Organize Your Wardrobe for a Perfect Summer

With the days getting warmer, it’s time to get your perfect summer wardrobe in order. Even if you have already #sorted and #stored your cold-weather clothing, says Lifetime Organizing, you’ll want to create a “capsule” wardrobe that suits you and your lifestyle. Look at the events and activities you have coming up, and sort out the garments that will work for them. Then, reorganize your closet to put those items front-and-center, limiting yourself to a specific number of mix-and-match essentials. Store the fall and winter clothing, and #donate any garments that no longer fit into the rotation to ClothingDonations.org. #PerfectSummer

Keep Clothing Fresh Without the Chemicals

Downy Unstopables revealed the “mystery celeb” whose face was obscured by a fresh-scented hoodie in teasers for its Super Bowl ad on Sunday: “Downy” McBride. The over-the-top Eastbound and Down and The Righteous Gemstones actor takes to the streets in a souped-up golf cart, firing containers of the product to neighbors with a modified T-shirt cannon. For those who want to keep their #closets smelling #fresh with fewer chemicals, however, The Organizing Blog recommends first #decluttering to give your #clothing some space to breathe, then placing natural #deodorizers such as dried herbs, homemade potpourri, cedar blocks or essential oils inside. #SuperBowlAds

E-Commerce and Clutter

A Super Bowl ad for e-commerce giant Rakuten debuted Sunday, featuring Alicia Silverstone revisiting her star turn as Cher in the 1995 rom-com Clueless. Focusing on fashion, the spot shows her getting cash back on her many #clothing purchases. While Cher is able to magically #organize her wardrobe by color and cut using a giant motorized turnstile, the rest of us aren’t so lucky. If your #closets are #cluttered with unfortunate purchase decisions and sizes you no longer fit into, stop living in the past! Take an hour to sort out those garments that are only taking up valuable space — and contact ClothingDonations.org for a convenient #donation #pickup. #SuperBowlAds
