KIND CURATION
It’s important to honour your body throughout this process, it has taken you through your whole life and deserves kindness.
Keep that in mind while you go through your existing wardrobe and identify which pieces still resonate with you and those that no longer work for you.
By removing outdated or ill-fitting clothes, you can make space for new pieces that inspire and make you feel like yourself as you are now, instead of pieces that make you try to be who you once were.
Take time to reflect on which pieces are your favourites to wear and their colours, cuts, fabrics, etc. Consider this a wardrobe audit - this will help ensure you buy pieces that you’ll get a lot of wear out of in the future.
