Check-in Closet App

The fashion conscious and even the not so fashion conscious tend to ask 'What to wear?'. People ask that question when its comes to old clothes or new ones. Thats where the Check-in closet App comes into play. It allows anyone to make their own 'clothing cycle' - which means a person can make a visual diary of when, where and with who they wore a particular item of clothing last and when to wear it next. In addition, people can write down their own personal story / experience they went through while wearing that item of clothing. People do create a sentimental / nostalgic bond with their clothes and the Check-in closet allows them to express and record those memories.
 
So the next time you are standing in front of your closet, tired after trying on that third shirt, pick up your phone, get the Check-in Closet App and make it seem like you have a new wardrobe every time.
 
Take a look at the App and the complete UX flow explained below...

The image and details can be scaled, by clicking on the 'interchange' button. By clicking it, the user can see more details and a link to the story relating to when he / she wore the outfit.
The Stories:
Users write a story relating to the experience they had when he / she wore an outfit. The story can be whatever they decide - how comfortable they felt while wearing it, a place they went to while wearing it, a reminder to check the outfit before wearing it next time as they stained it, compliments they received etc.
The story is shown along with a picture of the outfit.
Up to three pictures are shown of the outfit / story, if there are multiple pictures.
Search:
Users can search through their clothing cycle via many or multiple criteria.
The various search fields.
Users enter one or a combination of search fields.
Depending on the users tags the relevant search results are shown.

When clicked it shows a large picture of the clothing item and some details.
To read more, the user clicks the 'interchange' icon in the middle of the photo and the details.
Organize:
Users have options to categorize, select clothing items or put together outfits for the future.
When a user choses to organize clothes, he or she first has to select a date for it.
The user selects a day.
Once chosen the use is presented with two options - Take a new picture or search from previously tagged pictures.
The first option is a quick access photo button allows the user to take a picture quickly. Perhaps he / she saw a item on clothing in the store window and wants to wear it at a future occasion and so, takes a quick picture.

After the picture is taken, the user fills in the occasion and date they want to wear that particular item of clothing to 'put on hanger' so that the app can remind him / her at the appropriate time / day.
The second option is the search option.
The user can fill in one or multiple search fields to find a particular item of clothing.
Tagged results are shown according to search criteria.
The user selects the one he / she was looking for.
Once selected, the user fills in the occasion and date to 'put on hanger'.
Once a outfit is put away, the calendar gets a hanger (notification) icon, which can be checked or edited at any time.
The Outfit Calendar:
A simple calendar which has all the past present and future outfits organized.
The calendar shows all the various dates / days for which outfits have been put away.
To see details, the user simply clicks on a date / day.
When a date is clicked on, information relating to the outfit is shown.
Information can be interchanged to be seen in more detail.
