TALES FROM THE CLOSET - NEW YORK TIMES

You won't want to miss the cute story by Michelle Skatalla in the New York Times Style Section, May 14, 2009, about organizing her closet with a friend.

Let me be your friend!

Recently a client and I spent 2 hours "shopping" in her closet . . . she had many hidden treasures and it was easy to see that if she never bought another jacket in her life . . . she would be OK.

What I think:

Less REALLY IS MORE - when it comes to closets. Most of us (I am the exception) tend to wear the same couple of things every day - while the other items collect dust and mites. Not healthy!

We are'nt living in the 90's where we bought a garment and planned to wear it for the rest of our lives . . . color and fabrics are improved on year-to-year and (especially for those of us who work every day) comfort and ease (cleaning and wearing) are important.

On the other hand if you have treasures in your closet you aren't wearing - you need ME - I can re-work, re-make, re-energize those treasures.
