I just helped a friend sort through her closet. She did the same for me before I moved to Denver. It's amazing how we women collect and hold onto things in our closets. We hold onto outfits that made us feel good years ago, even if they are all worn out and outdated. We hold onto outfits that make us feel fat or ugly or sad and we aren't sure why.
What we wear can affect how we feel and how we feel can affect what we wear. I know that on the days when I'm feeling down, I make myself put on waisted pants (no sport shorts or sweatpants) and I put on at least a little mascara and lipstick. It makes me feel more put together and prepares me to face the day.
On this Makeover Monday, I'm not suggesting you give your closet a total makeover, like my friend. If you do need to tackle a project like that, invite a friend to help. It will go much easier. Do take a moment to evaluate how much we allow our clothes and makeup to affect how we feel as women. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? How can we use it to God's glory and not for worldly affirmation?

Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken. (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 NIV)
