Looking for reasons to digitise your wardrobe? It can take a little time, but it’s more than worth it in the end. Here’s why we love using digital wardrobe apps:

Track your style evolution

Are you the organised friend? Keeping track of everything you own and actually being able to see and style all your clothes is one of the main reasons we love our digital wardrobe on Whering. It’s the best way to get the most use out of everything and keep your outfits fresh, without having to buy anything new.

We’ve all been there looking through old photos thinking ‘I can’t believe I actually thought that looked good’. It’s a whole lot easier to look back over your old outfits when you have an app dedicated to it, not just photos in your camera roll. All the more reason to digitise your wardrobe and schedule your outfits, right?


Understand your style


Ever wondered how much you wear certain pieces, colours or styles? With Whering, wonder no more. Our stats show you a breakdown of everything you’ve been wearing since you started logging your outfits. 


Stats are useful for so many reasons:

  • Buying clothes you actually love that you know you will wear couldn’t be easier with Whering. Our stats will tell you exactly what you’re actually wearing so there’s never a reason to impulse buy.
  • Understand your style - feel confident in all your outfits when you see what pieces and colours make you feel most confident (based on those you wear the most often).
  • Make the most out of everything you own. Filter to view your least-worn items to ensure you’re maximising the potential of everything in your wardrobe. It’s sustainable and more cost-effective to get a newness fix out of clothes you already own.

Try before you buy 


See how your existing wardrobe looks with items you want to buy online when you digitise your closet. Imagine if every time you bought something online you already had a series of stunning outfits planned including that item so it was readily integrated into your wardrobe? 


With Whering, you can import images of items from online stores into your digital wardrobe and style them with items you already own. It’s online shopping, but better. It helps to make intentional purchases when you’re properly thinking about how the items will look with what you already own.


Get endless outfit inspo


In need of more outfit inspiration? We’ve all been there. Whering has so many features to offer you fresh styling inspiration from clothes you already own (saving the planet and your finances- you’re welcome). 


Use our Clueless inspired wardrobe shuffle feature, Dress Me, to live your best Cher Horowitz life as in the iconic 90s film Clueless. Shuffle your wardrobe to discover new outfit combinations in seconds. As if!


Stuck on what to wear? Our ‘Discover new outfits’ feature shows you 6 new outfits a day based on your previous styling choices so you can find a curated outfit suggestion you’re bound to love. 


Shuffle your outfits in the Calendar to be presented with a random outfit you’ve already made and go ahead and schedule it for the day. 


You can also filter to view your most and least worn items to trigger some inspiration. It feels like we’ve gained a new item when we finally style something we’ve not worn for ages in a way that makes it more wearable.


Lastly, (we did say Whering had a lot of ways to get outfit inspiration) you can use Moodboard or Wishlist on Whering to collate items and aesthetics you’re loving, to inspire your current wardrobe or inform future purchases.


See what everyone’s wearing

Knowing what everyone else is wearing is a must. It's helpful to know what vibe to go for so you can feel confident in your outfit. For moments when you want to know what everyone else is wearing, why not share your Whering outfit collage in your group chat or browse your besties closet?


To share your outfit simply scroll below the outfit image and click ‘share’. You’ll get the full picture of their outfit from accessories to shoes so you know exactly what they are wearing.


Level up your styling

Are you a stylist looking for a new way to work with your clients? Why not use a Wardrobe app? We’re bringing styling into the 21st century. You can access your clients accounts to see and style them outfits without leaving your office. It makes your job as a stylist so much easier. 


If you like to work in person and see the clothes in the flesh, go for it. Whering will still make it a lot easier for everyone involved to remember the outfits you styled to refer back to them in the future.




That’s why we’ve never looked back since digitising our wardrobe. If you’ve got a few reasons why you love digitising your wardrobe that we haven’t mentioned, be sure to let us know on our socials, Twitter and Instagram @Whering__.
