Kendall Jenner is primarily known for her work in fashion and reality television, but the model is generating buzz in the interior design world as well. Publications such as Architectural Digest have spotlighted her homes on a few occasions, leading to a slew of interest in how to achieve her signature, lived-in look. Jenner recently invited Vogue to tour her walk-in closet and talk fashion. But she inadvertently flexed her interior design skills yet again, boasting an extremely chic yet functional set up in which she categorized clothing into groups depending on length, color, and style. We picked up on a few key walk-in closet tricks you can steal to elevate your own space.

"I am insanely organized. It's like actually a pleasure and obsession of mine," Jenner said during the tour of her closet with Vogue. "So my closets are categorized." She went on to explain that she prefers to categorize all of her tops into three groups: tank tops, long sleeves, and short sleeves respectively. She separates out the pants and jackets into different sections, too. Her closet features longer spaces for her pants and long coats to aid in optimal organizational flow and display. Everything is color coordinated too. She keeps mostly neutrals with minimal statement colors, which lends to the cohesive appearance of the space. Jenner also carved out dedicated storage for her bags and shoes, too, styling them on sleek shelves and hooks throughout the closet. Lucky for us, you don't need to be a global phenom to achieve this tier of closet storage perfection. You can design your dream walk-in closet with some simple updates and reconfiguration.

As we break down the anatomy of Kendall Jenner's closet, one thing becomes abundantly clear: Everything has its place. Her tall shoes, clutch bags, and leather jackets all have a designated zone. To achieve this level of order, start by gutting your closet. Take stock of all your clothes and accessories. Donate anything that doesn't "spark joy" as advised by organizational guru Marie Kondo. This will help in the mission to keep your walk-in closet orderly and cut down on clutter.

Now turn your attention toward the closet itself. Jenner's closet has ample shelving and wardrobe rods at varying heights to accommodate different clothing shapes and lengths. This is where you can make your space truly bespoke. Install storage elements that cater to the different styles, shapes, and colors of clothing and accessories. Perhaps you have a lot of belts. You could install a specialized belt rack shelf. If you have a lot of bags like Jenner, you can install a wall of shelves to display them neatly and in a color-coordinated manner, inserting smaller bags in place like books.

You don't have to completely overhaul your closet to achieve a more organized walk-in closet. There are plenty of budget-friendly space saving hacks you can implement as well as styling tips to make the space look more cohesive. To start, invest in matching hangers. Jenner goes with all-black hangers but you can opt for bamboo, metal, or white ones. Use hangers with clips such as Nature Smile Hangers to display your pants and skirts neatly. You can also use shoe inserts like Ruisita Boot Shapers to keep your tall boots standing upright.
