January and February are great months to push the reset button with your wardrobe. Whether in the mood to clearance shop, or hit your closet hard looking for underappreciated items, this is a great time of year to get organized. So, after you get all of your holiday decorations put away, scroll through the possibilities:
Closet – Don’t fight your way through a messy closet another day. Pull everything out, and what goes back in are your #1 pieces that you can wear proudly.
Wouldn’t it be nice to get out the door fast looking pulled together every morning? If you need a little encouragement call Lynne.
5 things to take out now!
Beat up boots
Torn, distressed jeans
Stained silk blouses
Pilled sweaters
Poorly fitting coats
Styling what you own – Get more creative with how to mix up what you already love to wear. You can really expand your wardrobe without purchasing anything new.
Clearance Shopping – 80%-off signs scream out as you surf on-line or shop at the mall. Don’t feel pressure to shop now just for the bargains. Make a list of items you have been wanting to add to your wardrobe before you buy. Think about the new item as a replacement piece, not an add on.

Finally, if you prefer to get out and about, try the Opitz Outlet on Excelsior Blvd in St. Louis Park. This is a fun place to hunt, especially for shoes, purses, and dresses (and menswear!). A stroll through the new Zara store at the Mall of America will give you a glimpse into Spring trends.
