## Questions about this video

Why is hanging multiple items on one hanger a bad idea?

Hanging multiple items on a single hanger causes the clothes at the bottom to wrinkle faster and often leads to those items being forgotten and worn less frequently.

How does mixing seasonal clothes in one closet affect wardrobe use?

Storing clothes for different seasons together creates clutter, makes it hard to find appropriate items, and can lead to unnecessary purchases because you think you lack clothes for the current season.

What is the benefit of categorizing clothes in your wardrobe?

Categorizing clothes by type and zoning them in your closet helps you quickly find and combine items, encourages outfit variety, and prevents habitual wearing of the same few pieces.

Speaker A

Hi everyone, and welcome to my channel. My name is Olesya. I am a personal stylist and creator of educational videos on how to choose clothes that suit not only your appearance but also your inner state. In this video, we are

00:13

Speaker A

going to talk about mistakes in storing things in a closet or a wardrobe. The size of your wardrobe or closet doesn't matter. I have been doing wardrobe edits for my clients for over 3 years now. And in almost every wardrobe, I

00:26

Speaker A

see the same storage mistakes that cause clothes to lose their appearance faster. That is, with improper storage, clothes can deform more quickly and lose their original look. But when we store things correctly, we extend the lifespan of these items. Improper

00:42

Speaker A

storage of things can also cause several other problems. For example, we might feel too lazy to get dressed because we open our wardrobe or closet, look at the mess inside, and a thought pops up: "I'll just grab something

00:54

Speaker A

familiar." In other words, due to improper storage, there can be chaos and clutter in our wardrobe, and we end up choosing the things we wear out of habit day after day, the ones we are 100% sure of. Another problem that

01:05

Speaker A

arises from improper storage is getting ready for a long time. Again, you open your closet or wardrobe, look at how things are arranged, and it's hard to quickly grab a top, a bottom, and another layer to combine them because

01:18

Speaker A

there is no single order. That is why in this video, we will discuss the most frequent mistakes—how you should not store your clothes. Wardrobe editing and proper storage are the basics that we all need to know. If you have a

01:34

Speaker A

desire to dress stylishly, put together beautiful outfits, and make sure that your clothes are an asset to you. That is, not just throwing money away on clothes without wearing them all, buying the same things over and over, but actually having variety and

01:47

Speaker A

enjoying your clothes, you need to start with the basics. This means doing a wardrobe edit once a season, understanding what items you have, which ones it's time to get rid of, what you should add, and making a list.

01:59

Speaker A

But we will talk about that in another video. And the second thing you need to do if you want to put together stylish outfits and do it quickly is to organize your closet. That is, to arrange your things properly. Believe

02:11

Speaker A

me, whether we feel like getting dressed or not depends on how our things are organized. Do you want to enter your walk-in closet or open your wardrobe, or maybe you don't? Is it a mess in there, or is it organized in a

02:22

Speaker A

cool, beautiful way that makes it easy to find things, grab them, and put outfits together? We need to know how to properly store items in a closet or walk-in wardrobe. It doesn’t matter, even if you’ve gone away for a couple

02:33

Speaker A

of days. They also need to be organized according to a system. Thanks to a proper storage system, first of all, we save time, meaning we get dressed much faster. Secondly, we actually want to get dressed, experiment, and put looks

02:45

Speaker A

together because we have a clear separation of items. We know which item to take from where and how to put together a quick and stylish outfit.

02:52

Speaker A

And thirdly, of course, with proper storage, our clothes maintain their appearance for longer. So let's move on to five mistakes in improper storage.

03:01

Speaker A

The first mistake is hanging multiple items on a single hanger. This most often happens because you need to fit your items into the closet somehow, but space is limited. What happens with this type of storage? We most often

03:13

Speaker A

forget about the items hanging underneath and wear only those on top. Secondly, the items at the bottom get wrinkled faster. When we need to get dressed and put an outfit together quickly, we truly don’t use the clothes at the bottom, grabbing only

03:26

Speaker A

what's on top. I’ll show you right now: I have this buffer zone in my wardrobe where I place hangers when I wear an item or take it off. I immediately move those hangers to one area so they are easy and quick to grab

03:40

Speaker A

later. I love this method, and I don't have to search through my clothes to find a spare hanger. Some have small closets or walk-in wardrobes where space is limited. And unfortunately, it's quite difficult to hang every single item on a separate hanger like

03:52

Speaker A

that. Therefore, in the next mistake, you will learn how to create more space for storing your items. The second mistake in storage is when items for both cold and warm seasons are hanging in the closet or wardrobe at the same

04:05

Speaker A

time. For example, if it's cold outside and I have sweaters, jackets, sweatshirts, and shirts hanging here, but also crop tops, light t-shirts, or summer bodysuits that I’m not wearing. Or vice-versa, when it’s summer, and you still have sweaters, warm

04:19

Speaker A

cardigans, and heavy jackets hanging there that you can't wear in the summer. When items from several seasons hang in the closet or wardrobe at the same time, it creates the illusion that we have way more clothes than we do. And

04:31

Speaker A

when we want to put an outfit together, we go to our clothes and look at them.

04:34

Speaker A

Uh-huh. I feel like I have a lot of clothes. And you pick up an item and realize: "Wait, hmm, I can't wear this right now because it's not the right season, it doesn't fit." So it turns out that 30, 40-70% of your clothes

04:47

Speaker A

can't be worn this season because they simply aren't suitable for this weather. Not only do we think we have many clothes, but we actually have nothing to wear, and we waste money buying new things. Because when we understand what

05:02

Speaker A

items we have for the current season, we can make a list of what we're missing and buy exactly what we need.

05:09

Speaker A

And when we have lots of clothes hanging, both cold and warm, we just go to the stores, buy something we like, bring it home, and it turns out to be just like something we already have, adding no new silhouette to our

05:20

Speaker A

wardrobe. Therefore, it is crucial each season to put away items that don't belong to the current season and keep only those you can wear now. With this kind of organization, you'll get rid of the problem of hanging multiple items

05:34

Speaker A

on one hanger because you'll have more storage space. The third mistake in improper clothing storage is when a walk-in closet or wardrobe lacks categorization. Let me show you an example. You can now see in this closet how the items are separated by category.

05:48

Speaker A

Up top are the tops. Here are t-shirts, tanks, cardigans, shirts, jackets, and sweatshirts. Here are the bottoms. And here are the dresses. This is the men's section. It’s also organized by zone here. Tops hang above, and bottoms hang below. But quite

06:01

Speaker A

often in closets and wardrobes, I see a situation where bottoms, like skirts or jeans, are just hanging among the tops.

06:09

Speaker A

It turns out our tops and bottoms are mixed up, and when we need to assemble an outfit, our eyes just wander because we don't know what to choose. And we end up grabbing something out of habit again. It is very important to zone

06:20

Speaker A

clothes in your closets and wardrobes. One zone for tops, another zone for bottoms. Of course, it's ideal when you have a walk-in closet and can dedicate each section to a specific category of clothing. But when space is limited, we

06:32

Speaker A

can still use zoning. You just need to decide where the tops hang and where the bottoms hang. Tops are t-shirts, shirts, tank tops, sweatshirts, and jackets. Bottoms are jeans, trousers, pants, and skirts. So, I currently have a small walk-in closet, and I have two

06:46

Speaker A

zones. One zone is for tops, the other zone is for bottoms. And within each category, it’s also important to separate things. That means keeping t-shirts, shirts, jackets, and so on, separate. In short, our goal is to categorize items as much as possible.

06:59

Speaker A

That’s why I created a guide on how to properly store things in a closet or walk-in wardrobe. It covers everything: how to sort items by category, which ones should be folded versus hung, the order to hang them in for a pleasing

07:12

Speaker A

look (by color, shape, or length), and which storage accessories to use so your items always stay organized without needing a mon

your closet and putting together outfits a joy, click the link to download my guide. The link will be in the description below this video. You only need to learn this system once, and your things will always be in order

07:38

Speaker A

. It doesn’t matter if you move often , live in one place, or are traveling for a few days or a week. You will always pack your things using this system. The next storage mistake is keeping soft bags without any filler

07:52

Speaker A

inside. I often see situations in closets where one bag is piled on top of another, or soft bags are just standing there, all crumpled up. When stored this way, bags lose their shape much faster. And it doesn't matter how

08:04

Speaker A

much they cost. Whether it’s a luxury bag or one from a high-street store. If soft bags are stored without filler or piled on top of each other, cracks and creases appear much faster. And, of course, the bag will quickly lose its

08:17

Speaker A

appearance and won't look as presentable. So, if you want your bag to keep its look longer, regardless of its price, it’s important to store it correctly—in dust bags or not, and with or without filler. The fifth storage mistake is stacking pairs of

08:33

Speaker A

shoes on top of each other when space is tight or when you're too lazy to put them away properly. One pair of shoes might have three other pairs lying on top of it. There can be actual piles of

08:43

Speaker A

shoes. This also deforms the footwear. In reality, it is very important to get pleasure from your things. It should be a pleasure for you to wear them. Then you’ll want to wear different things, experiment with them, and put together

08:54

Speaker A

different looks. And one way to spark that desire is to organize your things beautifully. So, use special shoe storage systems, use specific organizers, and arrange your space so that you truly enjoy it. Because when things are organized into a system,

09:09

Speaker A

when there is order, believe me, you get so much pleasure from your belongings and want to wear everything, try everything—it's a joy. How to properly arrange your shoes, what accessories to use for storage, and how to correctly store bags—you’ll find

09:21

Speaker A

all of this in my guide. Honestly, I truly recommend it from the heart, because I’ve put every rule and every system I use into it, which is how I get such pleasure from my things. And I love getting dressed every day;

09:33

Speaker A

download this guide via the link in my profile bio. And the last mistake we’ll discuss regarding improper storage is the one that simply changed my life before and after. And that is storing underwear, socks, and stockings without special drawer organizers.

09:49

Speaker A

Before I started using this system, my underwear drawer was pure chaos and a mess. I really love it when everything is beautifully folded and very tidy.

09:56

Speaker A

But once a month, without this system, my underwear would just turn into a complete disaster. I had my panties stored separately and my bras separately. You can see that in another video. I talked about how my walk-in closet is set up. And every time I

10:08

Speaker A

opened the drawer, it would, of course, end up a mess. So about once a month, I had to tidy up my underwear and fold it all neatly again. Even though I tried to put things away properly every time

10:19

Speaker A

after laundry. Therefore, as soon as I started using a different system for storing underwear, I’ve had perfect order in there ever since. I have order in my stockings, socks, panties, and bras. And I’m a terribly happy person because I’ve been using this system

10:35

Speaker A

for over a year now. Now, about once every six months, I just clear out some old socks or underwear that I no longer want to wear. That’s it. And there is always perfect order in there. I hope this video was useful to you. If you

10:47

Speaker A

have any questions, be sure to ask them in the comments. If you start applying the tips from this video right now, your things in the closet or wardrobe will look different, and you will get much more pleasure from your order.
