Making your wardrobe work for you

For years on and off I have tried many different ways to make my wardrobe work for me. I used to have a separate teaching/work clothes section for convenience but since I recently retired from teaching, I donated all of my work clothes to charity, hence I no longer have the need for separate sections. I used to have my clothing sectioned into shirts, pants, skirts, coats etc..Then I tried putting them together within the sections in colour spectrum, from light to dark, and used a couple of images from Google to help me put them into the right order.

Pure genius! Can't wait for the collection to land in Australia. Which are your favourites? Yours in style,  Suzi x Photos by  @zorasicher  c/o Sandy Liang NY
