Makin' the Switch

Yes, the switch. From winter to spring. I'm sorry if you're reading this and you live in Florida, I'm sorry but up here in Buffalo, it was cold for forever, it snowed in April. It's about time that everyone makes the switch from their winter clothes to spring/summer clothes. First I'm gonna be the fashion police. NO one is allowed to wear a sweater and jeans one day, and the shorts and a tank the next, your wardrobe just doesn't work that way. Second, no more uggs! I can't take it anymore, they're driving me nuts, everytime I see someone walk into school with muddy or wet uggs I just want to scream! Aren't your feet hot? Do they need oxygen? Are you even bothered that you're ruining your highly expensive pair of aussie boots? Alright I've got a solution for you. Turn on some good music and force yourself to enter that mess of a closet and that jumble of drawers. Here's what you do:
-Look at every item of clothing
 FOR EXAMPLE
Ask yourself: Do I like this shirt anymore?
If you said yes: place it in a "yes" pile
If you said no: place it in the "no" pile, send it to a consignment shop, a plato's closet, or good will, or you could have a clothing swap with a bunch of friends.
If you you said I don't know: try it on, see if you still like it, if it can match with anything, etc. then place in the "yes" or "no" pile.
-Next it's time to put all your winter clothes away.
Anything that is the following is considered winter:
*turtle necks
*long-sleeved shirts(unless you want to keep one out for a cold summer night at the beach, and 3/4 sleeves are okay!)
*sweaters(again keep one out for the beach)
*Uggs(absolutely, you just gotta put 'em away, please)
*Other boots made of suede material(leather is perfectly fine)
*The Moccasins(Yup, they're like slippers)
*Any dark colored tights(even snazzy ones, keep the nude tights out for chillier days)
*Sweatpants
*long leggings(you wanna walk around looking like you're wearing long underwear with a summer blouse, it's your choice to look weird.)
*Knit scarves, or even solid colored scarves
*Your winter coat
*Don't forget to put away anything containing snowflakes!
-Finally, take out the clothes you've been waiting for:
*Those floral prints!
*Sun dresses!
*Shorts!
*Skirts!
*More dresses!
*Sandals, flip flops, boat shoes, espadrilles, wedge heels, strappy heels, heels!
*Sunglasses!
*Trench coat!
*Blouses
*Halters, Tubes, strapless, sleeveless, etc!
*Bathing Suit!
*Bold, warm, and light colors!
Aren't you excited? Have fun sorting/organizing...
