Building Your Wardrobe

From gear for the slopes to apres ski wear and warm layers, here’s everything you need to pack for a stylish ski getaway.

An organized closet may seem more like a luxury than a necessity, especially if you live in NYC and having a closet is a luxury. But a well edited wardrobe is truly they key to flawless style, especially for those of us who barely have five minutes to think about what to wear, and the first step to editing your wardrobe is to clean out your closet and organize it in a way that makes getting dressed simple and easy.

If you’re like me, you have way too many shoes, and no intention of giving any of them up anytime soon, which is why for part two of my closet cleaning series, we’ll be tackling shoes. Since they take up most of my closet space, I need a good system for organizing them. While over-the-door storage is the space-saving arrangement that makes the most sense for small space dwellers, shelves and cubbies, or better yet a closet just of shoes, would be my ultimate pick were space not an issue, as it allows for you to easily see all your shoes. From there, I prefer to sort by type (pumps, flats, wedges, sandals, sneakers, boots, etc.) and then color-coordinate from there. Here are my favorite ideas and inspiration for organizing your shoes. 

I’ve never really found a great way for storing my bags in a way that makes it easy to find them, keep them in great condition, and swap them out on the reg without tons of effort, so I spent a lot of time in the black hole of Pinterest and researching tons of organizational sites and books to find the best tips for storing purses to help me get all my handbags in order once and for all.
