent dust from settling on the clothes. 

Step 2: Pull the Present Season Out into your Closet

No need to have two sets of bins, simply swap out last season’s clothes with this season’s clothes using the same container. When taking out your clothes, before hanging it up, its the perfect time to declutter and organize and go through the clothes to see if anything is ripped, stained, doesn’t fit, or is just no longer your style. 

Step 3: Organize the Closet Before Filling

 When changing up your closet’s clothing, organize the closet by type. Put the dresses together, skirts and pants together, accessories with each other.  Change all your hangers to be matching, it makes a massive difference visually! Then your closet is not only current, but also organized. It will make getting dressed in the morning a breeze!

Step 4: Don’t Skip Over the Shoes & Accessories

 It’s easy to forget to swap your shoes and accessories too, but they are a big part of your wardrobe! Boots keep their shape best with boot inserts, while flip flops are perfect just the way are. Go through your shoes and accessories and see what is the best way to organize them.
