Hi! I’m the editor of a storied young women’s fashion magazine by day and a shopping addict/obsessive bargain hunter by night, and a mom to two little babies 24/7. Despite working in the fashion and beauty world, I rarely buy anything full price and love nothing more than the hunt for the perfect tee, a better price on the heels I’ve been eyeing, or the perfect vintage bag. I started closetfulofclothes.com as a creative outlet to share my love of shopping, style inspo, and all the secrets I have learned during my career.
I also found a hole in the blogging world – I wanted a blog that helped real women dress for the lives they want to live and for working moms like myself who live two lives – one at the office and one at home rolling around with their kids. Like pretty much every person ever, I’ve struggled with the cruel irony of having a “closetful of clothes” and nothing to wear, and I wanted to help myself and others to shop smarter, get creative with their closets, and learn the style secrets that the stylish editors and bloggers I work with know. Hence, the name Closetful of Clothes.
As the blog grew, so did my family, and now as a working mom of two little ones, James, 3, and Charlotte, 9 months, I’ve found myself with a whole new set of needs – style and otherwise. And what started as a style blog aimed to help women get dressed has morphed into a lifestyle blog covering everything from motherhood and our renovation and interior design journey to travel, beauty, family, even some cooking. Above all, this is my journey trying to survive the crazy world that is being a busy working mom and the place where I can share all the fabulous finds and deals and steals I discover during midnight nursing sessions.

I am a Nigerian and I am in need of a real definition of my style. I know what I want its just the shopping that leaves me exhausted
please stop showing olivia palermo. she’s done absolutely nothing to make her way in the world and is shallow. i thought your site was great, but please find some realistic people. it’s bad enough she’s ruined banana republic for us. done shopping there.
I Hello I just saw the post from Julia above and I have to completely disagree with her. Olivia Palermo as a style icon and style forward dresser is a daily masterclass in how to get it right. You don’t have to agree with her politics, nor her personality etc. Just look and observe- nothing more if that’s how you feel….We can learn from the looks she creates and adapt them to the places you like to shop in….
Your shoes and boots all have such high heels. Soon into my working career I shucked those bad boys in favor of being comfortable while I got my work done. How can you tolerate those heels day in and day out?
Admittedly, I still salivate over heels. But my mind is aware there were 500 years of Chinese foot binding, and years past retirement my body appreciates a good, comfortable shoe more than ever. Yet the struggle between looks good and feels good continues….
Where did you find the “cubies” to separate purses on the shelf?
