Keep Your Handbags Organized By Stealing Hailey Bieber's Stylish Solution
When it comes to fashion — and stylish trends in general — Hailey Bieber is often a reliable source for inspiration. The Rhode Beauty founder has gone viral for her "chocolate brown" hair and "lemon drop" nails in the past, so it's no surprise that she has high-end decor taste, too. In a "get ready with me" YouTube video, you can see how luxurious her aesthetic is, with a gorgeous shelf behind her, neatly keeping her impressive assortment of handbags displayed. The built-in shelf, which appears to be a tall, wooden bookcase, almost feels like you just walked into a designer boutique. If you're wondering how you can achieve her storage solution to keep your own collection of handbags organized while still looking effortlessly stylish, there are different ways to get the look that don't involve a designer budget.
In the video, Bieber's wooden, built-in shelves contrast with her white-painted room. It's essentially similar to a traditional bookcase, with the top shelf being slightly shorter in height than the rest of the shelves. If you're handy, you can DIY your own built-in cabinetry, like recreating this stylish storage in your home with scrap wood. This is a great path to take, especially since you have more freedom and flexibility in installing exact dimensions to ensure cohesiveness in any space. Keep in mind, however, that the cost of DIYing built-in shelves can get expensive.
To achieve this look, consider furniture retailers like IKEA or Amazon. They offer affordable shelving units that look similar to Bieber's and blend into your space with customizable features. Be on the lookout for a tall, divided, and modular shelving unit with multiple tiers in a light-toned wood shade.
How to get Hailey Bieber's built-in shelves on a budget
IKEA is known for its affordable and functional storage solutions, and when it comes to built-in shelves, the popular furniture warehouse has a massive selection. Plus, its furniture pieces are intentionally designed to be customizable so they can either blend seamlessly into your home's original architecture or stand out like in Bieber's "get ready with me" video. Though it's hard to tell from the video, if you look closely, it appears Bieber's designer, store-inspired display has seven horizontal shelves on either side of the divider. Based on these design features, the BILLY bookcase in the color "oak effect" is a worthy dupe. The popular bookcase has 12 shelves with a divider. While customization is what makes the BILLY bookcase stand out, it's important to note that its dimensions are fixed, meaning you don't have the same amount of flexibility for a built-in look.
You can leave the bookcase as is, but there are a variety of different sizes in the BILLY collection that can be customized to your area and overall satisfaction. For example, the BILLY bookcase that is 15 ¾ inches wide, 11 inches long, and 79 ½ inches high has square compartments, as opposed to the traditional bookcase layout, and can easily display your handbag collection. Either way, both products could be a great, affordable foundation if you prefer to put your woodworking skills to good use. This can be done by attaching the bookcase to a base, then filling in the gaps between each shelf with trim so it all fits seamlessly into your space.
