Closet Overhaul

There's something about a new year that makes me(and most everyone in blogland) think about organizing and purging.  I dream of having a gorgeous organized closet like this one that I've seen all over the blogosphere.

I don't know if it's the shoes or the fun, vibrant color used in that closet, but I just love that image.  If you remember my shoe closet that I posted about here, you know I love both shoes and color.

You can't talk about closets without thinking about Carrie's iconic closet.

How great would it be to have space for a fainting couch and chandelier?

Or what about this gorgeous quatrefoil pendant and large mirror topped island?

And wouldn't it be a dream to have all your purses lined up and on display?

It'd be nice to have one of those giant sized closets that could double as a chichi boutique,

but the reality is that I have a wall of reach-in closets and it's time to purge.  I don't work outside of the home and haven't since SB was born.  Why do I need a dozen blazers?  It's time to get rid of the just-in-case I lose the weight clothes, too.  I will never be a size 0 again, and it's ok to accept that and move on.  And yes, even the purses, could use a hard look.  Wish me luck, I'm going through my purses next.

Thanks for popping in and purging with me.
