The dilemma... Part I


I have to apologize, I’ve been sort of MIA for a while.  For those that follow these things, Aesthetics by Katzen was featured by Groupon last month for laser hair removal and after 26 hours, 1000 Groupons were sold!!  It’s exciting but frightening at the same time.  That means 6-7 women working side by side all day long, all week long (AHHHHHH), in a much busier environment that we had just 5 short weeks ago.  However, we are good girls and after a few glasses of wine, the world is right again!!



My Closet Before
On a personal front, I have a considerable dilemma.  I am completely, absolutely, undoubtedly out of closet space.  What is a girl to do?  Like any industrious woman, I tried to take my  husband’s closet.  I mean, really, it made perfectly good sense to me.  He doesn’t need nearly the space that I do, he has a fraction of the shoes and only a handful of jeans.  I on the other hand, have almost 200 pairs of shoes (including my favorite Jimmy Choo’s), 24 pairs of jeans, untold # of dress pants, and suit jackets.  Keeping in mind, I have a work wardrobe that spans from scrubs to dresses and then my weekend wardrobe which consists of glittery fun stuff.  And this is just my winter closet.  (By the way, I clearly recognize that I have a shopping problem, but who can pass up a good deal on a pair of Rock & Republics?)



Think this is in my budget?
In an off moment, my husband joking offered up his closet, and I instantly got excited.  What a great idea, we could knock out the wall between and tada!  I have one big closet and I never need to leave the bedroom.  But, I’m sorry to say, HE WASN’T SERIOUS!  Who says such a thing as a joke.  So now I am trying to come up with the best way to organize everything.  I've considered Space Bags, or a system like they have in the dry cleaners.  Did you ever see the movie Overboard, I would love to have that rotating shoe rack???  At the moment, we have landed on the turning a bedroom into a closet, but wow, to really do that right, it’s expensive..  If anyone out there has any suggestions, please feel free to comment, I’m open to just about anything!!


I guess I need to come clean on my shopping addiction.  The first step is to recognize that you have a problem, so I’ll be sharing my favorite shopping sites in my next blog.  Maybe once I have it all down in writing, I will convince myself that it’s not my closets that I need to work on?
