Tuck these away and out of easy reach; they’ll often be fancy and formal items, so you’ll still remember they’re there, but since you won’t need them often you can organise your wardrobe to keep them away from your main closet view.
When you're organising your wardrobe, keep key items at the forefront with the Chanel Triple Wardrobe.
6. Keep curating
Congratulations, your wardrobe is fabulously organised and under control! Now here comes the hard part: keeping it clean and tidy. Try creating a method for learning which clothes you do and don’t wear over time. For example, flip your hangers so the hooks are facing the back of your wardrobe. Then, each time you wear an item of clothing, turn the hanger back around. After six months or a year, you’ll know which clothes have never been worn.
Furthermore, when you’re buying new clothes, think about how they’ll fit in with the pieces you already own. Now that you’ve finished organising your wardrobe, you should have a good idea of what you have, so you can decide if your new purchases match the vibe.
You can also choose a specific day each week to go through your wardrobe and keep on top of any built-up clutter. For example, if you do your weekly tidy on a Sunday, then you’re off to a fresh start for the week ahead!

Bonus: a few extra wardrobe organisation ideas
7. Put a box or basket on the floor of your wardrobe marked for donation. If you find yourself looking through your closet and noticing an item of clothing you realise you have no interest in wearing again, drop it into the box. Then, next time you’re doing a closet clearout, you’ll already have these pieces separated out.
8. Speaking of donations, choosing where you’ll give your unwanted-but-still-wearable clothes can make it easier to say goodbye. Sure, you can just donate to your nearest charity shop, but with so many options around Ireland for stores supporting various organisations, picking one that benefits a cause near to your heart can turn tough decisions into feel-good choices.
9.
Good Housekeeping recommends a ‘holiday box’ of clothes you’ll only wear when you’re heading off on a sunny getaway. Your strappy sandals and bold bikinis probably aren’t well-suited for everyday Irish weather, so store them away in a different box and get an extra thrill of excitement every time you take it out to prepare for a trip away.
10. Use sliding doors to save space. If you’re working within a small bedroom, a sliding door wardrobe lets you choose a larger closet option without taking up too much additional floor space, because you don’t need room for the doors to open outward.
The stunning Abigail sliding wardrobe comes in a variety of sizes and colours, ideal for organising your wardrobe in any type of room.
