Gen Z's latest fashion hack is using iPhone Notes to plan outfits. Here's how to do it yourself.

• iPhone owners are uploading photos of their outfits to the Notes app on their phones.
• The Gen Z viral style hack is helping people to remember and plan their looks.
• Here's which iPhone features to use if you want to try it.

Gen Z fashionistas are taking closet organization into their own hands — and using a simple iPhone feature to do it.

While Pinterest boards offer style inspiration, some young people are using the Notes app instead. There, they can upload photos of their own wardrobe and outfits and plan looks based on clothes they already have.

One big benefit: There aren't any special apps or tools to download. This closet-organizing hack is doable with an up-to-date iOS device.

It's unclear who was the first to figure it out, but it was popularized by influencer Morgan Riddle in 2023. It's particularly helpful when planning outfits for a vacation, and many people break them down by location or occasion.

TikTokers praise the hack for helping them remember their favorite outfits and plan for trips. Some compared it to dress-up toys like Polly Pocket or the changeable avatar skins in the video game Fortnite.

Here's how to make your own version of Cher Horowitz's closet from the "Clueless" movie.

Start in your Photos app

You can either try on potential outfits or use photos you've already taken, but you'll want to use full-body pictures of yourself.

Pro tip: For the best results, choose images in which you're the main focus and the only one in the photo.

Once you've chosen your first picture, press down on your body until it's highlighted with a glowing outline and a list of options at the top. Then, press "copy."

Now head to the Notes app

Once you've copied the outfit, open the Notes app and select a note to paste your image onto. You can use a generic title like "Outfits" or name your note based on a trip or occasion.

Press anywhere on the empty note to paste your outfit. It'll probably take up most of the note at first, but don't worry.

To shrink it down and make room for more pictures, press the three dots in the top right corner of the note. When the options come up, press "attachment view," then select "set all to small." That should make your images smaller. You can do this after adding all of your attachments, but doing it after the first one made it easier for me to organize them.

Repeat and customize it based on your needs

Once you've uploaded all of your ensembles, it's time to organize them how you see fit. Since I'm not going on a trip soon, I sorted some past outfits based on which season they're best suited for.

You could also sort them by a particular aesthetic or the type of event to which they'd be worn.

As someone who tends to plan her outfits about an hour before walking out of the door in them, I was skeptical of this hack.

However, being able to keep a record of my favorite looks from over the years has made this a useful tool.

I might not want to repeat my 'fits, but having them side by side is giving me new inspo on how to mix and match my clothes.
