How do you store your bags or SLG's?

I like that idea for the clothing part....don't want to see mish mosh of clothing types, colors, etc. With the bags, I think I DO want to see, hence, thinking of putting behind glass.
Here's my motivation ...

Wow! Her collection is gorgeous but excessive. I think that many bags would stress me out.

I want to plan a boutique closet so bad, maybe when my kiddos are a bit older.

Quite the collection you have there, @evesorto . :coolio: Very excited to see what comes up in this thread.:tup:

For some reason, Jamie's closet reminds me of the pre-loved designer chain stores you see throughout Hong Kong and Japan. I posted this on the Asians & Hermes thread (link here) ages ago but I think this closet looks much better than Jamie's. The black frame gives the space definition, especially with all the glass in the room. The pictures belong to a formerly public account that's now private.

Yes, I think that is what I am going for - something like a boutique. I want the glass because I want to get rid of all of the dust bags and boxes and have the bags out; I don't want them to get dusty though.. To me, the bags are like little pieces of art and I want to see them.
I imagine that this is going to take about 6 months to do but, I'll post as it moves along. My husband has to clear out the room and then do sheet rock, etc. I think that I am going to contract out the "closet" part for shelves, mirrors, etc.I guess they could give me some ideas, too.
Today I am going to inventory and try to think how I'd like to see things grouped. The one thing that is different with the Jamie Chua closet is all the bags are the same, so no need to organize, except by color. I also need to figure out how deep I want the shelves. I think because of keepalls, I need to go two feet deep. I think that shoes need to be about one foot deep (I'm 39.5/40).
Someone mentioned putting in mirrored doors - I love that idea for the clothing. I don't really enjoy the look of clothing on hangers.
Thanks everyone for your input. Love the ideas.

Here are the little guys and scarves. I'm imagining some sort of a glass top dresser with a panel that lifts up so that wallets, etc are displayed but easily accessible. It will be nice to be done with dust bags and boxes :)

I used to think I'd like all my clothes to be immediately visible behind glass but the mirror look is beautiful and clean, and would make the space look much bigger. Photo from Houzz.

You have many unique pieces. I favour slide out drawers if you have the room. Something like this, only with less compartments as you'll probably want the ability to move things around to change the display. Photos from Houzz.

I love those pics!! That is what I am envisioning. I also would love a piece like this, with a bench. I imagine I can special order a piece that incorporates both.

I think my house style will fit the closet - I have a lot of glass and mirror (and a little brass because hey, I love the eighties!!)
That piece of furniture is very nice - I love the little pull out shelf!
 
Here are the shoes from the LV line. Outside of these, I wear mostly wedge sneakers and have about 8 pairs, in different colors (of course:).
I'm now rethinking the "empty wall" - maybe it needs to be a shoe wall w/ twelve inch shelves. I hope it's not too much to have something on every wall.

I’m glad people have been mentioning Houzz. I came here to suggest that website! You seriously should go there and check if you haven’t yet. Search photos of “closet” or “walk in closet” or “mirror door” or “shelving” or “bag shelf” or anything your heart desires. It’s the BEST site for photo inspiration when it comes to home design.

It was an invaluable reference when we renovated our house. From paint color to flooring to light fixture. Check it out!
