No. 106 // CLOSET SPACE

THROWBACK //

Today we woke up to some much needed rain here in NYC. I am throwing it back to this rainy day outfit, a classic combo of pink Converse, denim overalls, and stripes!

Question: Where on earth do you store all your clothing, shoes, and accessories? I also live in NYC and have so little space. Do you have a storage unit?

Answer: When I was living in the West Village I felt like I was drowning in my things. When I was looking to move, I specifically wanted a two bedroom so I could use one room as a closet/office. The apartment I live in now allows me to fit everything neatly into one back bedroom and close the door if I don’t want to see all my lovely rolling racks and shoe boxes! I choose not use a storage unit because I am very much an ‘out of sight out of mind’ type of person. I much prefer to clean out my closet and sell/donate items versus paying for additional space that I know I won’t access very often. As I mentioned in a post earlier, I am also getting into the habit of borrowing more samples, especially occasion dresses, so I am not accumulating things I don’t truly need. If I ever get around to organizing my closet a bit better, I will put together a little tour!

Usually I am not a cropped sweater lover, but I fell in love with this pink/rust color combo!
