In the Closet

We're expecting a huge snowstorm in the Northeast this weekend.  That means many will be house bound with nothing to do but eat and watch trashy tv.  If you're looking for an alternative, I suggest a little closet cleaning.  You could get a jump start on organizing your spring wardrobe and donate your castoffs to charity. Here are a few chic closets to get you motivated including one designed by Nate Berkus above.  If you need more, you can check my old posts here and here. 

Whether you like her or not, Kim Kardashian has an amazing closet.

This is actually the Sid Mashburn store in Atlanta but it's a great design idea for a closet.

All About Eva

We've seen the closet of Vivre founder Eva Jeanbart-Lorenzotti in Domino magazine and all over the internet but not many photos of the rest of the apartment.  I recently came across a few on the blog of the Vintage and Modern blog that had me searching for more.  I'm surprised that one of the American shelter magazines haven't shot it yet.  It would be fun to see more of it besides the enviable closet. 

UPDATE: I was asked to remove some photos from another magazine which is why this post is now smaller.

In the Closet

I'm off to meet New York Closet Company at one of my projects so we can plan out the dressing room. For inspiration, I'll be taking along the March 2010 issue of Canadian House & Home magazine that featured not one, not two, not three, but four fabulous closets! The pièce de résistance being the "dreamy dressing room" of Kelly Wearstler. I'll be staying at the Avalon Hotel in Beverly Hills which she recently redesigned when I am in Los Angeles so I will soon have more of her work to share with you! Bon Weekend!

I love the light and airy feel of this closet and the details of the built-ins.

Every dressing room should include a chair for putting on your shoes or holding a handbag.

Here is a look inside Kelly Wearstler's enviable dressing room with what I assume is a carpet of her own design.

I love the idea of adding dividers to keep bags upright and neat. My shelf of clutches looks like a jumbled mess unlike this one!

Kelly's collection of hats and shoes are as colorful as her design work and her new book! Wonder what size she wear.

My client has a lot of jewelry so we'll definitely be planning jewelry drawers that will be lined with velvet just like Kelly's.

Since black has become a popular color in the design world, it's no wonder that it has extended into the closet. It looks really elegant and we're also going to add a chandelier to my client's dressing room. You just have to make sure it gives off enough light so you can see what you're picking out in the morning! The closet below is more clean lined and would look great in modern apartment.
