5 Tips for a Successful Closet Cleanout + Shop My Closet

It’s hard to believe that we’re already on the cusp of fall. I’ve had my coffee table stacked high with various September issues for a couple of weeks now, and while I’m trying my best not to wish summer away, I can’t wait for the shift in style that a new season offers, especially autumn. Layers, boots, and plenty of texture -- after a long, epically hot summer of one-piece dressing and sandals, fall makes the act of getting dressed feel fun again. If you’re like me and pack away your off-season clothes (a smart decision if you’re also dealing with a too-tiny closet), the cooling days of late August mean it’s almost time for the Great Closet Switchover; I’ll soon be rummaging through bins and boxes in search of the sweaters, jackets, flannels and boots I boxed up months ago, and making a list of the must-haves I hope to buy new or used for the months ahead. The transition into a new time of year also happens to be the perfect time to plan a major closet cleanout.

Over the past several months I've been working to streamline my closet (really hesitant to use to work "curate" here), doing my best to pare down to the pieces I truly love and that speak to where my style is at this point in my life. With autumn almost here, it's time to detox my closet once again. If you've been wondering how to successfully clean out your own closet, today I'm sharing my process and 5 tips for a successful closet cleanout over on the Poshmark blog.

I'm also excited to announce that I'm hosting a Posh Party tonight at 7 pm PST where you can shop my closet as well as my Poshmark favorites. Simply sign on and join the fun at 7 PM. Hope to see you there!
