Capsule Wardrobe
So last week I was browsing fashion blogs looking for something new to read. During that time I was directed to Un-fancy. There I learned about capsule wardrobes. Click the link to learn more.
But basically. In an effort to simplify my life I'm going to try this for a season. So what did I do? I went through all of my clothes. I got rid of everything that was too big (YAY losing 20 lbs) and everything that I know I haven't worn in the past year. I also got rid of 10 pairs of shoes. I think that may have hurt more than the clothes.
I then separated my clothing into seasons.
When I had done that I went through my summer pile and picked out 37 peices to wear for the next 3.5 months (through the end of August). And on one hand I know that
sounds like ALOT,especially because that does not include any work clothes,pjs, or work out clothes. But really it's not -->
So what did I end up with?
1 maxi dress
1 tea length dress
1 heavy sweater
2 light sweaters
1 shawl wrap
1 Caps jersey
1 crop top
4 dress T-shirts
4 graphic Ts
3 dress tank
3 graphic tank
2 racer back
3 plain tank
1 tunic length tank
1 tea length skirt
1 maxi skirt
1 pair gauchos
1 pair jean shorts
1 pair bright skinnies
2 pairs blue jeans
2 pairs skinny jeans
So hopefully this is more than enough to get me through the summer. I do have a bachelorette party to attend towards the end of August, so I might shop a little for that. I mean we are going to Miami!!! But overall I'm looking forward to this going forward. So I plan to take pictures each weekend to see how often I actually repeat what I wear. I might check in with you all occasionally on this, otherwise I'll see what happens when we get to September.
Otherwise I'll leave you with my first oufit!
