My closet is overwhelmed

I hate switching from winter to summer clothes (and back again), so much. I dread it, I put it off, I try to pretend that I can just leave them in their Rubbermaid bins and buy all new clothes instead.

I finally forced myself to preform the dreaded task today, and all I can say is:




My closet is overwhelmed.

I'll admit, I'm a pack rat, I have trouble letting go, even of things I know I haven't worn in ages.
So I decided to follow in the path of so many other fashion bloggers and open up a blog shop.
It is still a work in progress, but I wanted to just start getting some stuff up -- so check it out.

Now, what does one wear to clean their closet?

Hand Made Feeling

Not this. This was a bad idea. I should know better than to accessorize while cleaning. My sliced leather bracelet arrived and I was just excited to wear it. I really love it - the leather is sooooo soft, it just cradles your wrist.

And I'd been wanting to wear my Desigual skirt with the birdcage pumps since the day I bough it, so I did, but they were off for the majority of the day while I fought to fill every possible inch of a Rubbermaid bin with sweaters. I had to sit on it, and the top is really bulging, but I got them all in and now I don't have to think about it until the Fall.

  1. Great outfit! I recommend organizing everything by color -- black pants with black tops, jackets, etc. It helps you find things very easily!

  8. I look sneak peeks into another person's closet - how voyeuristic of me! It's such a chore to clean and organize it, but so necessary.

    Your outfit fits you so well, giving you a perfect hour glass figure. Beautiful! And your bracelet! Sigh!

  13. I hate cleaning out my closet. Luckily, I don't have to pack stuff away though. I'm dreading that day. For now, I can just leave all the winter stuff in my drawers.
