Take the Time : My Obsession with the new “Outfits” by Cladwell Wardrobe App
Okay, who remembers that scene in Clueless where Cher Horowitz had that computer program where her outfit was picked out for her?
If you’re a female over the age of like, 25, you know exactly what I’m talking about. I remember being a kid watching that movie and WISHING that something like that existed for me and could just DECIDE FOR ME what I was going to wear that day.
Well, the day has COME, y’all and the closest thing I’ve found to that program from Clueless exists and I. Am. Obsessed. “Outfits” is a new wardrobe app for iOS that has just launched and seriously, it’s amazing. I’ve been using it for five days now and I can’t get over how awesome it is.
Every day, Outfits will send you outfit ideas based on what you currently own, what the weather is like, and how often you wear an item. You can swipe through the three options, and log one outfit for the day. Since it keeps track of the clothes you wear most often, this wardrobe app will also give you personal guidance when it’s time to shop for new items and let you know which items will give you the most options in your closet.
It will also show you which types of items go best with the clothes you already own. Cladwell doesn’t sell clothes – the wardrobe app simply help you buy better stuff, and less of it. So you’re cutting down on time, clutter, and excess.
If you’re into the whole “capsule” wardrobe concept, this app is for you. If you stand in your closet for what feels like forever every morning trying to decide what to wear, this app is for you. If you are looking to find new combinations in your closet, this app is for you. If you’re wondering what items you might need to add to your wardrobe to make your closet more efficient, this app is for you.
The cost? Only $5 a month!! $5 a month to take back your time AND your closet. That’s about the cost of the cheap and low-quality t-shirt you bought at Target but hardly wear or even the latte you bought yesterday. I seriously cannot say enough good things about this wardrobe app.
Here are actual screenshots from my Outfits app for the past couple days… I LOVE that it helps choose outfits based upon the weather, too!!!!
On the left, this is my “closet.” Now, I added items to my “closet” within the app that are similar (or in some cases, exact matches) of items I already have in my closet. The app then pulls from those items to suggest outfits each day.
The right hand side are my “suggestions” of pieces I could add to my closet if I needed to go shopping to add more options. The wardrobe app really wants to get you to use the items in your closet to the fullest advantage.
For real though, I cannot say enough good things about this app. I’ve even got John excited about seeing what outfits it suggests for me each morning… 🙂
Some features I am hoping they launch in the future (these are just my ideas… not features that exist already):
- The ability to “pack” clothes – so, if you’re going on a trip, the app can suggest items from your closet for you to pack most efficiently
- The ability to more customize “event” specific outfits. Each day it does give you a few options for outfits, but I’d love if you can select an event like a wedding, job interview, or girl’s night out and it suggests and outfit
- I’d also love the option to be able to photograph or find an item in your closet that isn’t in the app. There are one or two pieces I own that I couldn’t find an exact match for in the app, but I just chose “similar” items…
- The ability to preview outfits for the week – right now you can only see outfits the day of… I’d love to be able to see outfits for the week and plan them out 🙂
I HIGHLY recommend giving Outfits a try. I seriously can’t even begin to explain how much I love it. Go download it now! And, as a bonus, be sure to share how you are taking the time back in your mornings…. are you sleeping in, reading a book, getting quiet time, working out? How are you taking those 15 extra minutes to enjoy life rather than trying to figure out what you’re going to wear?

This sounds like such a fun app! I’m one of those ‘there’s an app for that’ kinda gals and I had no idea about this one!! I’m always down for a bit of help putting together a good look. Thanks for the info – off to get this App!
That Clueless gif! LOL! I also think $5 is pretty good for something that will save soooo much time.
This app sounds AMAZING! Who comes up with this stuff? And your ideas as so on target. They should hire you for your ideas!!! Bravo. Great review!
Wow..there’s an app for that?! For everything..this post proves it’s true!
I loved that part in Clueless!! I can’t believe it’s a reality! Can’t wait to try it. Will help so much when putting outfits together for blogging!

seriously it’s AMAZING.
Heh, I’ve never seen Clueless but then I grew up under a rock, haha but I kinda want to see it since I hear it’s based on Jane Austen’s “Emma.”
This concept sounds really great though! I try to keep my closet super minimalist with lots of pieces that go together to create different outfits, but this app could definitely help with that!
this app is PERFECT for that!
This ah-mazing!! I do the capsule wardrobe and this would be perfect. Also, Clueless and that amazing closet with the dry-cleaner-esque racks may have been the inspiration for my closet system lol Def getting this app!
you will LOVE it
I am literally lol’ing at our twin reference to Clueless!!! Haha! I am loving the Outfits app, too. I am so obsessed with it!
hahahahahaha yessssss
