the armoire is extremely arbitrary...

They've already got items that you cant put more than one of on your retainers

but only if they are not obtainable with dungeon drops, npc and market boards

I can use the armoire for anything I want in my house.

It's just silly and doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

Are these decisions made with a coin?

The newest items are never immediately storable. this happened in XI as well.

I still don't get why they can't flag stuff for being able to be stored in the armoire prior to the patch. Maybe it's some weird thing where they want people to use the event gear through the duration of the event and put it away only after it's done?

I personally don't get too involved with the events. I do them to experience them and get whatever achievements are associated with them and then I'm done with it. I don't need 10 spots of my inventory occupied for the next two months.

I have started to dread the events because I just do not have room for the vanity items. I want them all... but with the armoire issues... no where to put them.

My question is why doesn't SE just make all event items UNIQUE/UNTRADEABLE and thus armoire acceptable? It would solve everyone's space issues. I'm glad they continue to put forth all this nifty gear and in multiple colors but I don't see a point when we're forced to pick and choose specific ones because the sheer number of them will soon be overwhelming to our storages. They don't need to be tradeable; I bought the game when I did, I was there to experience Heavensturn, why should someone that picks up the game next June have the ability to pick up 7 of the 12 helmets available? The game will be around for years and being able to show off these unique items unobtainable no other way than Heavensturn 2013 (as an example) would mean something 5 years from now. A testament to one's commitment for sticking with the game all that time.

Just my 2 cents. Cheers.

7 helmets? Only the 3 usagi kabutos are tradeable, because they were crafted in 1.0. Ok, 2 were crafted. The red one was used as a basic mat for the other 2.

old recipes:
Black Usagi Kabuto (Armorcraft, Rank 11-20) : Usagi Kabuto, Kabuto Mask, Blue Odoshi Cord, Black Urushi × 2
Silver Usagi Kabuto (Goldsmithing, Rank 11-20) : Usagi Kabuto, Kabuto Mask, Black Odoshi Cord, Silver Leaf × 2

You got the event mats with ringing a bell

The reason why SE don't just change them to U/U would be because some people would have already 2 or more from the same usagi kabuto in their inventory/retainer since 1.0.

And this needs to change. Squeenix needs to implement content fully functional with their game systems.

That doesn't actually say anything about implementing vanity holiday items as already store-able in the armoire instead of waiting months down the line to flag them as such.

From the 2.1 patch note:

We are aware of the armoire's limited capacity, and plan to introduce new methods of expanding storage space on an ongoing basis.

And this is what people have issue with. No reason not to have them storable in the same patch the items are released.
