LET'S LOOK: HOW WE CLEAN OUR CLOSETS

I was hoping this post would motivate me to organize my closet, but sadly I didn't get to it. I even had a snow day yesterday so no excuses. I did get a bunch of other chores done, but closets wasn't one of them. These are not Pinterest worth photos, but real life. I don't really have a system for cleaning my closets. I do purge on a regular basis. My master closet is small and doesn't have room for my clothing for all the seasons, so I switch it out in the spring/summer and fall/winter and do major purges then. I also do the kids' closets a few times a year. 

Here is our coat closet. This one generally stays pretty tidy. My school just had a coat drive so I purged recently. 


This is the upstairs linen closet. Both kids have a basket for their linens. I store our travel tote bags on the top shelf. The rest is just a random assortment.
Here's where the chaos begins. Sometimes I have everything hanging according to color and type (sweater, blouse, etc.). This is not one of those times. Last year I had the top shelves put in and that has been a huge help with storage. Behind the door I have a shoe bag and jewelry organizers on the wall.
That's it! I'm looking forward to reading everyone else's posts about organizing closets. I could use some tips and inspiration!

                                   It has been a BUSY but fun couple of weeks around here. Today is my last day of work for awhile and I'm hoping to enjoy some down time as we head into August. I have lots of favorites to share this Friday start with... 1. ENGLISH FACTORY DRESSES: My friend has this dress and it's adorable on her. I had my eye on it for awhile and pulled the trigger when it went sale. I can't wait to wear it this weekend! Sunni Color Block Dress 2. BASEBALL LIFESTYLE : My son Jack is very into this Baseball Lifestyle 101 brand. It's all the rage with the baseball players. He typically wears hand me downs so I treated him to these shorts in blue and pink and the short sleeve hoodie. Baseball Shorts 3. CHERRIES: My obsession with cherries continues. I picked up this straw bag at a local boutique, a cute tank at Old Navy, and some fun items at Five Below.  Old Navy Cherry Tank ...
August 22, 2025 1. GIRL TIME: I spent a few days in the Hamptons with my mom this week. Brian and the kids stayed home since sports have already kicked off. Even though Mom lives with us now, we haven’t had much one-on-one time, so it was really nice to catch up. My friend Carrie was also out there solo, so we squeezed in lots of shopping! Such a nice little break before the craziness starts next week. 2. OOFOS flip flops: One of my neighbors has these and swears by them. I bought them in black and have to admit, they are VERY comfortable. I expect to be wearing these to lost of games in the fall.  Oofos Original Sandal 3. NEW RUGS: Carrie and I were both on the hunt for rugs and I ended up finding this beautiful blue one at HomeSense. The navy, red, and white rug is from Pottery Barn, and I scored it for an amazing deal on Facebook Marketplace! 3. TUCKERNUCK SAMPLE SALE: The semi-annual Tuckernuck sample sale is live and it's sooooo good. There were so many pieces I loved but I...
October 24, 2025 1. GIRL TIME: My college bestie and I took our daughters to the Shawn Mendez concert at Forest Hill Stadium. It was a beautiful night for an outdoor concert and we had a blast! I love that we have daughters the same age and they get along so well.  2. LULUS: Lulus is my go-to spot for dresses. They always have such a great selection at reasonable prices. I usually order a few different styles and sizes to try on, then just keep my favorites. I have two events coming up in November and December, and these two dresses are definite keepers! Loira Midi Dress Celebration Time Navy Dress 3. LOFT: I had some time to kill before the dentist so I popped into Loft. I left with this denim dress...the material is a nice heavier weight and I think it will be super cute with boots. I also got 3 sweaters. Everything is on sale and they offer and additional teacher discount.  Denim Dress Fringe Sweater Floral Sweater Spacedye Sweater 4. SCHOOL PICTURES : We just got our sc...
