    How do you store/keep your femme wardrobe...?

    Over the years I have accumulated enough of a femme wardrobe that it fills up a small closet in our guest bedroom. I love having everything all organized and easily accessible for those times that I get to dress.

    It is very disappointing, not to mention a pain in the ass, to have to pack it away whenever we have company stay in the guest room. I am also worried that it might inadvertently get discovered.

    I am in a DADT situation with my wife. And my drab closet just doesn't have the room to move all my femme clothing to.

    Wondering what storage solutions you ladies have with your wardrobe?

    Well i have a couple of boxes in my basement shop with shoes and other accessories. My 70 some dresses hang in the utility room, in a safe location. my middle drawer has my frilly things hose and my bras and girdles are in a box on a high shelf in my side of the closet. When i dress i have to run all over the house to get things ready and the reverse when i go drab. We don't have a big house, but at least the basement is finished.

    I built a closet in the basement for most of my wardrobe. The overflow dresses are in garment bags in the attic. The rest is in a dresser in the bedroom.

    Mine are just in random boxes and suitcases in storage areas. I've been using the vacuum storage bags to keep things from getting mildewy in the summer though.

    I have a walk in closet in the bedroom that I use as an office. It has all of my clothes, not just the femme ones. Since it is used only as an office, I don't have to move anything when people visit.

    I have a closet in the laundry room which I can lock if I have to. I keep my shoes in a large suitcase under the bed in the extra bedroom. This is an improvement over our last place where everything was kept in suitcases.
    I enjoy being a boy, being a GIRL like me!!!

    The same way any girl keeps her clothes.

    In a wardrobe in the bedroom.

    I have some mens trousers and shirts at one end along with a couple of pairs of shoes.
    Work on your elegance,
    and beauty will follow.

    Great question, Cindy....Up until last September I was in a strict DADT situation with my Scarlett clothes stored in a closet in an extra bedroom and still quite a bit stored in a temperature controlled storage unit about 2 blocks from the house.

    Then came a time about two months before we moved into our dream home. I told my wife I didn't want to store Scarlett's wardrobe, heels, boots, booties, makeup, and all jewelry and accessories into my master bedroom closet and one of the four bedroom closets with an entire dresser in the bedroom.

    We had a mini "The Talk" in our new home two months before closing on the new home and then moving in. She gave me the green light to all of the storage space I needed on the inside of our new dream home when it was time to move in. My clothing of Scarlett's is usually kept in suit bags that I had from many purchased of suits from Joseph A. Banks. My position at work required me to wear really nice suits, shirts, ties, and expensive dress shoes. I did a lot of travel to defense contractor's facilities from coast to coast give speeches to high level employees with these companies. So I have plenty of really nice suit bags to store Scarlett's clothing in. Right now none of it is put away in these bags. It's in the extra bedroom closet which has lots of space with double clothing racks in the closet that are 36 inches apart allowing me to store twice the clothing as usual in the closet. My heels and boots are all in their original boxes up above the top rack in the two closets noted above. My wigs, shape wear, tights, hose, jewelry, etc. are all stored in either Nike or Puma shoe boxes up in the top or down in the bottom of those two closets. I've got a lot of running shoes from those companies and don't store any of those shoes in their original boxes.

    The only time now I have to put Scarlett's things away is when on rare occasions when family members are spending a few days at our home on visits. They stay in one of the bedrooms that has none of Scarlett's things in them. That's one thing that is super about our dream home - it's got a ton of closet storage space. I'm sure sooner or later I'll run out of Scarlett space and have to changes items out for new things purchased and sell some of the nicer things on line or take to one of three local consignment shops.

    Well, that's it! Just really happy that gorgeous redhead of mine has accepting my cross dressing and I just can't get my girl on while she's at home which is just fine with me.

    I'm fortunate all my clothes that are in season are in our closets. I have so much though that I do store out of season casual clothes in our garage sealed in storage boxes. The boxes are clear but I don't have secrets.

    Mine are in two boxes in a lock up cabinet in my office at work. My office is mine alone, its locked when I am out. so my stash is accessible but quite safe... alas I am limited to the two boxes which as you all know is never enough, this girl loves to shop!!!

    Interesting comments...all. The one thing that is a bummer about having to move out of the closet in the spare bedroom is how nice and accessible everything is. Plus I can use the whole spare bedroom when I have the opportunity to dress. even has a dresser with a mirror in the room.

    Ilene...I too am obsessive about how my things are organized into my closet. To have to pack things away in boxes will really mess with my sense of "place".

    I have most of my clothes in our front hall closet and my panties in my bureau drawer. I'll be moving my clothes into our closet when we finish an addition and add some much needed closet space.

    All my feminine things are stored in four closets around the house and more draws in the bedroom. Closets are shared with my wife.

    I have my bedroom now with a large closet and a dresser , its much easier than packed in a bin in the basement like before.
    Wanting something is a fantasy which on a long time period clouds your mind and makes you think you need it.

    In a bag under my bed.

    I wish there was some way for it to self destruct in the event of my death.

    Years ago when my wife and I contemplated divorce I moved all my stuff downstairs into my home office. She overtook the master closet during that time and when our spat was over there was no room for my clothes to come back up. When I told my wife in January about my dressing, she made some room in the back of the closet to hang my stuff. I also have a bag with 2 petticoats, panties and bras. I keep some miscellaneous stuff in a box near the 12 foot ceiling. And I have my "work skirt" hanging in the back of my home office (a midi jean skirt).

    Before my wife knew, I would keep her discarded clothes that I liked in her extra clothes totes in the basement, and few other things in a hard to reach drawer in my office. About a year ago was when my "office skirt" started getting hung up in the home office closet since I was wearing it more often.

    I have two dresses and a leather skirt hidden inside suit bags within our walk-in robe, otherwise all of my clothes and hosiery are locked in a small cupboard in the garage. My collection of boots, heels and ballet flats are hidden in a couple of boxes also in the garage. Limited storage space and a DADT relationship stops me from buying more.

    It's a complete yet small spare room for my things now (no bed though, probably the next step), even a mirrored dresser. My clothes were stashed throughout my extensive furniture collection previously! I should check to see if I still have anything stashed!
