Closet Makeover...

In case you missed it...

Switched out my plastic hangers for velvet hangers found at Homesense
Making it work...(new rental space with limited storage)

One night while channel surfing I caught an episode of Million Dollar Closets with LA Closet Design. In the episode Lisa does the Kardashians closets. I was super motivated(closet envy Kris!) to revamp my closet and since I recently moved what better way then to start fresh with my organization. 
I first purchased the pink hangers, but found the velvet rubbed off on my lighter clothing so ended up returning for the beige ones. While I do love how much more space I have with the streamlined hangers, I hate how they misshape the shoulder area of the tops.(would be ideal if they were not as wide.)
Also a sneak peak of my shoe closet...this was an awkward space to fill as the space didn't fit clothing so I opted for my shoes. My flats I had to pile them on top of each other, but mostly these are shoes I don't reach for often so it's not too much of a problem.

Readers any tips on organizing your closet? 
Here's what I did for my makeup revamp...

Nicole Scherzinger for Misguided...

Have you seen the collabo?
Here's my picks...

My Verdict: Praiseworthy. This collection looks HAWT!!! I would expect no less from Nicole. Although without seeing this in person, and trying it on I can't vouch for the quality of fabric or fit. And not everyone has the killer body Nicole has, but if it can tuck and shape and lift in all the right places I say this is a steal! 

Readers are you picking up anything from the collection? If you have please share your thoughts!

Update...Makeup Declutter Completed (For now)

And here's my updated progress of decluttering my makeup...

This is an old Ikea trolley, new version or this
My goal is to eliminate this completely...
While I can do this now, I'm not quite ready to relieve the items in the drawers...(old habits die hard :P)
Top: Travel brushes, eye/lip liners, eyebrow grooming tools, eyelash curlers, eyeshadows, highlighters and bronzers
Middle: False Lashes, hair clips and bobby pins, Q-tips and setting powders
Bottom: Makeup cases, picture frames, sponges
On my vanity...lotions, brushes and tools
Inside: Custom Palettes, eyeshadows/pigments, lipsticks/lip glosses
Inside: Quads, eyeshadow, eyebrows and blushes 

For now this is what I'm happy to keep, however in the future if I'm not using the Chanel quads and MAC pigment samples I'd like to purge those. Also when I find the time to depot my MAC shadows I have an empty palette that needs to be filled. That will make space for the items on my trolley, (eye/lip liners, lip glosses). The tools and extra brushes can fit on top of my vanity and most of them are travel sized brushes which can be put together with my travel essentials.

Readers what is the state of your makeup collection? Any tips and pictures to share?

Lust List ...Tom Ford Lip Sheer Spring 2014

Spotted this on Raeviewer and The Beauty Look Book and have been seriously craving...

With my recent resolution I certainly have been craving a new pick me upper but will hold off until I can purge before purchasing...
But since its a limited edition I'll have to be quick or its gone...


I like pink dune, summer fling and paradisco. It's so hard to choose, as I'm going on swatches based on other peoples pigmentation. Wish the Tom Ford counter was available now, good news is they will be coming to Vancouver!

Readers did you pick up any? Is it worth the $49 USD price tag?
