By 78 Comments

Guess what everybody?!?!
It’s time for CLOSET CONFESSIONS – the series where you get to know a little bit about one of my blogger buddies AND peek inside her closet!!!!
WooHoo!
Cue the applause!
#weallhaveapeepingtominsideofus
#nooffensetotom

Today we get to know Megan from Honey We’re Home!
Megan is DARLING, she has a cute hubby, a precious kid, and a gorgeous home.
Believe me, we could all hate her if she weren’t SO DANG SWEET!
I met her in real life thru my other bloggy friend Cassie and immediately fell in love with this girl.
And then I saw pics of her closet, and I wanted to move in with her.
This was my plan:  I was just going to curl up in one of her cubbies, and she probably wouldn’t even notice I was there.
When I was there, I would try on all of her shoes….you’ll see what I mean in just a sec….

If you’re one of those (and I’m TOTALLY ONE OF THOSE) that likes peaking into other peoples’ homes, they you for sure want to take a look at her house post HERE.  She goes through and shows you how each room in her house looks different from when the initially moved in to 4 years later.
How soft and cozy does that rug look?

And Megan also has a blog called Honey We’re Healthy!  Check that one out too!

Okay, let’s get started with Megan’s confessions!
From here on out, my commentary will be in italics!

1)  What is the item in your closet that you have the most of?  
Megan:  I’d have to say shoes.  When we built our home and I designed the closet, I made sure to add shoe shelves that could hold about 50 pair of shoes- I figured that should have been enough room, but I still have some overflow. 
me:  #jealous
#happyforyou,buttotallyjealous 
#butreally,happyforyou
#ipromise 
😉

2) What is the single most worn item in your closet? 
Megan:  For sure my flip flops and Gap jean shorts!  I live in those most of the time.

me:  Megan has a crazy good body (I hope it’s not weird that I’m saying that…but whatever…she does), and if I were her I’d pretty much ditch the shorts and find an excuse to just walk around in a bikini.  A TRIANGLE bikini (that one is for you Narci).  🙂

Megan, my most worn item in my closet ALL YEAR LONG are hands down and no contest my MUST HAVE jeans.
My exact pair from 2013 are sold out, but you can find the 2014 distressed skinny jean version HERE (great with tall boots) and the 2014 distressed cuffed version HERE (great with booties and flats).  There is also a pair of non-distressed cuffed jeans that are dark wash that you can find HERE.
I’m telling you, these jeans are awesome, and you can’t beat the price.

3) Favorite pair of shoes? 
 Megan:  My favorite shoes are my Michael Kors knee-high boots that I’ve had forever, but don’t get to wear that often because Houston only has a few months of cold weather. 

Me:  Megan, I don’t have any knee high boots, but I was thinking that I might put a pair on my Christmas list!  I think I would be all sorts of SASSY in them.
I would WORK IT.
Here are some I found that I’m loving…
hinge boot HERE
born boot HERE 
black suede HERE 

 
Tell me you didn’t just sing that.
Oh you didn’t?
Yeah, me either. 


And just in case anybody cares, the most worn shoes in my closet are THESE.  They work in spring, summer, and fall.  I wear them with jeans, with cords, with skirts, and even with cut-offs.  I’m telling you, this pair of flats is legit.

4) Tell us the oldest item in your closet that you still wear. 
Megan:  I’m pretty sure I’ve had these Citizens of Humanity Dita petite bootcut jeans for at least 7 years.  They are my “most comfy-make your butt look great” pair of jeans.  I dig the casual color too. I think they just get better with age.  
They are often sold out, but this pair is similar.

Me:  Megan, you are too stinkin’ cute in those jeans, and look at your cute little top knot!
If you want an inexpensive pair of bootcut jeans, I’ve got a suggestion for you!  
Try THESE.  
They are only $58 and are from the same maker of my MUST HAVE jeans! 
Or if you want designer, click HERE for 21 pairs of designer jeans on sale…some brands are picked over….but good luck!!!!!  You might find a great deal!

5)  Do you have an item in your closet that you can’t get rid of, even though you know you will never wear it again?   
Megan:  Hmmm, if I know I’m never going to wear something again, I let it go. 
 The only thing I still have that I’ll never wear is my wedding dress.  


Me:  Megan, I’m jealous again.
I don’t know why, but I have the hardest time getting rid of clothes…
even if it’s been years since I’ve worn them!  Which could explain the pleated khaki suit pants I just threw away a couple of years ago!  
#i’mnotkidding
#didimentiontheywerepleated
#theywerewrongonsomanylevels
HILARIOUS.

6)  What is your biggest clothing splurge?  Was it worth it?
  Megan:  I try to shop as frugally as possible.  There are too many sales, coupon codes and discounts to not get a great deal!  The jeans and boots I mentioned before are probably my biggest splurges- and worth every penny!

Me:  Megan, Pinterest Told Me To readers would like to suggest you that you cough up $90 and get THIS.  You might question spending that much money, but WE PROMISE you will wear it inside of your house all fall and winter long, and you will wear it out of your house with leggings, jeans, and tall boots. 
 Get it, and then you can thank us all later. 
#trustus
#it’swovenbyangels
#youcan’targuewithallthose5starreviews


7)  Tell us about the best bargain in your closet!   
Megan:  My best bargains are the items I score at Marshall’s. I found these heels there, but also saw them online for only $35.70.


Me:  Megan, we moved into a new house this past weekend, and I’ve been living at Homegoods/TJ Maxx.  Looks like I need to swing through the shoe department too!
Megan:  this dress was a great deal too at under $50! 
 Unfortunately, I think the dress is no longer available. 

Me: Your exact dress is sold out, but I found several options for those interested (and 3 of them are from the same maker!):

kendal faux wrap dress HERE
black faux wrap dress HERE 
floral faux wrap dress HERE 
border print sleeve dress HERE (not Lush, but similar) 
 
8)  If you could buy anything for your closet right now, what would it be?
  Megan:  I’d love to add a faux fur vest to my wardrobe- don’t have one and they are so chic for fall and winter! 

Me: If I ever get brave enough to try and pull of a faux fur vest, I might try THIS two-toned one.  And if any of you out there have a baby girl, you should probably get her one of THESE from Old Navy.  Because duh.


I then asked Megan for any closet organization tips she had!


-My tops are organized into four hanging sections: 1) tanks/sleeveless; 2) cotton tees (long and short); 3) blouses/button down shirts; and 4) sweaters.  
I then organize them by color. 

#gottalovealittleocd 
I have a little OCD in me too Megan.  Sadly, mine manifests itself with stupid things running through my head like DID I SHUT THE GARAGE DOOR?...or DID I BLOW THE CANDLE OUT? ..or DID I LEAVE MY HOT ROLLERS PLUGGED IN ON ACCIDENT? 
 (Yes, I use hot rollers.  No, I’m not 83) 


-I recently switched out all my white plastic hangers for these slim huggable hangers which I love! They save so much space and really keep your clothes from falling off the hanger.  Also, these hangers have rounded ends to prevent those ugly points on your shirts. I had to get used to using them because when you put them in your shirt, they can get caught on the fabric. 

I use these too Megan, and speaking of OCD, I started out by getting like 20 of them to see if I liked them enough (kinda pricey at $1 a hanger) to get them for the entire closet!  But it took about 1 hour for my obsessive tendencies to kick into overdrive and suddenly I HAD TO HAVE AN ENTIRE CLOSET OF HUGGABLE HANGERS.  For about a year I bought about $50 worth every several months and now almost my entire closet is made up of these beauties. 


–I hung my colorful necklaces there using a silver pushpin pushed right into the wall. I tried to keep them level but didn’t measure, just “eyeballed” it. The statement necklaces are hung across two pushpins and the others hang on one.  


–I prefer to hang my sweaters during winter so they aren’t getting smashed and wrinkled


– I use a tie/belt organizer to hang my scarves.  It keeps them tangle and wrinkle free and easy to see.  It’s very strong- holds 14 scarves on one hanger!



Okay ladies.
Now that you’ve heard all about her closet, it’s time to see it!
Get ready to OOOOOH and AHHHHHHHHHHHHH while contemplating setting fire to your own closet.  
Look at those shelves!  Look at that island!  Look at her jewelry!  Look at the light fixture!  That’s right….Oooooh and Ahhhhhhh girls….Oooooooh and Ahhhhhhhhh.
Ooooooooooooh
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I’m not gonna lie, this picture makes my heart go pitter patter.
I mean.
LOVE how she hung the statement necklaces across 2 push pins so she could really see them!  That’s a little bit of genius right there.

Dying.

I’m dead.

Megan, do you do this every week?  If so, I’m super impressed with you!  At least 2 days per week I just pull the outfit I wore off of the chair I last threw it on.
Oh, I’m just kidding.
Kind of.
😉

p.s.  
I got up this morning at 4:30 this morning and coudn’t go back to sleep…so I’m trolling all of the new SALE ITEMS AT NORDSTROM…..
check back at around 5:30 for a new collage of sale items!

First and foremost, I am FLIPPING over THESE boots!  When I highlighted the MK version several weeks ago several of you said you wanted a two-toned boot, but you didn’t want the big “MK” on your boot.  Well, THESE are the perfect solution!  And right now they are only $129.95! 

Click HERE for these little caged leather numbers are PERFECT to transition into fall!  They are 40% OFF and have AMAZING reviews!

Okay!  The collage is done!
 Lucky Brand duster 40% off HERE
Rag and Bone boyfriend jeans 33% off HERE
Free People high/low tunic 40% off HERE
Marc Jacobs leather band watch 33% off HERE 
Sam Edelman boot for 33% off HERE





p.p.s.  
If you follow me on instagram, then you’ve seen a couple of pictures of the new house.
When we got over to the house (just a couple hours after closing) I took THIS shot and posted it to instagram. Lots of you requested for me to do a Closet Confessions, and I totally will!!!!!
I already have a friend lined up for November, but I will do December for sure.
I’m not sure if you can tell or not, but I’m a little bit excited about this closet.
(Follow me on instagram HERE for little snippits from my real life that don’t always make it to the blog!)

 p.p.p.s.  
Do you guys remember our special mama from July?  
Well, Candace was the special mama who we honored with a $1000 shopping spree to Nordstrom!
(You can see the shopping trip HERE.  You can click HERE to read about Candace.)
If you recall, her oldest son has autism and she and her hubby created the organization Counting On Hope to help with therapy and medical expenses.
Do you remember her superhero shirt?
 The back of the shirt reads:
“Sometimes superheroes live in the hearts of small children fighting big battles.”

Well, several of you ordered the t-shirts and took the extra step and sent Candace pics of your little super heroes rocking the t-shirt.
Look at all of the sweet and precious super heroes that are all so brave.
Find these amazing shirts HERE.
Do you have a son, daughter, niece, nephew, cousin, neighbor, friend who would love to receive one of these shirts? What an easy way to let a family member or friend know that you are rooting them on in their journey!

If all of us grown people could have just 1/2 as much courage and strength as these super hero kiddos, the world would be a better place.
Happy Weekend Everybody!  
Have a blast, and do some good!

    Are.you.kidding.me? That's her closet??? It looks nicer than a boutique shop. Ok, I'm officially jealous. I also dig a girl who still rocks her citizen bootcuts. I know we are all about skinny these days but sometimes it's nice to pull out that well-worn pair.

    Holy cow – I am DROOLING over that closet. I think it's bigger than our bedroom! Loved ever minute of it!

    And as always – the PTMT commentary was the greatest 😉

    Oh my! I was not expecting to see my Sweet Sadie today (she's the little blond superhero at the top left of your collage ?)! It made my heart swell up! I'm thankful to you and to Candace for recognizing these little warriors! We go to Dallas Friday for another surgery on her neck (she has 2 rare conditions), and I plan on her rocking that shirt again!! Thanks again ❤❤❤!

    Also, Megan's closet– WHAAATTT?!? That thing is amazing!!

    I've been reading Megans's blog for years. I read both of them actually. I have been head over heels in love with her closet for so long! I could live there and I would totally try on her shoes, I bet we don't wear the same size, but still!!!! Oh and I agree with you, if I had Megan's body I would totally be rocking a teeny bikini every day. It's cold outside, no biggie, I'll put on a parka over my bikini. 🙂 it's probably a good thing for everyone that I don't have her body now that I think about. Lol!

    I really enjoy this series but sometimes there is too much links to shopping and pushing similar items. Yes her dress is cute but I don't need to see a link for 4 similar ones. I enjoy the content of the closet confessions and I love peeking in other peoples homes too but I think the shopping links are overbearing sometimes. Just my opinion. (don't get me wrong I love the shopping suggestions and links but when the post is about someone else's closet I want to read that).

      Hi there! I appreciate your input! It's a hard balance for me. Most people think of this as a style and shopping blog, and sometimes when I have had fewer shoppable links in posts I get comments about that too! Maybe to compromise I can put shopping links for similar items at the end of these type of posts so they don't take away from the Closet Confession! Actually, I think I like that idea!

    Clearly I am not spending enough time buying clothes. My husband needs to see this so he can see I don't have enough! Love all of Megan's clothes, maybe I could just move in there.

      Ha! Guess what I've been doing lately? Shopping for my hubby! Now, not ALL of the deliveries are for me. 🙂 sneaky, huh?! But seriously, I find good deals for him at Nordstrom and I think he really appreciates me buying him things for a change. 🙂

    I love Megan…and her closet…and her clothes…. She really is a sweetheart. I've been following her blog for awhile now. I think I might have drooled a little bit at the first sight of her closet…and her kitchen…oh who am I kidding, her whole house is gorgeous!

    OH MY GOSH. I am subscribing to her ASAP just because of this tour… I must see the rest of the house! Such a genius idea to use two pushpins.. I only use one and always feel like the necklaces are falling off… so smart! Love this feature Sheaffer!

      Darcy, I'm so happy to have you over! Keeping things organized is the OCD in me. I found I had more room than I needed in the closet, so those blank walls are perfect for displaying necklaces. I like to see what I have so I can get more use out of it. 🙂

  20. Megan // Honey We're Home says

    I'm giving you a great big virtual hug through my computer right now Sheaffer! You had me laughing out loud at your comments on this post- "I'm dead." hahahah! 🙂 Thanks so much for having me over. You work so hard on these posts- I can tell- and I know how much effort goes into putting them together. Then, those "counting on hope" babes made me tear up. I have some friends whose 4 year-old son is battling brain cancer. My heart goes out to them and they (and the boy) are so strong and brave. Prayers, prayers, prayers. Much love girlie!

    is that even real life?! It's like straight out of a magazine. Swoon. Love all your commentary between the pictures, so funny. You crack me up Sheaffer, love the "I'm Dead". I love those hangers too, took me forever got enough, and just when I think I have enough, I somehow run out and need to buy 50 more…ugh!

    Such a pretty closet! I have a large, framed & decorated cork board in my closet that I keep necklaces on too, also my larger statement necklaces across 2 pins! :). I also have the same linen, shabby chic jewelry holder that Sheaffer has from hobby lobby & I LUV them both! For the past couple of years I've traded out all of my hangers for those slim, velvet ones similar to those you girls use & I love them! I'm a bit OCD about my organization too, so my closet definitely reflects that! 🙂

    GET a fur vest! You won't be sorry. It is a fabulous way to feel a bit edgy and hot. (Sorry I just said that and was bossy.)
    VESTs are the BEST! Feel free to use that in a banner.

    Seeing Megan's closet and all the amazing clothes, shoes and jewelry she has completely justifies (for me) the thousands of $$'s I have spent buying all of Sheaffer's recommendations the past few months! Whew!

    I was so excited to see Megan's closet on your blog series! I enjoy reading her blog so much. 🙂 I love how organized it is and how she seems to have a distinct sense of her own fashion sense. Also, I'm kicking myself for buying the black version of those hangers a few years ago. Her taupe/cream ones look so amazing!
