How To Make the Most Of a Tiny Closet Just Like French Women Do

While you desire to one day have a celebrity-inspired mega-closet, the best thing you can do right now is try to maximize and utilize the space you currently ­do have, in the best way possible.

With that in mind, we made a list with some tips on how to make the most of a small closet, just like french women do. With the ever-increasing wardrobe and the limited space that comes as a tradeoff of living in Paris, you need some ideas that are both creative and chic.

Rather than clutter floor space, think upward! Floor-to-ceiling shelving is a great way to store dozens of pairs of shoes.

You can also choose your truly cherished pieces and hang them up on a pretty hanger in other spaces such as the living room or bedroom. Trays of jewelry or racks of sunglasses also make cool decorations.

You can store your bags like Russian dolls, putting smaller ones inside bigger ones. This helps the bigger styles keep their shape but also saves space.

In an effort to keep your closet organized, your pieces can be stored thematically by color and garment type. Anything that doesn't adhere to the hanging categories goes in drawers. This keeps everything organized and easy to access without making a huge mess. Small spaces are prone to quicker chaos!

You can pop up some clothing racks wherever you have some space, next to your front door or in the bedroom. Maximizing otherwise empty space means your wardrobe itself will stay less cluttered! And again, a decorative element too in the house!
