Bringing out the Spring/Summer Clothes + a Little bragging!

Do you switch your Summer & Winter clothes out of your closet?  Until now, I never did.  This was the first time I have had extra closet space to be able to do that.  While living in apts in college and our first few years of marriage, I had to stuff it ALL into one closet.   Now that we don't have any kids, I can use the extra closet space to put the clothes we aren't wearing away.  Less CRAMMED CLOSET = more space and an easier time finding things to wear which also = less clothes I am tempted to buy!  I really struggle feeling like I have nothing to wear when its all crammed into a tiny space.

My closet does NOT look like this...so I have to be creative.

And it definitely doesn't look like this!

I do wish I had this many pair of jeans though.  Don't need them, but it would be fun :)

Honestly, when I look at these celebrity closets I would love the clothes, but that's what what I am coveting after.  I really covet the organization.  It's a struggle for me, but that's the cold, hard truth. 

Ok, though, really.  Now back to the point of my post today.  I think switching your winter and summer clothes out of your closet can be a GREAT way to feel like you have new clothes.  Most weather changes, I feel the need to buy a few new pieces.  I was very surprised this spring that I haven't felt that need!  Bringing all my spring/summer clothes back downstairs really made a huge difference.  I felt like I had all new clothes!!  They weren't hanging in my closet for months in front of my face.  I know girls, its all in my head.  But, seriously, whatever it takes to save some money!!

Now this is actually what my closet looks like. 

It took all I had in me to not fix all the hangers in the closet...this is the real us ;)

MR.P and I were so blessed by the previous owners of our house.  They left their organized closet stuff for us!  We have really enjoyed having specific places for our shoes :)

Ok, now I am just plain bragging.  I was over at my sweet, sweet friend Savannah's house and I asked her if Tori Burch shoes ever went on sale.  I had wanted a pair of gold ones, but these are just not in our budget...and probably won't ever be!!  So she said she actually had a pair that didn't fit her right.  Well, to my surprise she had the exact pair I had wanted!!  So she practically gave them to me!  I was soo excited!  They have barely left my feet ;)

Savannah is always cleaning out her closet and having sales.  If you are interested let me know.  I can definitely help you out!
