the art of the dressing room
hello dear friends! it was a very productive day and things are winding down. we’ve been tackling our ‘to do list’ for the AD show and have been doing everything from icky home depot chores like getting baseboards for the show to the fun of shopping for wardrobe. liz is a stylist so it’s been great to have her eye and bRuTaL honesty!
when i got home i started thinking getting organized on every level.
why should closets be any different than an office or bedroom?
dressing rooms and closets are cousins of course but one’s a real room and one’s a plain old dinky closet.
but there’s a lot you can do in unexpected spaces.
create your own boutique and use tiny spaces to the max.
small spaces lend themselves to hyper decor
it’s practically an office. morning headquarters.
it doesn’t have to be much
or it could be a lot
it does have a bit to do with the clothes too
i could eat these
it helps to have a something great to put in a closet.
i don’t have much but what’s there should be the start of a good collection if i get tough.
of course i’d love to fill it with beautiful vintage pieces like this 1914 dress and live in shorts and flip flops! i’m about to step it up a bit though. no time like the present.
ok it’s midnight and i’m off, have a great nuit!
p.s.
i just found this. so random, so not!

“Morning headquarters”–oh how I love that! Spaces like those above would start off your day in a whole new way. And the quote is a great reminder of what matters more than fashion — how you live your life.

One of my favorite posts, yet! I need a bigger closet. I live in an old ’42 Ranch with closets that fit two adult bodies standing shoulder to shoulder. EEEKKKK! I have an extra room that I have been dying to turn into a dressing room closet! I feel very inspired to do so now!

A tiny correction. There were no flapper dresses in the early 1910s. The flapper phenomenon started in 1920. It’s an extraordinary dress, though, and your blog is beautiful!
