Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks?In visiting my daughters a month ago, I noticed they had their closets organized by colors. After looking for ten minutes for a black shell I knew I had, I decided to try it. I usurped one of my daughter's closets for my dresses - as my closet just wasn't big enough to incorporate the new arrangement and I only wear them on Sunday anyway so they hardly need prime space. In the process of reorganizing, I learned a few things.
a. I am boring. Over half of my wardrobe is black or beige.
b. Very few things are multiple colors - (which is a good thing, I guess - as it made sorting them easier)
c. I have tons of duplication. I didn't take a picture of the pant rack - but I must have ten pairs of black pants. I tossed out a large bag of clothes I would never wear again, as I had a better version of the same thing.
I think I need to go shopping! I have nothing in orange.

I have mine organized by color and I love it - I could tell you everything I own probably because of it or if anything is missing! I try to keep Kash's side that way too, but he hasn't seen the light yet so I have to go fix it every once in a while :)
You look good in black and beige! Black just might be my favorite 'color'!
I'm so glad you did your closet that way! It definitely makes things easier to find. Plus you can shop for new colors now. :)
I have a lot of black, too. I love that color.
Yes, orange is on my "need to buy things in" category. I teach dual enrollment for ISU, and I have one t-shirt (hand me down from Ashley) that I wear on the day they come to register. Just not my color I guess. White tops and black tops and pants compete for top honors in my closet, with navy close behind.
