[quote=Anonymous]The routine and having a much cooler aunt help out were key for us. I also had to let go of closet organization. DD has a quarterly even where she tries on everything in her closet and gets rid of things that don’t fit or aren’t her style anymore. This happens right before her cool aunt comes to town to take her shopping. The goal is to get 10 casual/ school-appropriate outfits, 5 casual weekend outfits, and 2 dressy outfits. SIL is amazing at this. The outfits get hung together in the closet. We talk about what kind of day/ event it is. Too small clothes also disappear on laundry day, and stained clothes also get pulled out for “treatment”. We also have a box for favorites that no longer fit so they can be visited but not worn. One sweater got turned into a pillow with a piece kept as a fidget with a marble inside.[/quote]
