New Season Style Resolutions

Prepare yourself for the new season and get ready for 2017 to be the year of great style with a few simple resolutions you should be making now!

Have regular clear outs
Keeping your wardrobe organised has become something of a trend just lately, so regular charity donations, and binning those pieces you know have seen better days, will help you on your way to a more streamlined closet this year, saving you time in the morning when deciding what to wear and saving you money too (come on, admit it, you've bought more than one almost identical item due to forgetting the first existed in your overpacked wardrobe!). Be brutal, if it doesn't make you feel great then get rid! If you're struggling to be quite so ruthless, try the hanger trick – place all of your hangers in one direction and in three months evaluate how many have been turned to discover what you’ve actually worn.

 

Love it? Then make it work for you!
We've all been there, staring longingly at a gorgeous piece of clothing with only one thought going through your mind - "I could never pull that off!". 2017 is the year to be fearless, if you love it, wear it! Maybe you've fallen for a sportswear inspired jacket but have never worn anything like it and the matching trousers/trainers look on the mannequin is too much for you - isolate the piece you like, visualise your wardrobe and think of other ways to wear it. Most pieces are so versatile, there's a million ways to style them. If you're struggling, you can always speak to the lovely Gemini Stylists on the phone (01789 266894) or in store. There’s definitely a happy medium to be struck – whether it’s wearing more colour or embracing patterns, break your own rules for a more diverse and exciting day-to-day look.

 

Take care of your clothes
Whether you’re guilty of flinging worn-once clothes onto a pile in the corner of the room for days on end or simply don’t take notice of the 'dry clean only' label as much as you should, you’ll get a lot more out of the money you spend on your clothes if you focus on looking after the pieces you have. Fold investment pieces in tissue paper or keep your shoes organised in labelled boxes – whatever your bad habits, making just one small change could extend the life of your favourite items.
