When Oprah needed to clean out her "work closet" as she closes up shop at Harpo Studios in Chicago, she gathered a team from O Magazine and The Coveteur to document the process. The Coveteur just published an amazing photo series of Oprah as she KonMari Methods all her Chanel purses from her TV wardrobe over the years.

As seen in the photos, Oprah has an even more impressive collection of heels than we ever imagined. She also stores her Emmys and gold stilettos together, apparently.

This was a major closet clean-out, with Oprah holding onto only the neutral pieces.

"I just don’t need all this intense color, the embellishment, the heels anymore," Oprah told The Coveteur. "When you’re in front of TV cameras every day, you have to stand out, but I’m in a different place now, and those things no longer serve me."

Where did all those heels end up? Get ready, because Oprah's selling 250 of her cast-off pieces in a charity eBay auction starting March 1st through March 4th.
