"  It might look slightly unkempt and packed from ceiling to floor, but it&amp;#039;s also my happy place. My closet: the place where I stand for way too long each morning debating what to wear. I live in an older home and have only one closet. Technically, I suppose it&amp;#039;s considered a walk-in closet \u2014 but only one person can walk in it at a time (and it&amp;#039;s a tight fit). Between the size of the space and my abundant wardrobe, I can only store two seasons worth of stuff at a time. Currently, my fall and winter clothes are downstairs in three storage bins. Yes, three. I&amp;#039;ve told you, I really like to shop. To cut down on the time it takes to pick out an outfit, my clothes are organized by two categories: color and type. Tops and sweaters are split into work and non-work, and kept separate from pants, skirts, dresses and blazers. When I first decided to arrange my closet by color, even I thought it was a little much. Now, it makes getting dressed in the morning so much easier \u2014 and who doesn&amp;#039;t love looking at a pretty rainbow of clothes? Gym clothes, PJs, sweats, underwear and socks all get their own dresser drawers. Okay, if I&amp;#039;m being honest, sweats and other comfy clothes get three drawers. Can&amp;#039;t have enough yoga pants, after all. And shoes \u2014 well, those are another story. Usually the current favorites are kept out, partly because I&amp;#039;m always reaching for the same ones in the morning, but more because I don&amp;#039;t have any more room in my hanging shoe organizer. How do you organize your closet? I&amp;#039;m always looking for new ways to save on space, and I&amp;#039;d love to hear your tips!
