20 Times The Kardashians Showed Major OCD Vibes In Their Homes
If you're familiar with a little family known as the Kardashians, you know how, well, how very organized and demanding they can be.
And we're using the word “organized” lightly here. Basically, if you really think about it, the Kardashians and the Jenners actually have some OCD tendencies, especially if you take a look at their real estate properties. Kris, Kim, Khloe (especially Khloe) and the rest of the gang seemingly need everything to be perfect in and order in their households (which we're sure after all their kids were born, everything was thrown into a huge loop).
However, there was some backlash about their organizational skills by people with actual OCD, believing that the family is exploiting the condition. Khloe had published a couple articles “Khlo-C-D” which actually helps her fans and readers “with space-saving organization tips” for their houses and apartment spaces. There was some harsh backlash on Twitter, saying that Khloe was downplaying the real-life OCD and wrongly labeling it as “cute”.
Backlash aside, the family does show some serious tendencies in the way they organize their spaces. From their closets to their food pantries, to even their nurseries, let's take a look on the many ways they took organizing over the top.
25 Khloe's “OCD” Kitchen Pantry
Regardless of how it's labeled, Khloe Kardashian's kitchen is immaculate and seemingly spotless.
She took viewers on a tour of her house and showed off her organizational skills, and the food pantry managed to blow us clean away.
Everything is in a container, especially the cereal. She also likes to keep cereal that her sisters eat at her house as well. “Kylie eats Lucky Charms all the time,” Khloe lovingly said. “She's like a 3-year-old; she only picks out the marshmallows.”
24 The Craziness That Is Khloe's Closet
If you thought her pantry and kitchen are straight up off the charts when it comes to organizational skills, take a look at her color-coded closet. She has her own “workout closet” which is just for her workout gear, a jewelry closet, a place for her purses, sunglasses (over 200 pairs, mind you), and even a space for her hair extensions. “I take a picture of them with my Polaroid and print them out on photo paper,” she said. “And I put a picture, so a visual of everything that is in this box.”
23 Who Really Does This To Their Own Vitamins?
If you didn't know it already, Khloe is obsessed with labels and label makers, thus explaining why even her kitchen is this perfectly in order. “I'm a big label maker, so if Dad likes Dad snacks, put a basket for Dad,” she said. "Have one for Mom."
"I know it's an extra expense to buy containers, but it makes everything so pretty."
Her vitamins seem a little more low maintenance, however, since Khloe preferred to take the little plastic baggie route.
22 And We Thought Khloe's Pantry Was Bad
Not to be outdone by her little sis, Kourtney took fans on a tour through her own kitchen, and, as one would expect, it's pretty dang immaculate too. According to some Snapchat videos, the sisters are in a “Pantry War”. Really, the only difference between the sisters' pantries is that Kourtney keeps all her food in glass containers while Khloe prefers plastic. Khloe has even joked that while her sister's glass container method is more pleasing to the eye, her labels need work.
21 Kylie Also Has A Thing About Her Kitchen
Leave it to all the Kardashian/Jenner kids to be obsessed with their kitchen. Kylie is no different.
A couple years ago (pre-Stormi), Kylie gave fans a glance into her $2.3 million mansion at the time, and fans were able to marvel at her decorating skills (everything was in black and white like mama Kris' place) and had a very clean look to it.
Like her sisters, everything is perfectly organized (I never expect to see any of their places messy), but not overly labeled like Kourtney or Khloe's kitchen.
20 We Need To Talk About These Cookies
We have more than a few questions about these extremely perfect, color-coded cookie jars that seem to be in all the Kardashian/Jenner kitchens. Okay, they look amazing stacked perfectly in those jars but… what happens when people actually want to eat them? Do the girls just replace the eaten cookies with new ones so it doesn't look like someone made a dent in the cookies? Or do they just let them get low and look unorganized? I'm so very confused!
19 Khloe's Refrigerator
Khloe's neat skills never fail to impress. While most people usually have rotted left-overs from last month still sitting around in their refrigerator, Khloe's fridge is cleaner than most.
“There's a method to my madness,” she said when taking fans on a tour of her kitchen.
Everything has its place: from bacon containers to extremely organized drinks on her top shelf. And let's not forget the baking soda on the fridge doors so everything remains smelling so fresh and so clean, clean.
18 Color Coding Shoes
We already got a brief touch of this when we spoke about Khloe's many closets, but we really don't dive into her obsession with color until we hit her shoes (or perhaps just her closet in general). As with her clothes, when it comes with her sneakers or heels, she starts with white and ends with black, all the colors being in the middle. This is the case with her tops so she knows where to go when she's looking to wear a particular color.
17 Kylie's Perfectly Immaculate Bedroom
Everyone likes a clean bedroom. It makes us feel that we have control of our lives when our space is perfectly neat and organized.
Kylie's house, in particular, is massive (so hard to keep clean without a little help) at 13,000-square feet and has eight bedrooms and 11 bathrooms.
And the master bedroom is the most elaborate of all the bedrooms (clearly) and has a splash of color that seems to be missing from the living room or kitchen. We've heard that it's also elaborately baby-proofed as well.
16 … . And Her Extremely Chic Bathroom
Sure, we're jealous of the Kardashian/Jenner houses and closets (most of all) but what about the bathrooms? We believe there's nothing better than a huge master bathtub with a big bay window that overlooks an insanely beautiful landscape. In Kylie's master bathroom, there's just about marble everywhere you look and she even has a window inside her shower. Of course, she has a separate area for her massive vanity and makeup and wig collection. On her reality show, we've actually watched makeover scenes take place here!
15 Time To Discuss Kris Jenner's Bedroom
In the past couple of years, Kris Jenner's six-bedroom mansion has been made-over to keep up with Kris' ever-changing style and taste. Jeff Andrews, an interior designer who also designed some of the girls' houses, upped his game when he revamped Kris' stellar digs.
“Everything works together in harmony,” Andrews says about Kris' color palette of black, white, and gray in her master bedroom.
“Kris likes luxurious and really good-to-touch, tactile things. Her personality is everywhere in her home.”
14 Baby True's Nursery Is Utterly Spotless
Now we know you've all been anxiously waiting to see what the newest additions to the Kardashian/Jenner clan look like. Of course, we mean both baby True (Khloe's little girl) and baby Stormi (Kylie's). But let's take a look at their nursery situations first. As expected, Khloe's True is positively stunning in a soft light pink and white, with sophisticated stuffed animals scattered throughout (not forgetting that big pink stuffed bunny that was used for all three of Kim's kids). It's really high-class.
13 Even The Way They Do Christmas Is Painfully Organized
Every year, fans await eagerly for the Kardashians to drop their latest Christmas cards that feature a majority of the family.
Last year, we were deprived of seeing a very pregnant Kylie (because they were still keeping it all under wraps) but got to see the rest of the family in a 12 Days of Christmas card theme.
Like always, their Christmases are completely stunning and off the wall when it comes to their decoration skills. This goes for ALL the houses, Kylie's included.
12 Kourtney Doesn't Hold Back When It Comes To Her Children
Pink has always seemed to be the theme when it comes to the Kardashian grandchildren (perhaps because a majority of them are granddaughters… which makes sense since Kris has practically all girls herself). Kourtney, of course, heads up her the nursery since she was the first one to have children. This here is Penelope's nursery, which you can see on her website: KourtneyKardashian.com. The site helps you find all of the items she bought that made up the beautiful nursery (sometimes at a cheaper rate, too), which is helpful.
11 The Black & White Theme
We see it in her house(s), so we shouldn't be surprised when we saw it on her short-lived talk show: Kris seems to be obsessed with a black and white pattern in her spaces. Here we see it on the set of her show. The black and white tiling actually reminds us of an old fashion soda pop shop (which probably wasn't her intention, but nevertheless).
Kris has this running theme in her newest revamped house as well.
While she always splashes color here and there, the black and white theme always seems to add a serious amount of class to her spaces.
10 Even Their Ginger Bread Houses Are Immaculate
I mean, are you really too shocked to find out that even the gingerbread houses that the family makes around Christmas time are without any flaws? Nope, you shouldn't be. Back in 2016, Kylie showed off a delectable gingerbread house that featured all the main Kardashian/Jenner names on it… except for a few, which was noted by the ever-present press. Aside from the shade, even the gingerbread house seemed that it was built in the shadow of their own houses (meaning, with extreme care). If we saw the inside of it, chances are it would've had an immaculate closet too.
9 Stormi's Nursery Is Better Than Some High-Rise Penthouses
It was the moment we never thought we needed (basically because we were waiting for the Kardashian clan to actually announce Kylie's pregnancy before she actually gave birth), pictures of Stormi's nursery.
It was always an event whenever a Kardashian nursery was revealed, and Stormi's was spectacular.
Of course, it figured the color pink along with butterflies (thanks to her butterfly loving mama) and a bunch of other fun items. The pink hues match her sisters' babies' nurseries, but that's too be expected due to the arrival of baby girls.
8 Color Coding Is Important To Kim (& Kanye)
We've been focusing a lot on the houses of Khloe, Kourtney, Kylie, and Kris. But what about the most famous Kardashian and her talented husband? Of course, Kim and hubby Kanye West have a $20 million home that is in Hidden Hills (near family, of course). You can tell a Kardashian was involved in choosing the interior décor of the house due to its clean cut look with a splash of color here and there. The color patterns surely show some OCD tendencies (which we're positive that Kim has herself).
7 Crisp & Clean Cut Bathrooms
If you want to spy some OCD tendencies outside of the kitchen and closet, you always look toward the bathroom, especially the master bathroom. We don't think you should be surprised that Kim with a clean-cut look (to match the rest of the house) but also chose a romantic, almost 1920's theme here with their bathtub.
Like her sisters and mother, she went with an all marble design.
She has certainly stepped back from her more over-the-top-princess interior that she had at her mom's house.
6 Kim Went Wild When Decorating North's Nursey
Kim did an about-face when designing North's nursery, which was a far cry than the spiffy and baby pink that her sisters chose to do when their daughters were born. Kim opted for an all-white nursery (talk about OCD… and talk about a NOT baby friendly color), which didn't sit too well with Kourtney, who had her reservations about the nursery. “If you walked home and you were coming in here with the baby, would you want to 'oh, look at this steamer… look at this table in the middle of the room,'” Kourtney judged. “You're putting the changing table right under the air conditioning?” Judgy much?
5 Kim's Room At Her Mom's House
With a home as massive as Kris' mansion is, you can only imagine that each of her children has their own room at her house (well duh - of course, they do).
While Kim's style has evolved over time and matured, her room at her mom's house still has a small, subtle hint of that young girl.
The colors are pretty neutral in gray and a grayish-purple, but the princess dog portrait about the bed is straight up perfect and oh-so-young Kim. Is it OCD'ish? In a way, if you look at the colors. But we still love it.
4 A Perfectly Kylie Closet
So she doesn't have a thing for color-coding all her outfits in her personal closet, but does that really matter? Kylie's clothes closet is extremely organized as she gave her viewers and fans a preview of it when she took a camera crew on a tour of her place. While it's not like her sisters' closet spaces, it is definitely her own. We can imagine Khloe just going absolutely bonkers in here, attempting to straighten it up in her own bizarre way, which is probably why Kylie's closet is the most refreshing out of all of the Kardashian/Jenners.
3 We Should Probably Discuss Kendall's (Old) Closet While We're At It
Even back when they were kids, the girls showed off some pretty apparent OCD vibes. Absent from most of this list has been Kendall who ISN'T as organized as her siblings (and more private in a sense when it comes to her surroundings and personal life) so let's take a look at her closet when she was younger.
While the clothes hanging up don't scream OCD, take a gander at those folded items stacked neatly as if Kendall was living in a Gap.
Who even has time to do that? Let alone LOOK and unfold shirts in order to find a particular one? Jeez.
2 We All Wish We Had A Purse Closet Like Kylie
Now, is it exactly as obsessive-compulsive as big sis Khloe's closet? Not exactly, but she does two separate closets - one for her clothes and her shoes, and one for her purses. “This is pretty much where I keep all my purses,” she shared on YouTube. “I made a little room in my house and I did this all custom, so they all could have a little home and be lit up really pretty.” Okay, so it's definitely not like sis Khloe's OCD since Kylie is more concerned about the aesthetics of the closet.
1 It's Easy To See Where Caitlyn Gets Her Taste From
Even though Caitlyn Jenner has tried to distance herself from her former wife Kris as much as possible, there are things that still peak through when it comes to Caitlyn's lifestyle - especially her decorating skills and her OCD habits. Just take a look at her former Malibu house.
The interior, while vastly different from Kris', still has an air about it that reminds us of Caitlyn's ex.
It's cool and clean yet extremely glamorous in an old Hollywood sort of way, which reminds us a bit of Kris.
And yes, it's obsessively organized.
