I am just back from my summer holidays and emptying my suitcase. I’m sorting through my clothes and deciding what I can put away until next year and what I may still need. And with the unpredictable weather this week, I’m  thinking about organising some Autumn clothes just in case.

September is the perfect time to go through your wardrobe, declutter and get it organised for the season ahead. Over the next few weeks, I’d love to share with you my tips for getting organised.

So, this week let’s start with sorting your summer wardrobe.

So, this week let’s start with sorting your summer wardrobe

#1 Clear Space In Your wardrobe
Do you have summer clothes that you didn’t wear this Summer at all? Are there any clothes you don’t love how they look on you or how they make you feel? Did you buy new clothes to replace old ones? Then now is the time to go through all of your summer clothes and be ruthless. Do you love it? Do you feel fabulous wearing it? If not, donate or sell them. Get rid of the clothes your aren’t wearing.

#2 Repair
Go through your clothes that you wish to keep. Do any need laundered, dry cleaned or repaired? Do that now before you pack them away so that they are in tip top condition when the weather warms up next year.

#3 Pack Away Your Beachwear
I treated myself to a few new bikini’s this holiday but I’m not going to need them until next summer. I have a swimsuit for the swimming pool so the rest can be packed away. Along with flip flops, beach cover-ups and shorts.

#4 Vacuum Pack Your Dresses And T-Shirts
I love vacuum bags for storing clothes and keeping them clean and fresh. Invest in a couple and keep all your clothes neat and tidy in one place. And it will be easy to find all your summer stuff next year.

#5 Clean And Pack Away Sandals
Clean and repair your summer shoes and sandals and put away in shoe dust bags. Take care of your footwear to enjoy wearing them for many years to come.
