Crowded closet?

When you have lots of clothes, what's the simplest way to access this season's clothing? One idea is to keep your out-of-season wardrobe somewhere else. Keep your current garments within easy reach. How? Store last year's clothes in clear plastic boxes. Put the boxes on shelves that you can install above your closet rod. Or simply remove the rod and add wire shelving that can accommodate both boxes and hanging clothes.
