I have never been more overdue for a closet cleanout than I am right now. Winter is not easy when you live in New York and you’re the kind of person who needs to own about 15 coats. But I know from experience that no matter how spacious your closet is, cleanouts are tough, especially when you have sentimental value attached to each and every thing. In need of a helping hand, I turned to a professional, and what celebrity stylist Jacqueline Zenere had to say ended up being a major game changer.
Zenere is most known for styling Olivia Palermo and Ashley Benson to the nines for everything from partnerships to movie premieres to award shows and more. I expected our chat to be mainly centered around items that needed to be tossed immediately but ended up being extremely impressed by Zenere’s expertise as she guided me through recovering some items that just needed a little update. In regard to things that needed a toss, I must say that I can’t be the only one who’s committed these fashion faux pas, so scroll on to find out which items you should get rid of and how to save a few things from your pile of rejects.
