Who needs a pantry when you’ve got Prada? In a move straight out of Carrie Bradshaw’s playbook, Big Apple influencer Kate Bartlett swapped spatulas for stilettos — and transformed her cooking quarters into a high-fashion haven. “I have been told I demonstrate the greatest use of free will, because I use my kitchen as my closet,” Bartlett kicked off a recent TikTok video , while giving her 1.5 million followers a tour of the haute couture hidden inside her cabinets.
Bartlett opens cabinet doors to reveal 20 pairs of high-end heels — including $1,750 sequined Jimmy Choo stilettos and Roger Vivier slingbacks worth $1,125. “Cause I have a lot of cabinet space, I definitely don’t need to use all of these for food. I also do not cook .
.. I just don’t know why you would invent a kitchen with cabinets that perfectly fit a pair of high heels and not use them for that,” Bartlett explained in the two-minute-long video, which has amassed over 400,000 views.
“Having a pantry in a New York apartment is pretty rare, and I’ve never had one before, so I obviously decided to turn this into my accessory closet,” Bartlett continued. She then opened a full-size door in the kitchen to reveal five shelves full of wardrobe enhancers. More than two dozen pairs of sunglasses adorn a hanging display on the inside of the door, while two and a half of the pantry’s shelves are dedicated to Bartlett’s hefty handbag collection, which includes luxury Louis Vuitton and Christian .
