teeniest closet con't...

high heels that i rarely wear. 
pared down to 5 pairs
the purple ones i've worn once (they hurt like heck). the bird print ones i've never worn (given to me by a friend after she no longer wanted them). peach ones--i hate how they make my feet look.
i was telling you yesterday how the plastic drawers on the bottom of my closet hold jewelry, electronics and whatnot. pictured above is the what not. i'm donating the glasses by shipping them off to this place. the rest, i'm selling in a yard sale--along with all the other items i'm collecting as i go through every nook and cranny over the next month and a half.

smallest. closet. evah

okay, so it's probably not the smallest clothes closet but i bet it's close. i got rid of 6 articles of clothing (whoo hoo). because i'm moving in 2 months, i plan on hyper-organizing all of my belongings... one day at a time. shoes tomorrow...

plastic bins hold jewelry and odds and ends. 
hats, scarves and extra bags and purses. definitely can do a once over here (but not too concerned with this area).
oh boy. you're aware of my unconventional shoe storage (shoes i wear all the time). but this is the only way i've come up with to store shoes i wear once or twice a year to fancy events. going through this bin manana.
photo books and mementos which i've recently gone through. used to be stored under bed--now at top of closet.
i sit on the floor and get ready in front of this mirror everyday. in the future, i envision a seating pillow or pouf or small stool so i don't have to sit on the floor anymore.
in basket, i keep lotion, perfumes, deodorant, and hairbrush. behind it, bare minerals powder that has to lay flat.
hook for current purse, cloth grocery bags and computer bag. can definitely sort and purge some bags.
over the door hooks hold jackets and hoodies. i wear all of them.
got rid of all the wire hangers and have one plastic hanger to spare!
donating 6 articles of clothing from the closet. 

ps: i forgot to take after pics of my closet after rearranging clothes by function (and within categories, by color). i'll post pics tomorrow.

Hmmmmmm...



Hmmmmmm. Not sure how I feel about these hangers. I was at Target yesterday where they popped out from the entire aisle of hangers. I want to like them but they seem so darn thin (which is what they're promoting). My issue with these hangers is they claim to double or triple your closet space. First of all, the traditional homeowner is going to have plastic hangers or the wire hangers you get from the dry cleaners (which are already pretty thin). The only way these hangers would maximize your closet space is if you switch from using these lust-worthy hangers from the Container Store. And I have a sneaking suspicion that if someone is using thick, walnut hangers, they've got a big enough closet for their fancy clothes. I honestly hate hanging up my clothes. That's why I have a huge dresser. More than half of my clothes go directly from the dryer to my dresser drawers (and I couldn't be happier). Plus, my closet is the size of a telephone booth--not kidding. I'll take a photo soon to prove it.
