Alicia’s Top Wardrobe Tips

After more than 40 years of helping women enjoy their clothes again, one thing has become crystal clear…

The answers to looking and feeling amazing are already in your wardrobe.

Before you rush out and buy something new, spend a little time getting to know the clothes you already own. I promise it will transform the way you get dressed every day.

1. Only wear clothes that make your heart sing ❤️

If you don’t absolutely love wearing something, ask yourself why you’re keeping it.

Every time you get dressed, your clothes should make you feel confident, comfortable and like the very best version of you.

2. The only way to know is to try everything on!

When was the last time you tried on every single item in your wardrobe?

Most of us have clothes we haven’t worn for months – or even years. Until you try them on, you simply don’t know how they fit, how they feel or whether they still suit your lifestyle.

3. Organise your wardrobe by season

Store away the clothes you won’t be wearing for the next few months. Ideally, only keep the clothes you’ll wear over the next 3–6 months in your wardrobe. It makes getting dressed so much easier.

4. Organise by garment type and colour

Group similar garments together, then organise each section by colour. It’s amazing how many forgotten treasures you’ll rediscover simply because you can actually see them. Out of sight really is out of mind.

5. Most women wear 20% of their wardrobe 80% of the time

Trying everything on helps you rediscover pieces you’ve forgotten and create outfits you never realised you already owned.

6. Ask yourself these questions

• Do I feel fabulous?
• Does it fit me properly?
• What can I wear it with?
• How many outfits can I create?
• Does it need altering or a little TLC?
• Which shoes or accessories would transform the look?

Always ask yourself: What's the price per wear?

My Final Tip

The more clothes you own, the fewer you tend to wear. Instead of buying more, learn to love what you already have.

And remember, feeling fabulous in outfits you love starts with what's underneath. The right foundation changes how your clothes sit, how they feel and, most importantly, how you feel wearing them.

Get the foundations right, and you'll often discover outfits you've stopped reaching for suddenly feel comfortable and flattering again.

That's exactly why I created the Alicia Kite shapewear collection: to help you feel more confident in the clothes you already own, without the squeezing, digging in or restriction often associated with shapewear.

I promise you, the answers to looking and feeling fabulous aren't in the shops. More often than not, they're already hanging in your wardrobe.

Enjoy rocking your style.
