🪞 Wardrobe Calm Reset – A Slow Fashion Approach to 2024 (February 2024)
Hey loves,
Let’s be real — sometimes our wardrobes feel like cluttered chaos. Too many options, things we don’t wear, pieces that don’t feel like us anymore. That’s why our first step in The Year of Calm is the Wardrobe Calm Reset — a slow, intentional approach to curating clothes that bring you peace, confidence, and joy.
🌸 Step 1: Clear with Kindness
Pull everything out and look at it piece by piece. Instead of rushing, ask:
- Does this fit me comfortably?
- Do I feel calm and confident in it?
- Does it match the life I live now?
Anything that doesn’t get a “yes” can be sold, donated, or recycled. Think of it as giving your closet a fresh breath of air.
🌿 Step 2: Keep What Grounds You
This is where you start building your calm core wardrobe — versatile pieces in soothing tones like grey, beige, navy, sage, and blush. These colours mix and match effortlessly and instantly make outfits feel cohesive and serene.
✨ Step 3: Add Textures, Not Stress
Instead of chasing every trend, lean into fabrics that bring comfort:
- Soft knits for warmth and coziness
- Crisp cottons and linens for breathability
- Silky layers for a touch of elegance
Texture is where calm meets personality.
👜 Step 4: Mindful Shopping
Going forward, bring new pieces in slowly. Before buying, ask yourself:
- Will this mix with what I already own?
- Can I wear it at least 3 different ways?
- Does it fit the “calm” vibe I’m building?
If the answer is yes, then it belongs in your wardrobe reset.
💡 Final Thought
Your wardrobe should feel like a safe space — a collection of clothes that work for you. The Calm Reset isn’t about perfection; it’s about creating ease and joy every time you get dressed.
