Harper's Closet

As I was sorting through a massive pile of baby clothes that no longer fit Harper over the weekend, I realized I had never done a post about how I organized her closet that was requested a long time ago. 

To be honest, it was only recently that I organized her closet and made it more functional. I used to get so overwhelmed with the amount of laundry going on each week, that I just threw things into drawers and onto hangers and promised I�d �organize it later,� which, let�s be real, never happenedHarper�s closet is an odd shape and it�s small. In order to really see what�s in it, I wanted to have all of her clothes front and center. To make this happen, I purchased a closet doubler system to add an extra row to the main closet bar. I have this one and this one in there.

I store tees, tanks, tops, cardigans and some onesies on the top bar. On the bottom bar I keep dresses and rompers.

On the right side of the closet, I hang clothes that are currently too big, a few tutus and some of her �fancier� dresses that aren�t worn very often.I keep her leggings, socks, shorts and bloomers/diaper covers in her dresser. That�s also where we keep crib sheets, blankets, some bibs, etc. When she was wearing a lot of onesies as an infant, I had those in there too. I use these fabric boxes from IKEA as drawer dividers to help keep things organized.leggings & shortsbloomers/diaper covers & socks

I'm keeping some of my favorite clothes of Harper's in our storage closet for the time being. I want to have them around if we have a second girl one day. I also have a bunch of gently used and new clothes that I'm donating. 

Hope you have a great day!

Sunday Snaps

Sundays tend to be lazy days for me, but today was full of cleaning. I have been on a cleaning/organization kick lately so I feverishly go through the house and clean and organize everything in my path.  

Now, I'm taking a break and relaxing before I hit the gym for a workout (as if cleaning vigorously wasn't enough!)

I love a nice, clean bathroom countertop.

My MacBook keyboard cover finally came in.  I'm a little disappointed because it's not made for the newest MacBook air model, so it's not as tight over the keys as I'd like it to be, but it will do for now. Better to protect the laptop keys, even if it's a little more difficult to type.  When the new ones come out, I'll get one that's a perfect fit. Mine is by KB Covers.

I also cleaned out my closet today, because believe it or not, it was a mess. Stuff all over the floor, everything out of order. Sometimes, it just gets that way when I don't take the time to keep it organized.

It still shocks me to see how much color and how many prints I have in my closet...

...and how color little color I have in my shoe collection:

Hello black, nude and brown. Ha.  I'd love to get a pair of leopard print heels and also polka dot heels. I love these, by Kate Spade, but don't want to pay that price.

I still have to organize some of my drawers and throw away some stuff that's too old and tattered to wear. Hopefully I'll have the energy to do that tonight. What I do know is that H and Lulu definitely don't have the energy to help. This is their typical Sunday routine. Birds of a feather:

As I mentioned on my Facebook page, I have a fun fall fashion feature coming up on CultureMap...here is a little preview:

Hope you're enjoying your weekend!
