Helpful, simple, patient, concise.

Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2014

This book could help a person who is immobilized for whatever reason and just can't attack their overstuffed, cluttered closet. The author (your new smart, patient best friend) holds your hand and takes you through the mental process first: deciding whether to clear it out and organize, and why it matters. She suggests lining up a "declutter buddy" to show or share before & after photos with. And then, the big clean.

The essence of her advice is summed up here:

Now is the time to go through your items one by one, making a decision as you go. Should you keep, sell, give away, ditch or store? If in doubt, try things on.
Ask yourself these questions before making a decision:
Does it fit me?
Does it suit my personality and my style?
Is it 'me'?
Does it make me say 'wow'?
Is it classic and good quality enough for multiple wears and/ or years?
Will it go with as many of my other clothes as possible?
Is it too old, in bad condition or past its 'wear-by-date'?
Do I already have something similar?
Last but not least, does your hubby think you are sexy in it?

I'd Have Never Bought This...

...based on its title and cover I wouldn't have been interested in this book. But a few weeks ago I discovered Marie-Anne LeCoeur on YouTube and quickly became a fan of her wonderfully positive energy. I bought this book simply to support what she's doing and was delighted that the book is a joy to read. Her spirit shines through every page.

Wow that worked!

I was all ready to purge my closet when I started this book so I thought it would just be a nice friendly a accompaniment. And then I read the words 'now empty your closet!' At 7pm mind you. And I have a big walk in closet FULL of clothes shoes and accessories. I gulped a few times - then said 'Oui Madame!' And did it. The result is so much more exciting than if I'd done it the way I intended. Mme Lecoeur's tips on organization and the classic wardrobe have helped reveal exactly why every morning I'd stand in my packed closet and think 'Why the hell do I have nothing to wear?!!" - and how to fix it with minimal shopping and expense. Surprisingly effective little book!

Enjoyed the chic and elegant handbook so much that I bought the tidy closet!!! With so much emphasis on conspicuous consumption in our society today it is refreshing to read about ways to reduce all this excess in our closets and ultimately in our homes!! I also purchased the "gentle art of Swedish death cleaning" book. Both books give wonderful tips on how to minimize all the excess that we have in our closets and in our homes. We have to think of others and future generations and how all this excess will adversely affect them!! The French motto is "less is more" is truly the only path to take in our lives!!!

I like Marieanne Lecoure on You Tube. But this books didn't go into much detail about how to organize your closet. I read it and gave it away.

Perfect book to transform your closet!

Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2014

Verified Purchase

I've been in my home for nearly 8 years with a walk-in closet that has become more cluttered with each day. I didn't realize how much I dreaded finding something to wear (though I love fashion) until I decluttered my closet! The Tidy Closet is so well written with all the steps you need to transform your closet to a lovely, welcoming, organized space! It took me a weekend (I have a lot of stuff) and there were moments of dread (like when everything from my closet was on my bed and bedroom floor) but I kept remembering the tips from the book and pushed through. It was so worth it! Not only is my closet more spacious, I feel wonderful! It has even made a difference on how I start my day. I'm going to take the tips from this book to tackle other areas of my home!

It’s motivating me to objectively view the contents of my closet and drawers. The unused are moving out and I am discovering forgotten clothes that I can use again.

I think she had some great ideas for how to manage the clothes you keep and suggestions for why decluttering one's closet is beneficial. I wish she would've spent a little more time on the organizing part and a little less on the motivational part - but, then, I'm already motivated.

A clear path to a tidy closet!

Reviewed in France on September 8, 2022

Verified Purchase

Marie-Anne Lecoeur wrote this book like she was talking to me as a friend. Her advice on how to achieve and maintain a tidy closet is simple, practical, and to-the-point. Also very motivating. She essentially provides a clear roadmap to get from a disaster zone of a closet to one that is tidy and satisfying. She also includes a bonus chapter on classic wardrobe essentials to have in one's closet. She says that having these essentials will make getting dressed and looking chic much easier, helping one to save time and effort. I followed her advice, and she is so right! I also loved the little section in The Tidy Closet called "Use Your Best." She writes, "Instead of 'Sunday best,' why not 'Tuesday best' or 'Thursday best'? Let's aim for 'every day best.' Make every day special enough to wear your best clothes and use your most precious accessories. This will make you feel extra special and chic. Why not look and feel great every day?" Yes! Thanks to what I've learned from Marie-Anne, I've ditched (donated) my frumpy clothes and wear nice garments whenever I go out, even if I'm just to go to the store to buy a bag of cat litter. Having an organized closet, following Marie-Anne's guidelines, is essential for dressing ourselves with awareness and care. The results are fantastic.

Written so it is easy to read, in chapters so not overwhelming...although once i started i read the lot i really wanted to read what was next. There is a bonus chapter to help you start a 'basic' wardrobe with tips. So glad i bought it. Also the video clip '10 ways to start your chic...' by Marianne Lecour complements the book. Highly recommend it...should have bought it sooner.

I am a recovering Cluttered Closet. Not long ago I was in despair, filled with unwanted and outdated clothes, my shelves sagged with "stuff" bought but never worn. Shoes shared space with jackets, undies with items far removed from the word lingerie. I was desperate, even Closets Anonymous had given up on me. Then I found this book... The Tidy Closet. and suddenly there was hope. My owner ( a chronic clutterer) was galvanised into action. I was denuded, washed, polished with scented paper on my shelves.

As each item was evaluated I held my breath.. Would it come back to haunt me or would it go into one of the three bags marked Charity Shop, Dump, and Mend. As my owner followed the clear instructions step by step I began to be reborn. What had been a disaster became a fun exercise. Throwing things out that had once been hoarded was so freeing. Now I am slim and organised, my shelves neatly arranged and shoes where they belong...on their own shelf.

OK, so that's the closet's viewpoint. I am/was the chronic clutterer in question. I didnt hang, I stuffed. The Tidy Closet inspired me with its clear instructions, great ideas, and suggestions. Ms Le Coeur has managed to make it a cross between physical exercise, a dance routine, a psychology lecture and FUN. For the first time in years I know where things are. I needed this book years ago, but I/m so glad I have it now. It's worth twice its cost. It will be hard to keep this new tidiness going... but I can go back to the book and be re-enthused. Highly reccommended
