Closet Cleaning Tips

Jesse and Joe applied their tried-and-true tips and tests to help Gayle make the cold-blooded decisions necessary to clean out her closet. The first step is to create three piles: "yes," "no" and "maybe." Jesse says you have to "learn how to let things go back out into the universe. It's the circle of life."

How do you make the hard decisions to fill the piles? Jesse and Joe use three simple questions to thin the herd: Do I love this? Is it flattering? Is this the image that I want to portray? If any answer is "no," then it goes in the "no" pile.

This boxy plaid suit is reminiscent of what Gayle calls the "news anchor look." It is a definite "no."
