So I bought a little wardrobe, painted it white and now both of them keep my clothes, shoes, purses (some of them), linen, even my precious crystal candle holders (when they are "resting"). Above the closet I store the suitcases with blankets, pillows and and things that I use every now and then... I love your wooden hangers; my choice was black velvet hangers because they are so thin.

Bryn, don't you just love having everything neat in a row with your matching hangers? I'm partial to the thin velvet hangers (as they don't take up too much space) and just love walking into the closet and seeing that every morning.

Same amount of shoes too. I think I have the same brown boots on the floor too. :) But then I have a dresser that has my workout clothes, tshirts, pajamas, etc. <br /><br />I agree with your clothing philosophy. I'd rather have less and have it all be things I really like and wear. Too many options makes it harder sometimes. Plus as I get older I spend more on clothes which necessitates fewer pieces. :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04865685340069753604noreply@blogger.com
