Spring Capsule Closet

Thursday, June 22, 2017

I know I'm a little late on posting this, because it's officially summer, however, I still wanted to share some of the outfits that I wore from my Spring Capsule Closet. 

At the beginning of each season I try to start with approximately 30 pieces, though through process of elimination and purchasing a few new items, I usually end up with a totally different wardrobe by the end. I am constantly evaluating my clothes so that it reflects who I want to be and how I want that represented in my clothing. Obviously becoming a mother has had a drastic affect on the way I dress, since the rules of dressing are totally different than when I worked a 9-5 job.

Here's some of my Spring 2017 Looks.
Note: Some pieces I have already gotten rid of since taking these photos since I realized I didn't like how they fit or just weren't that flattering on me anymore. (hello 30 year old post-baby body)


New purchase of the season: Boyfriend jeans 


High-waisted Dark wash jeans


Light wash Super-skinny jeans (seen here)


Relaxed fit dark wash jeans

Striped ankle jeans


Black dress pant

"New" thrifted purchase for the season: Jersey patterned dress (seen here)


After trying out different version of the "capsule closet", I have found what works for me.
Here's the breakdown.

Building a Capsule Wardrobe

Thursday, January 29, 2015



I've come across several bloggers talking about a capsule wardrobe over the past year, and it's caught my interest. Since moving in the summer, I have been in the habit of sorting through my clothes every few months to see what I don't need. The idea of wearing 30-37 pieces per season definitely sounds like something I could want to do.

I've been reading the book Organized Simplicity by Tsh Oxenreider, and it's been putting some things in perspective that I have been challenged by this year so far.

While trying to save, and serve, and keep the house clean, stuff seems to consume my time more than anything else. Think about how much time would be saved tidying the house if you had less stuff! 

I've decided to start with my closet, and pair down what I need for each season. Getting rid of those unworn items, and giving them to someone that I know will benefit from them more than me, has been a gratifying feeling. I want to make this year about others, and less about myself. Living with less stuff will hopefully open the doors to new opportunities, more time, and a clear mind. 


What are you doing this year to make a change?
