Yeah, you need those four pairs of faux-leather leggings and won't be choosing a favorite, (though we all know the fave).
1. Some legging organizing hangers so you can tell the differences between all your black leggings, like the number of pockets or waist height. It's hard to tell which are the high-waisted ones you prefer for yoga when they're folded up in a drawer!
Each hanger holds 10 pairs of leggings. After putting these in several stories, I finally bought a pair and my gosh, just using one legitimately freed up a third of a drawer. But because it came with two hangers, I'm using the other one for my nice scarves! (I use tissue paper in between the clamps and my actual scarves.)
Promising review:"Yes...I have too many clothes. I LOVE my leggings. These saved me soooo much room! Now I have much more space, AND I can see them all easier." — Larry Seymour

2. And some Wonder Hangers that'll *triple* your closet storage space out of seemingly thin air. You've for sure seen 'em on TikTok.

Check out how they work on TikTok! And PS: Wonder Hanger is a small biz!
Promising review:"I wish I had taken the time to take a before and after pic because I have so much more room in there now than I did before. I found the cutest tops in there that I had completely forgotten about because my clothes were crammed in the closet so tightly. Most of the time, I felt like I had nothing to wear, LOL, and now, I know exactly what I have, and it's even organized by sleeve length and color. I would definitely buy again and actually plan to buy more for my husband and children to use as well." — Mariko Lamb
Get 10 from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in three colors and packs of 10 or 24).
3. And a similar pair of pants hangers with a nonslip covering on the hangers so you can take a gander at which pair of black jeans you wanna slip into today.
4. A bra/tank organizer in case your drawers are too far gone and you need to be able to find that specific bra that fits under the neckline that specific dress.
Amazon
Promising review: "Can't believe how AMAZING these are!!! these have helped me save so much space in my closet. If you are thinking of getting these, don't hesitate. They are very very sturdy and I have many items on them and they have not broken or bent. I would give it more stars if it was possible." — Continental traveler
Get it from Amazon for $16.99.
5. Or a steel tank top hanger to finally hold your favorite tanks and camis in a way that's more easily searchable than rolled up in your drawers.
Reviewers also use this for storing bras.
Promising review:"I love the crap out of this thing! I have so many camis that I use as undershirts for work and they were always being folded up and crammed into a drawer, taking up way too much space. After putting away half of my shirts on this two-pack, I knew I needed to buy another pack! It's so easy to take the shirts on and off without messing around with any of the others. This organizer is perfect for my needs in freeing up a drawer and taking up little space in my closet." — Tessa
Get a three-pack from Amazon for $15.75.
6. A pants/skirts hanger with clips that'll help you ~waterfall~ six bottom styling actions at once! I have a couple of these in my closet and it's one of the handiest closet organizers I own. I have one for faux-leather pants (yes, I like options) and another for skirts and skorts!

Promising review: "I love these hangers. I am able to save so much space in my closet! They are sturdy and very well made." — Danielle Hinshaw
Get four from Amazon for $25.99.
7. A hanging shoe organizer can do so much more in basically every room of your house. The pockets are the perfect size for cold-weather accessories, tights, wallets, wound-up belts, and all kinds of stuff. I have one of these hanging in my coat closet and I fit all kinds of stuff in it!
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I love this product. I have one that is similar for jewelry. I use this in my main bathroom for deodorant, shampoo, hair brushes, toothpaste, perfumes, hand towels, rolled up my counter, nice, and clean and clear." — Cynthia McLeod
Get it from Amazon for $14.99 (available in four colors).
8. An adjustable closet doubler that does exactly what its name says to help fill that dead space below your hanging tops. No need to fish some hand tools for this, though. It simply hooks onto your existing closet rail.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"It has doubled my closet space in my apartment where I can't make any damage in terms of adding another permanent shelf — so this has been a perfect solution. It was easy to assemble and is sturdy. I've had it for a couple of weeks now with no issue. Your closet has to be pretty high for this to work or else your shirts above are going to get caught on the hangers below and for my case, some of my shirts are dragging on the floor — just keep this in mind when you're thinking about purchasing." — Alex
Get it from Amazon for $17.97.
9. Hanging vacuum bags that'll help you find even more closet space. (You thought that was impossible!) This is especially great for bulky items you can hang like coats. I for one am REALLY looking forward to that part of spring when I can confidently store my coats.
Promising review:"Bought these storage bags to pack my winter clothes for summer, and they did the job perfectly. They are large and sturdy. I like its five-hook design. I can store five women's jackets or four big men's jackets in ONE bag. The long bags also fit my dresses. The biggest reason I bought these bags is that I do not need to fold my seasonal clothes; just hang, zip, vacuum, done! Super convenient. Extremely happy with this space bags. I will definitely order more!" — Jia Yan
Get a four-pack from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in four colors).
10. Cap holders so you can clear that shelf in your closet dedicated to your baseball hats.
Amazon
Promising review:"I am a neat freak and purchased this for my husband (I mean myself!) to organize the pile of hats laying around. I love it, as it cleaned up the hat area. He loves it because he can find the hat he needs easily. I hung them up with ease. They work great. I would purchase again for myself or a gift." — Jessica P

Promising review: "I like how well they are made and how you can stack them or mount them on a wall. We used ours for belts and ties and they work great. I own a cleaning business and a client of mine had them in his closet when we were dusting. I asked him where he got them from and then I purchased them as well. I love them! I will be buying more." — Brenda Lamberti
Get it from Amazon for $34.99.
13. A rotating shoe rack can store your shoes, handbags, and more compact accessories in a very small spot of floor space. This'll make shopping your own closet even more appealing.

Promising review:"First of all… this was the easiest thing I've ever put together. It took a few minutes to assemble. Secondly, it is awesome… I've had numerous friends want the info on where I've bought it. We are in the process of remodeling a closet, so we are planning to build shelves around it. But in the meantime, it's going in my office as a plant and book shelf. My mother is planning to purchase one for her pantry in her kitchen. So well worth the money." — lauren
Get it from Amazon for $199.98+ (available in three sizes).
14. A set of hoodie hangers so your most comfortable items can end their reign of terror on your normal clothes hangers or your closet's lone shelf.
Venalli/Etsy, Daniel Boan/BuzzFeed
Venalli is a small Etsy shop based in Overland Park, Kansas.
My colleague Daniel Boan swear by these: "This is one of those "where has this been all my life?!" type of products. I'm a sucker for a soft hoodie, especially ever since my apartment became my office, and now I can wear them 24/7. As much as I love curling up in them, hanging hoodies in the closet is SUCH a pain. They always slip right off my plastic hangers unless I zip them all the way up, so they usually just end up thrown over a random chair (or that mini elliptical I bought in March 2020 and have used a total of two times 😬). These little hook-shaped hangers are the storage miracle I never knew I needed. Now I can just hang my sweatshirts and jackets by the hood and easily grab them when I need them — no zipping or folding necessary! Best of all, the pile of random hoodies on my chair has disappeared. I'm keeping the mini elliptical covered, though."
Get a pack of 10 from Venalli on Etsy for $19.99.
15. A "portable closet" that some reviewers have used *in* a closet as an organizing system. But it really shines with its intended use as an outside-of-closet organizing solution where 1) a closet doesn't exist or 2) your fashionista status has outgrown said closet, and you've gotta do SOMETHING with your stuff in the meantime.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I moved into a new apartment with limited closet space, and this was easy to put together and sturdy. Just what I needed." — Amanda Short
Get it from Amazon for $43.99+ (available in five configurations and three colors).
16. Some slim-fitting velvet hangers for a VERY simple switch for a lot more room in your closet. Sorry, plastic coat hangers! You're no longer welcome here.
www.amazon.com
Promising review:"You get twice the amount of space in your closet. Highly recommend them for neat freaks and small closet spaces." — Kinsley P
Get 50 flocked hangers on Amazon for $24.19+ (available in five colors).
17. A tie holder that'll store as many as 20 ties and keep them in tip-top shape in between wears. Go ahead, buy a couple. Dozen.
Amazon
Promising review:"Does pretty good. Holds 20 ties each. Comes with two racks. It holds them pretty snugly. They seem durable. I've probably got 5-7lbs of ties on each. Organizes them beautifully." — Jabbalaugh
Get a pair from Amazon for $8.99.
18. A shirt folder to make all of your stacks of clothing even crisper and tidier.
www.amazon.com

Makes nice, neat stacks of T-shirts! If you are a bit of an organization and neat freak — THIS PRODUCT IS FOR YOU!!! Love it!" — Cynthia L. Weisert
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in five colors).
19. Or if you'd like to cut to the chase and want even easier access to your folded shirts, an Ezstax closet organizer *and* shirt folder can turn that pile of shirts into an orderly display you can flip through to find that shirt dead in the middle of the stack that you wanna wear today.
ThreadStax, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"Love this. I bought the 20-pack. I love clothes, and I'm a neat freak without a lot of closet space. Now I can store my shirts and camis in my closet shelves and can see and access each one individually. Wish they were more affordable, or I'd buy even more!" — Wendy I. Smith
Get a 20-pack from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in two sizes and five multi-packs).
20. Clip-on shelf dividers as a topple-free solution for keeping your sweatshirts, gym clothes, and other drawer overflow in neat piles. (Those hoods always mess up other sweatshirt organizing options!)
Amazon

Get a set of eight from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in three quantities).
21. A genius T-shirt roll holder to move some shirts from hangers or drawers to an unused door back *or* front.
Mallory Mower / BuzzFeed
The Roll Keeper is owned by Kelso, Washington's resident crafter, Traci. Traci has been crafting for over 40 years and created her storage design to help organize vinyl, soon realizing that it was the perfect organization solution for much more. Her shop has versions for bottles, wrapping paper, pens, and more. Don't miss checking out this small business!
My colleague Mallory Mower owns this and loves it:
"Before getting this I was driving myself up the wall with my bad folding habits. I basically shoved all my shirts into the storage drawers under my bed, because I have a teeny tiny closet (the picture above gives you a solid idea of how small it is). This has given me a massive amount of clothing storage I didn't have before. The quality is stellar and Traci is 10/10 the most thoughtful person I've purchased an Etsy product from!"
22. A scarf organizer can help you remember which scarves you actually own...rather than assuming that you left that one pashmina in a hotel room in who knows where only to find it on your closet floor a year later.
www.amazon.com
Can hold 23 scarves! DecoBrothers is a small biz specializing in all sorts of home-organizing solutions.

23. Drawer organizers so you can finally find that one pair of nude-colored underwear for that dress you're wearing to a picnic. (Truly, you can never have too many pairs of nude undies.)

Each set comes with four bins: a six-cell (for scarves, hankies, and ties), an eight-cell (for undies), a seven-cell (for bras), and a 24-cell (for socks). They're also collapsable and fold flat if you need to store them away!
Promising review:"I am a neat freak so these were right up my alley. They are great organizers for my socks, undies and some of my beauty products. Not super sturdy but still pleased with this product and will most likely order a few more for organizing other drawers." — Kelley Anderson
Get the set of four from Amazon for $15.97 (available in seven colors).
24. A space-saving retractable clothes rack your laundry room has been yearning for since you first hung up a shirt in there. It can buy you a little extra clothing storage space and even give you a spot to plan out your week's worth of work outfits or outfit combos for an upcoming trip!
www.amazon.com
Promising reviews:"Amazing quality. Perfect for neat freaks! We got this for our small laundry room. This is the perfect answer to both small spaces and the desire for clean lines. It's sturdy and holds about 20 items. When we are not using it, it folds so darn neatly. Looks awesome and is easy to install. Would totally get more for other rooms. I am thinking guest rooms." — linda sloan

25. And a trio of clothes storage bags where you can stuff a bunch of stuff that doesn't currently fit, is seasonal, or you just need to get out of the way right now. They have a handy window where you can see what's inside before you open it up. Reviewers say they fit a LOT.
www.amazon.com
Promising review: "Durable and convenient storage bags that fit in closets and are also stackable in a common area. Thick, clear plastic area for easy viewing of what is inside but gives privacy. Easy to use handles." — JayJay
