“Any item in your wardrobe should satisfy one of two criteria – utility or joy.” Stacy London

Is pulling out shoes, dresses, jewelry or even underwear from your closet a simple task – or one that brings you joy?

You may be…

Does your messy reach in closet bum you out? Do you suffer from “my-closet-is-too-small” disease? Then you visit Pinterest and see the glamour walk in closets of the stars with chandeliers, chaise lounges and spacious islands in the center and say to yourself, “girlfriend, that is so far from my life!” Unfortunately, you may need to take the advice of the 70’s song from Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young – “If you can’t be with the one you love…
