Joan Rivers' Closet Is Filled With Vintage Jackets, Ziploc Bags & Payless Shoes (VIDEO)

We may not be a fan of all her decisions, but Joan Rivers has won us over with her awesome New York closet.

We've seen her tiny closet space before, when she described her love of Valentino and distate for denim. This time around, in a video for Time Out New York, the comedian shows off her many baubles, bags, shoes and sparkly cardigans, which she likes to trim with fur.

But what really made us smile is Joan's love of a good bargain. "It ain't about price, it's about the look," she intones, showing off a bag she designed for QVC.

And while Joan's got priceless vintage gear -- "These are bags from the Year 1. I think I carried this one when I was dating Moses" -- she reserves her true love for a pair of Payless shoes.

"They are so damn comfortable!" she asserts. A woman after our own heart.

I prefer wrinkles to plastic surgery. Many English actresses are just beautiful as older ladies - Maggie Smith is an example. She never had plastic surgery. Wrinkles are interesting.

Jeebus. She's looking like that Las Vegas Casino owner's wife, the cat lady.

Should hang her pathetic self in the same closet. By the neck. What a poor excuse of a woman.

I love Joan Rivers. I've been following her shows and success for years. Joan was the best interviewer substitute for Johnny Carson----bar none. She is an Icon, and the more I see her, the better I like her. You go girl ! ! !

Nice to hear a kind word among many cruel comments.

People don't realize Joan is chic in her private life and raunchy/flashy in her showbiz persona. Like her or hate her, she knows how to dress. I applaud her theory of dressing with accessories. Just like the Duchess of Windsor, who had severely tailored clothes but loaded up on the fabulous jewels. You have to be svelte to carry it off, and Joan is no flabbo. Good for her! I adore that loopy scarf...she's right that fashion should be fun!

Joan Rivers is an ICON. She is very funny. She is not afraid to poke fun at herself. And she says what most people won't say. She says it like it really is. She can do whatever she wants to with her body. She earned the money to pay for it. If it makes her feel good about herself then more power to her. My husbands grandmother is 86 and hates to look at herself in the mirror. I believe many senior woman would get a little nip/tuck if they could afford it.

Joan didn't have a nip & tuck, she had a stretch & seal.

Skeletons keep Joan Rivers in their closets!
If Joan Rivers goes into her closet, how can you tell her from the rest of the bags?
...I've got a million of them!!!

I stumbled onto Joan Rivers' reality show the other day on an off-beat cable channel. She has a filthy mouth and so does her daughter. These two have no class and Rivers seems to think she has to say the F word because she thinks it makes her cool.

It's called, "HORDING". You can always tell when someone has lived through the Great Depression!
