Organize Your Lingerie-untangle your underthings
February 17th, 2010
Do you have a drawer full of old, stretched out, too small, out of date underwear? Not only is this a passion killer but it won’t do much for your self confidence either.
Here’s 4 easy steps to untangle your underwear
1. Toss items that are old or don’t fit–even if they WERE a gift. Try on all your bras and panties in front of a mirror. Fit is important and our bodies are always changing. If they don’t work, toss them.
2. Know what you need–generally speaking the average person needs at least three everyday bras to wear beneath most tops, two matching your skin tone for layering under sheer blouses, one black for dark items, one lacy or embellished bra for special occasions, and one supportive strapless option. For panties, 10 of your favorite pairs will do.
3. Find a good place for them–Sort lingerie by color, silhouette or function. Keep go to items in the front of your drawer, everything else in the back.
4. Separate out your workhorses and non-lingerie–Devote one area or drawer to items which deliver support i.e. spanx, short slip, convertible bra. Store sports bras with exercise clothes. Keep chemises on padded hangers in your closet so when you’re in the mood to wear them, you won’t have to worry about ironing.
Now you’re ready to feel and look comfortable in your clothes not to mention your own skin.
