Wardrobe Building Tools

One of the best (and least expensive!) ways to start creating your well-rounded wardrobe is to take stock of and use what you already have. You need to know your starting point – what you already have, what you wear the most of, what you know you never reach for, etc. – before attempting to declutter or add anything new.
These free wardrobe building tools are a great way to get you started. They help pinpoint any gaps your wardrobe might have, help determine which items you should keep or let go of, and help keep you from making unnecessary or impulse purchases that don’t positively contribute to your wardrobe.
Acutely aware that your wardrobe is filled with mainly one category (e.g., sweatshirts, t-shirts, or leggings) and want to balance it out a bit more?
Use this inventory list to take stock of everything in your wardrobe to help determine which items you have in abundance and which ones might be scarce.

it is instead about knowing when, where, and how to utilize your collection.”
