(Image credit: @jamieapearce) As Ive pointed out previously, my auntie is one of my style icons. Shes operated in the fashion and interior decoration worlds for as long as I can keep in mind and has probably cultivated a more powerful sense of design than anyone I know. Each time I see her, whether were hanging at her swimming pool in the summertime or dressed up for a vacation, shes extremely put-together and I do not believe Ive ever seen her in anything that didnt have some kind of color coordination, interesting layering, or eye-catching precious jewelry. And dont even get me begun on her closet– or should I state closets, plural– which are color collaborated with customized hangers and the whole nine yards.But as anyone with an excellent sense of design, she also tends to shop a lot, and for that reason cultivate a really complete closet. Last week, we took a seat over FaceTime to go through her closet and make some much-needed edits. My aunt is starting a new task quickly and is normally in spring-cleaning mode, so we had our work cut out for us. After a few hours of cycling through her collection of trousers, shirts, jackets, bags, and shoes, Im delighted to state that we removed a healthy quantity of products that were not longer serving her and merely filling up prime real estate in her closet. We tossed things like the frilly boho blouses that now feel out-of-date or a the leather trousers she hasnt touched in years.I weighed in on which pieces were holding her back from honing in on her style and which pieces felt worthwhile of keeping. Get all the details about our joint closet clear out ahead.Tossed: Oversized SweatersKept: Jacket-Style CardigansThe very first thing my auntie was prepared to remove from her closet was a stack of big oversized sweaters. “I realized all of them were making me feel type of frumpy and refraining from doing anything for my general silhouette.” Rather, shes been reaching for cardigans that have more of a boxy jacket shape to them and likes the way they display her waist when styled with high-waist trousers.

Tossed: Boho-Style TopsKept: Classic Poplin ShirtingMid-way through our call, she took out a series of boho blouses that I personally hadnt seen in years. They featured intense floral prints with ruffle sleeve and just had an overall dated feel to them that I honestly could not see my aunt using today. We kept her traditional poplin and silk dress shirts that she loves to use with jeans on more casual days.
