organizing my chaos

allow me to experiment...

admittedly, blogging is something new to me.

writing is not, but blogging taps into skill sets that are altogether different.

[these photoshop graphics, for example]

if you'll bear with me, i am going to give it a whirl.

what do we see here?

the whole thing: 

a book shelf. when andrew's dad built us a huge book shelf,

i had this one to spare.

[music to my closet's ears]

this was my winter version.

1. 

represents four of the squares i use for pants. 

pants were taking up so much room in my closet, 

that i plucked them all out and folded them.

[2 squares are denim; 1 is black, white, and neutral; and the bottom left is for workout pants]

2. 

scarves + clutches. 

andrew and i received so many great bowls for our wedding,

that i decided to repurpose them and use them for storage

3.

sunnies + gloves + glasses.

before, my sunglasses stayed in a purse somewhere.

[vulnerable to breaking or falling out]

now that they have a place,

i've kept up with them so much better!

4. 

display your most prized pair of shoes.

[mine were a gift from uncle sam]

display them like you would see in a boutique.

these are next to an audrey dvd collection.

[who doesn't die for audrey hepburn?]

5.

tory burch flats.

face it, i was running out of room in my closet for shoes.

because these are all the same brand and style,

i store them in a cool silver bowl for ready-access.

chic take-away:

when your wardrobe turns to chaos,

get creative. personalize. 

make your favorite fashions accessible.

and by all means, make yours a lot neater than mine!
