The miracle of an organized closet

Closet #1 - apparently my personal homage to the white (or at least pale) blouse.

Closet #2 - shoes, dresses and jacket type dealies

Coat & Handbag closet

The long awaited and much antipated day has come and nearly went! The closets are finished and my clothes now get to live in a proper home. Nevermind that I had to weed out much more than I already had, it's no fault of the closets that I need an extra annex on the house for my clothes. I weeded out an entire garbage bag of shoes and 3 bags of clothing (this after the initial, preliminary weeding). Much of the clothing and shoes are vintage and will just end up in the shop. I still have a bin of summer dresses without a home though, I am not sure how to reconcile that, I have sifted all I can and I want to keep all the others! I think if I wear some of them once it will be enough, but many have not even had their first wear, so it might be a while before all the dresses get to live in the closet. This process has really illustrated to my just how much of a closet habit I have. Not to mention, it seems I have a REAL thing for white/pale blouses, until I decided to organize the blouses by color I had no idea just HOW much I loved a white blouse!

Wow! It looks so great! I love how you've organized by color and type - I do that :)
Good luck finding the extra space for your dresses. How about boxing your winter coats for the summer and using that space?

I have insane closet envy right now! You must be so relieved to not have your loves lying all around on the floor.
