Have you ever had one of those weeks, where time felt like it stood still, yet flew by too fast? The past two weeks have been exactly that. We all know the lovely world of adulthood where you live, eat, and breathe work, go to bed, and do it all over again the next day.
I rotate between a few different jobs ( I'm a crazy person who hate monotony) and the past two weeks have be one job after another. I realize I do this to myself, but in the midst of all the adult hootenanny, I've become more motivated to do little projects, in my off time. My biggest project was to tackle the hole that is my closet. My loving and tolerant boyfriend lets me use our second bedroom as a closet and suffers through me using part of his for my store merchandise. My goal was to clean out things to sell, throw or just plain organize.
My first step was to clean off the hoards of clothing and lingerie I had collecting on my sofa. This is the place where my clothing goes to die (not really, but you get the point) and collects in a pile. I put my big girl panties on and dove right in.

So when I say this is a sofa, what I really mean is that this is a place where one could sit, but I prefer to display things instead :) One day I will have a place where I can sit down, relax and admire, but for now, this will do.
My next step was to sort through my racks of clothing to sort what was vintage and what is new, so I could consolidate each on to different racks. This meant I actually had to take things off the racks and re-sort.
I had to stop, for a minute, and snap a picture of my treasure trove of sequined dresses I've been saving for a special occasion. When I buy pieces, vintage and new alike, I always save them for when I need them. That way if I wear a dress even a year after purchasing it, it always feels like something new! These are pieces that I've been saving for such occasions and I can only guess at what fun place I will decide to wear these to :)
My quest in organizing will continue for the next couple of weeks since I'm easily distracted by life's goings on. Wish me luck! Maybe I will even sell a few pieces :)
