I think I've managed to avoid "analysis paralysis" by simply splitting my closet into two categories: "going out in public" and "staying in/working out."

I have a rule that I don't go out in public in pants. I will only go to work, shopping, or to restaurants, or to any other public outing wearing skirts or dresses. Because of this, separating the clothes in my closet that I deem appropriate for going out in public from my leggings and t-shirts that I wear for workouts or for just hanging out at home has made it a lot easier for me to get dressed without really thinking about it! Planning to go out today? Grab the next dress or skirt on the rack and throw some pantyhose on! Planning to stay in and clean, or do a workout later? Grab the next pair of leggings and a comfy sweater and get the day going!

This method (that I fell into by accident, honestly) has virtually eliminated the "what do I wear" decision problems!

(I also organize seasonally because I live in northern Canada and winter is very aggressive here!)

I love that! Such an easy way to determine what to wear every day.
