1. Closet Island
The purpose of a closet island is twofold. It offers surface area to fold laundry or to organize items you’re preparing to pack for a trip, and its drawers are the perfect spot for keeping all of your jewelry tidy and easy to find.
2. Floor-to-Ceiling Shoe Rack
Think Carrie and Big’s closet at their penthouse apartment in the first “Sex and the City” movie – the place where a bright blue pair of Manolo Blahniks brought the couple back together. This space will keep all of your beauties in sight for easy access.
3. Oversized Mirror
Instead of going back and forth between the closet and bathroom to see how you look before your girl’s night out or date night, complement your closet with a framed, full-length floor mirror. Find one that you can lean against the wall for a trendy look.
4. Seating Area
Choosing the right outfit can be a real feat. If you’re going at it solo, a comfy chaise lounge in the middle of your closet is a welcome addition for resting between trying on options. Or, invite some friends over and make a party out of it. A seating area will really come in handy then.
5. Over-the-Top Lighting
Illuminate your closet in the most glamorous way possible: with a chandelier. Positioning it directly over the seating area will center the space while keeping it bright, cheery and fun.
