One of my favourite quotes. “Your clothes are your roommates; except you’re paying their rent”

For those of us who struggle to find things that fit (and look flattering... 🦄 territory) it can be esteem crushing to walk out of store after store empty handed. I found myself buying stuff just to avoid feeling like a shopping failure. I finally flipped the script in my head that I wasn't the problem, instead shopping as a treasure hunt and I was only content with a perfect piece. My closet is now stocked with just pieces that I love and look great on me.

This is the BEST closet decluttering strategy video I’ve seen on KZread! Thanks so much. 😊 The flow chart is EPIC!!! 😱 One additional hack if you just can’t seem to find time to declutter your whole closet because it’s currently overflowing with clothes is to just work on it for 15 minutes EVERY DAY (or a different increment of time that’s manageable). I’ve accomplished so much by doing this!

I did this several months ago and realized the majority of my wardrobe is for work, where I spend the majorityof my day. Thinking about it in practical terms has stopped me from buying new non work clothes because I barely wear what I already own.

This is very helpful. When I lost my home and was packing up my clothes, I had clothes that I’ve had for 5+ years that still had tags on them. I definitely wasn’t going to wear them so I donated them to my church. They were able to sell them and get good money because it was for the church and charity. I wouldn’t have been able to get the money they did, I didn’t pay that much for most of the clothes. I bought them when a store was closing, they were all a couple dollars. It felt good knowing I was helping my church when I couldn’t give them actual cash, money.

I'm sorry you lost your home. That's happened to me before and it's awful. I hope things are stable again for you.

I started folding my clothes the KonMari way and it takes more thought and care. In turn, some things I realized I did’t want to spend that much time on because I didn’t love the item, so it allowed me to purge easier. You had some really great tips. I’m motivated to go purge more!

I sometimes use the “second closet” idea to help me decide on pieces to keep! If I can’t fully decide what to do with a piece, I’ll store it away and in a month or so if I haven’t thought about the pieces I stored away I’ll get rid of them and if I was looking for a piece I stored away I’ll bring it back into my closet

I like that you have your priorities straight, "But First, Coffee".

Watched the first 6 mins and my closet life changed. Watched so many decluttering videos and you made everything so clear.

You have the best organizing and decluttering videos EVER, while being realistic and down to earth. Love your channel so much! I really like the one in, one out too! Great idea! Thank you!

With COVID, I am working from home with no end in sight. I found that I needed to invest in my loungewear category because I was wearing the same 5 shirts and pair of leggings. I packed up my professional attire and will pull it out when it’s time to go back to the office. Having a “second wardrobe” has been life changing!

Great video!!! The one thing I’d add to the “one in, one out” rule is that we should really be more conscious of the environment and shop consignment stores. They’re great because you can bring in an item to sell to the store while buying another piece, all while reducing impact on the earth!!!

I love how approachable your lifestyle is,I’m tired of watching all of those huge dressing rooms being organized in fancy mansions!

Yep, I have ‘funeral clothes’ esp when you get older.

I’ve had clothes in my closet that I owned for 3 years and never wore. I’m glad I didn’t get rid of them bc I finally wore them! 😂 I just had to wait until I became a skirt person to wear some of my cute, comfy bodysuits. I know this isn’t practical for some people but I at least know that I’ll wear them and actually do. However, I’m trying to start wearing those clothes more often by flipping the hangers the opposite way so I’m more inclined to grab those since I know I haven’t worn them since the last time I adjusted my hangers

This is the absolute best and easiest video I’ve ever watched on purging my closet. Every other video or “style” on purging has just made me more overwhelmed. Thank you so much!

Ive been on a purging kick the last few months & I went thru my closet & got rid of like 3 big trash bags of clothes & yet when I look in my closet its still mostly “i might need it” clothes. Thank you for breaking it down. It makes much more sense &I feel I will be able to get my closet organized efficiently now. Also just a tip to organizing the dresser drawers is to stack them from back to front instead of bottom to top. That way you see everything in the drawer & dont have to sift thru all the clothes and get them all shuffled &unfolded. 👍🏻 I started doing this years ago & its saved me a lot of headache

I feel like you just put into perspective three years of my life lol. Thank you

My favorite quote from the video was " If I saw this hanging in the store, would I want to buy it?" That one always helps me power through my purging. Excellent advice, Kali! If you get into a purging mood, the minimal mom youtube channel has some amazing motivation and purging tips as well.

Ugh. Purging a closet during a pandemic when I never leave my house is hard!

I've watched a ridiculous amount of minimalist/closet decluttering content over the past year or so, but if I was to point to THE most all-in-one helpful, approachable video for closet decluttering, I'd point to this one. Brava, my friend!

I think this kind of goes along with decluttering underwear. Im pretty sure we all have those categories of new/everyday, sexy/date night, comfy/lounge, and period panties. Way too many options had my dresser drawer stuffed to the max!

Yes!! As a family of five, once we got our clothes streamlined, my biggest key has been to purge as we do laundry. It keeps things manageable. And at the end of a season, as I'm changing out the clothes, I double check that what is coming into play fits and what is being stored will (most likely) fit the next time we need it. Great tips!!!

I love your uploads and have just subscribed. My second wardrobe, I wanted to share, is a suitcase that slides under the spare bed. It works for me and might work for someone else too. Thanks for your help Kallie xx

This is the best video I’ve seen about decluttering your closet - and I’ve seen A LOT! I like the categorizing portion before you even start!! A must see video for anyone who is looking for some direction.

The decision process for defining your style and purging were so much better than any other process I have seen. Thank you.

I discovered you a few days ago and I just feel it has changed my life for the better 🥺. I’m already pretty organized but seeing there are things that I can improve AND you give me lists and flow charts 😭😭 it’s all my OCD dreams come true

This year I decided to embrace my athleisure preferences. I stay at home and homeschool my kids (since before covid 😆) and I workout 5 days a week and take our dog for walks usually twice a day. Athleisure can get a bad rap, but it really makes the most sense for me! I probably have the least amount of clothes I've ever had now.

I love that you talk about the continued purge. I find myself looking into my closet more often and getting rid of more but I wasn't sure if I was overdoing the curated closet thing

Yes 🙌🏻 feeling overwhelmed but ready to commit. I’m loving the “one in one out” rule... and how it affects choices in future purchases. Starting. Now. And the storing/removing of seasonal clothes to simplify so helpful. It’s difficult to purge but I’m finding it’s getting easier with practice plus maybe donating will give items new life.

I'm 9 months pregnant, so my closet has exploded between my regular clothes and the maternity clothes. I'm watching this in anticipation of purging maternity clothes and getting my closet back to normal! Although I don't know exactly what my new size will be, so I don't want to purge too much now.

I have so many cute clothes but thanks to 2020 I've basically been living in leggings and hoodies.

Another one that I've adopted that I LOVE is I have a basket where all the socks that don't have a match go. Once I finish all the laundry in the house if that sock still doesn't have a match it goes in the trash. This helps SOOO much with how many random socks end up in mine and my husband's dresser.

This came just in time! I’m decluttering this weekend. I love this method over every other one I’ve seen! Thank you!

I love how you edit videos. You make them very entertaining and sometimes even funny. Based on your purging rules I can get rid of everything. I havent left the house much in over a year. I stick to pajamas or sweat pants. I feel like even when I will be back into the world, everything I have will be out of style.

My wardrobe is exactly how she described it. My husband is always surprised how I dress so quickly each time.

As someone who has adhd and holds on to too clutter easily (converting to minimalism) its can be challenging to start a big project like this without structure. I loved your video but I have to say, my favorite part is when you mention the printable worksheets; as I've needed a system and a already made worksheet and meaningful structured system to follow is so helpful and appreciated! You are awesome!!!

I love how practical you are, and I love how well you teach. Thanks for the motivation. I just organized my closet and I still have way too much stuff. I needed this.

Thanks so much Kallie! This is very helpful and I love your closet. These are great things to remember. Even though I haven't bought any clothes in the past five years, I am always decluttering and purging. I enjoy seeing everything folded and organized. My main categories today are 1. Casual Everyday/Comfy/Clean lines 2. Work 2 the Max Items 3. Fancy & Pretty. 😎 And you are right about the second closet, I call it seasonal closet. Because I live in Rhode Island the weather changes every six months, so I switch the seasonal clothes. And for shoes I've gotten really good at cleaning them, polishing them (if it's leather), fixing them (if coming apart). Finally now I have seven Spring/Summer and seven Fall/Winter. Just grab the clothes, shoes, and my purse. And I'm ready to go. 😀

I’ve watched a lot of closet decluttering videos and this gave me new food for thought. Thanks for such great content and filming. Your fun to watch.

Such concrete and sound advice. The pre-purge assessment is the step I would think most people are missing, yet it makes so much sense!

I love everything you talked about because this exactly what I did when I purged my entire wardrobe and it’s how I do things now.

Very well done. Thank you! This is the best walk through on purging and organizing clothing that I've seen on KZread. A note on organizing by clothing type, I purchased a pack of plastic "do not disturb" door hangers to divide sections in my closet for each category of hanging items. They help keep my closet from getting jumbled after I worked so hard to organize it. Thank you for all your great content!

I love how you laid out this video. I plan to re-watch it numerous times and work through those handouts! Thanks for doing the hard work for me

Purging/ minimizing my clothes has been on my To Do list for so long and it just seemed like such a daunting task. Thank you for making this video and simplifying the whole process. I literally have an entire closet of clothes I rarely wear anymore. My main closet is super organized.

A year after having my 2nd child I decided it was time to clean out my wardrobe. So I took a photo of my OOTD for about a month. W/in that time I had a good idea of what I wore day to day. Also realized, and I think most people do, I basically wear a “ Capsule wardrobe”. This realization has really helped me purge and now keep a constant wardrobe. Also everone should have a 2nd or seasonal wardrobe. It’s helpful for those of us that experience all four seasons. I break mine into three winter, summer and fall/spring.

The most helpful closet organization video I’ve seen by far! Thank you!!

Kallie....you are brilliant. Your sense of humor is exceptional. I love how you speak and explain what you are saying. Thanks for all the work you put into your videos. It is not unnoticed, believe me.

Just the push I needed! I'm literally in the middle of purging my wardrobe and I was flagging lol. I agree so much with other comments - you're so informative and your videos so so useful and a big reason for that is the way you just talk about the topic and share your content with us (those sheets are insane prep thanks so much!?). With so many vids I feel the person just enjoy watching themselves too much, and therefore hyperexplain things like, I don't know, hangers and what donating is (real). Thanks so much for the push and all the work behind your videos. X

Personally something that helps me 'cope' with getting rid of clothes is having pictures. It works more when going through my kids' clothes as they outgrow something. Do I pack this away for future kids or sell/donate? Well if I have a pic of them in the outfit then it makes it easier for me to say goodbye to it. If the outfit has a memory attached I have the picture to help trigger it.

Thats very true. My mom kept every piece of clothing we took formal pictures in and I see it both ways. One thing that helps me is that I try to find specific people to give the clothes to for free who I know will enjoy and use it. Like I had some really nice north face jackets that I bought going into college but they don't fit now. Not because I am fat or anything but my body at 24 is not what my body was at 18 and that ok but it was so hard for me to give those up but when my cousin said her kids were in need of a jackets and things were tight and mine were the right size, having them go to a home where they could 'live' again helped me move on from them

Also, it's okay to say, "no, thank you; let's donate them somewhere." I've had to do that with my mom and her clothes that have stretched too much due to washing. I outweigh her by like 10-15 lbs. Otherwise you'll spend the rest of your life as their clothing purgatory.
