Moving Day!

Tali Katav • August 28, 2024

Leni, her wardrobe, and I are moving to a new home. It’s a monumental, thrilling, and slightly nerve-wracking event all at once.

Leni and I have known each other for five years now. She’s one of the most remarkable women I’ve had the pleasure of working with. At 65, Leni is a stunning presence in the world of fashion and art. She’s a regular at major fashion events and has crossed paths with the likes of Anna Wintour and other fashion icons multiple times. Imagine how fascinating it was for me to get to know her and her fabulous wardrobe!

I could write a book on everything I’ve learned from Leni—about life, happiness, and abundance. But I’ll save that for another time.

Right now, Leni’s move is the focus. Moving is always exciting, especially at 65. She’s enlisted the help of the most professional movers to handle her home, art collection, and furniture. But what about her wardrobe? That’s where I come in! 🙏

After meeting at her new home with the contractor, moving company manager, interior designer, and wardrobe designer, I developed a plan to pack her wardrobe. The goal is to carefully pack every item, ensuring that everything transitions smoothly from storage to her new home in the safest and most organized way possible.

The key is smart packing, tailored to her new space. Every item packed already has a designated spot in the new house—from socks and belts to every piece of clothing and cleaning supplies.

Moving can be both exciting and stressful. Where do you start? What do you pack? How do you avoid bringing unnecessary items into your new home, and how can you make the process as efficient as possible?

Here are my top five tips for a smooth move:

  1. Start Early: Don’t wait until the last minute. Begin organizing at least two months before the move to give yourself enough time to complete everything in an orderly manner.
  2. Sort Your Belongings: Go through each room and decide what you truly need to take with you and what can be donated or discarded. Keep only the items you use and already know where they’ll fit in your new home.
  3. Let Go of Unnecessary Items: New home, new energy! Moving is the perfect opportunity to get rid of things that no longer serve a purpose in your life. Donate clothes, dishes, and other items to those who need them.
  4. Label Boxes: Pack items into labeled boxes and clearly mark which room they belong in. This will make unpacking much easier when you arrive at your new place.
  5. Plan Moving Day: Make a checklist of all the tasks to be done on moving day, including packing boxes, disconnecting old utilities, and setting up new ones. Plan the day so everything goes smoothly.

Let’s make moving easier and more enjoyable!

Moving into a new house is exciting, but let’s face it—setting up the kitchen can feel overwhelming. Recently, I had the pleasure of helping a client organize their brand-new kitchen, turning it into a space that’s not only functional but also a joy to use.

As parents, we want the best for our teenagers—especially when it comes to creating a space where they feel calm, inspired, and empowered. Recently, I had the privilege of working with a 17-year-old girl to transform her room and closet. It was more than just tidying up; it was about redefining her space to reflect her personality and support her growth. Why isn’t this a project to tackle with Mom or Dad? Here’s the thing: our teens see their rooms as an extension of their identity, and working with a neutral, non-judgmental third party creates a safe space to explore what they truly want to keep, let go of, or display. With parents, emotions can get tangled in the process, making it harder to create a space that is truly theirs.

For the past twenty years, I've had the privilege of working with incredible men and women, connecting with thousands of beautiful souls. My love for styling was never rooted in a passion for fashion or trends. Instead, it was always about people! About igniting a new, deeper spark of beauty and self-love within them.

A few days ago, someone asked me what I love most about my work. I quickly replied that I love bringing beauty, light, order, harmony, and inspiration to every client, business, or home I enter.

This is a subtitle for your new postAs a seasoned events manager, I've often found myself wearing multiple hats to ensure an event's success. Three years ago, I took on the challenge of executing a major event, handling both the event management and operations management roles. This experience taught me that the devil is in the details and reinforced the importance of meticulous planning and flawless execution.

When we moved to the US 12 years ago, it was clear that I had to find a way to maintain my clients in Israel. Two months into settling into a new country, I had already built an online process for my overseas clients. Over the years, the process developed, and clients joined from Europe and across the US. As you already know, I love sharing stories about my clients, so this time, meet Susanna.

Two years ago, I visited a gallery in Soho, NYC, and saw an exhibition by Ragnar Kjartansson about guilt and fear. Kjartansson, a renowned Icelandic artist known for his performance art and video installations, explores deep emotional themes through his work. This exhibition was a profound moment that clicked, connecting these emotions with our relationship to clothes and how we dress.

I am often asked why I love organizing different spaces in my clients' homes. My most accurate answer is that I love freeing people from stagnation and weakening energies. What is the connection between organizing a kitchen or storage room and energy? It's really simple: The space we live in stores various energies, and sometimes, these energies need help being released. How do you know? Just close your eyes and sit quietly for ten minutes. Breathe and think about your home. Imagine walking through it. Some areas will bring a smile and calm, while others might evoke a sense of tightness, suffocation, or anxiety. These feelings usually indicate stagnation. If you look factually at the room or space you thought of during the meditation, it will often be messy, cluttered, and filled with things you last touched a long time ago. Meet the fantastic King family. I have been working with them for years, organizing different areas in their home. Sometimes, I return to reinforce an area I've already organized. The King family greatly appreciates beauty, aesthetics, and order. But life, being what it is, only sometimes allows them to maintain that order and organization. This time, we decided to organize their storage room. It had been on our radar for two years. It was clear that order needed to be restored there. When organizing a new space, I must involve the homeowners in sorting. It's a challenging process and requires a lot of mental and physical energy from them. There are three points in the process that I particularly love: the initial stage when we open the room door and say, "Oh my God, where do we start?"; the second point, when we finish emptying everything of the room and look at the space saying, "Wow, how will everything fit back in here?"; and the final point, when the room is ready, taking a deep breath and enjoying all the items that were stuck there, feeling the released energies and the stagnation that no longer exists, opening the door and enjoying the order, knowing where everything is. If you need help organizing, resetting, and building a system for any area of your home, you are welcome to schedule a free video call with me. Send me a private message, and we'll schedule it. Have a fantastic week 🦋
