This is a great way to put similar types of clothing together. Think about it like your clothes are family and all of your jeans want to be next to each other. They also don’t want to be too far away from the shorts. It is the same for in your closet with your dresses, suits or skirts. The main point is that your clothing types are all together in one section. This provides you with a clear game plan, giving your eyes an easy view of what you desire to wear.

2. Colour

Taking categorizing to the next level is sorting your clothing by colour. If you haven’t done so yet, this is a huge trend and has become very popular with the book and Netflix show – The Home Edit.

This is especially great for those who have more than black or their one favourite colour or white in their closets or drawers. If you are rainbow-lious, then why not have your closet or drawers line up to resemble your rainbow fashion line.

3. Occasion

Do you like to put out your outfits together ahead of time? Then why not do the same for your clothing. Put together pieces of clothing that go well together. Try assembling outfits within your closet instead of single garments on hangers. When you do this ahead of time, you are making your life easier when you go into your closet. Simply grab a hanger and go.

5. Divided into Seasons

One of the most popular ways to organize your clothes is by season. This involves only keeping what you will wear during the season out and the rest neatly packed away. Not only will it give your closet more space but it is also a great way to declutter as you unpack for the next season.

Living in a small space? Then this is especially great if you live in an apartment or have a very small closet. Everything you will need for winter, fall, spring or summer will be in view during that season and the rest will wait for their debut.

    These are all great tips! It’s also great to know which items should be hung and which should be folded. Knits like t-shirts and sweaters do better when folded, while easily-wrinkled items generally do better hung.
