"Many people organize their closets by color and/or by category. When you decide what to wear for the day, do you say, 'I'm really going to have a blue day'? (Well, maybe if you're feeling blue, but that's a different story!) It's really the occasion that determines our wardrobe choices, followed by weather, followed by preference, and so on. Start by removing and boxing up every piece that simply causes a distraction (out of season, wrong size, etc.), and then organize by purpose (i.e. work, casual, dressy)."
