Before you head out to buy something new, have you taken a moment to really explore what’s already in your wardrobe? In this episode, I’m diving into the power of shopping your own closet first—a mindful, sustainable, and confidence-building approach to personal style.
Each year, Australians purchase up to 56 new garments, and yet nearly 40% of our wardrobes often go unworn. That’s a huge opportunity to reimagine what we already own and get creative with what we have.
In this episode, I’ll cover:
- Why shopping your own wardrobe can save you money, reduce overwhelm, and help the planet
- How a wardrobe declutter and a few styling mindset shifts can bring your closet back to life
- Tips to identify wardrobe gaps, so any future purchases are intentional and aligned with your style
- How to get inspired and recreate new looks with what you already own
- The role of organisation and outfit repeating in building confidence and refining your style
I’ll also share some of my favorite personal tips—like how I use hanger flipping to track what I’ve worn, why I love “no-spend” style challenges, and how styling your own wardrobe helps you strengthen your fashion intuition and personal style muscle over time.
If you’ve been feeling like you have “nothing to wear” while staring at a full closet, this episode is for you.
