Pimp Your Kids’ Closet: Personalization Tour & Tips

Closet-Reveal-Personalize

Color Palette

Since clothes offer plenty of color, texture, pattern, and general visual impact, keep the rest of your closet colors relatively simple and subtle.  For the boys we opted for navy and creme stripes and gold metallic triangles by Urban Walls.

Accessorize

Little details can make a huge impact in a small space.  We added custom drawer pulls to our custom closet system.  They’re perfect for a the toddler-preschooler pair and can be switched out as the boys grow and mature.

Functional Display

Carefully executed closet systems can manage functional storage with a little room left over for fun.  Displaying some of the boys’ heirloom toys creates a completely unique space that belongs to the boys physically and psychologically.

 Sensory Experience

I regularly encourage clients to add welcoming sights, sounds, textures, and even smells to their closet.  It helps to transform the daily dress routine into some welcoming and rejuvenating.  I wanted to help Levi and Oscar identify themselves as non-stinky creatures, which is a feet considering the amount of smelly shoes and dirty diapers that regular visit this closet.  A simple air freshener can help create a fresh environment without introducing the danger of candles.

Back to School for Girls in 15 Items

I believe in early fashion literacy.  And the best way to teach these youngsters to avoid one-to-one outfit pairings (ie one shirt shall always be paired with one pair of pants and nothing else) is the liberal application of wardrobe clusters: layering science, signature style compositions, color equations.  Your sweet tween will have mastered creative clothing strategy before her sneaker ever steps foot in the classroom.

Below a shopping list and theoretical application:

That’s more than two weeks of outfits, no repeats, with change left over for lunch money and fruity scented erasers.

What’s in your daughter’s back to school cluster?  Tell me in the comments.
