Planning Ahead
"When I bought this house, my first concern was will there be plenty of storage space?" Not a chance. She converted a guest bedroom into a master closet, while shoes and handbags have their own walk-in. Will she make room for husband Kris Humphries's clothes? "Slowly but surely. There have already been a few compromises!"
Kim's Outerwear Collection
The noteworthy fashion junkie converted a guest bedroom into a master closet for her current obsessions, which include Balmain jackets and Alexander McQueen minis.
Kim's Jewelry Box
Kim was devoted to diamonds long before Humphries placed a 20.5-carat sparkler on her finger. Behind lock and key is a cache of extravagant baubles that may one day rival Elizabeth Taylor's. "I love big and chunky pieces," she says, opening drawers filled with chandelier earrings, pavé cuffs, and cocktail rings by fave designers Lorraine Schwartz and Loren Rydinger. "I don't borrow for the red carpet; I'm lucky enough to have my own."
A former professional closet organizer, Kim, 30, shares her top tips: "Always use the same style of hangers throughout," she says, recommending Real Simple Solutions Slimline flocked hangers. Dresses are arranged long to short, and jackets are sorted by texture. And to create a boutique-like vibe, she likes to "showcase the most beautiful" pieces. She also says to "hide T-shirts in a cupboard or drawer. It's so hard to keep them nicely folded." Finally, toss anything that doesn't fit. "I sell those pieces on eBay and donate the proceeds," she says
