I do have an interesting change in my closet organization that I want to share! I now have a new section just for knit tops. (knit tops meaning those tops that are not woven but certainly do not fit into the t-shirt catagory) I do have a section of t-shirts and a section for button-down shirts but I was never sure where to put my knit tops..now they have their own section and it makes so much more sense!

And I no longer have a section for capri pants. When I tried them on, I realized how un-fab they looked. My eye is changing apparently!

Thanks Ana for the idea. I think that would work great. These are structures winter hats and I want the keep them from getting crushed during the warmer months. I think those draws would be perfect. Thanks for the suggestion! JB

Laura, absolutely. You need to see your wardrobe in its entirety at all times. That way you never miss a trick. By all means move non-seasonal items to more hard-to-reach closet places and pull forward the items that are in full seasonal use. You’ll be more creative with your outfits when you see everything at once and there’s no risk of doubling up on items you already have. (How many items have you duplicated at off season sales because you forgot you had them?) Popping a Summer blouse under a Winter dress can be fabulous. Can’t do that if your blouses are hibernating.

The swapping out of clothing seasons is not a concept I am familiar with. Trust me, European houses and houses elsewhere in the world tend to have TINY closets. It’s not an impossible task to keep all your seasons together! That being said, in some cases it’s just impossible and it sounds like Shiny has a legitimate closet space challenge.

RSRP, I hope you got rid of those jeans.

JB, Ana made great hat storage suggestions. It really depends on the style of the hat. You either have to place them on a shelf, or hang them on a hook. Collapsible hats fit into mesh drawers and that’s how we store our hats.

Good to have you back, Rosie. We have missed you too.

Sarah, I know you’ve been working hard at overhauling your closet and we have seen your great progress. Well done.

Carolyn, your closet actions are delightful . Good for you. The picture of your late friend is a beautiful touch. I keep an old vintage beaded handbag that belonged to my late Mother in my closet for a similar nostalgic purpose. I have also decorated our top shelves with Chanel boxes. My closet is a little shrine, even though I share it with hubby.

Good job editing Eva. It’s liberating to be set free of clutter.

Am I the only one who wants a list of must-haves for my closet? I have Kendra’s from “The Pocket Stylist” and have seen Tim Gunn’s. But aren’t those the bare bones lists of things you really must have? I struggle with how much is too much and lately the opposite really – how little is too little? I work outside the home and our dress code is business casual.

I’d love to see a post on this Angie! You’ve got me shopping again so that’s a start!
