This is my spring capsule wardrobe! I have too much. But the weather
is all over the place, and I feel like I need a lot of choices to figure
out what I'm going to wear in my "new normal" life with 4 kiddos in the
spring and summer time.
In a month or so, all the
jackets and long sleeves will be totally obsolete. I plan for this
capsule to get me through March, April, and May, and most of this will
also be for June, July, and August as well. I will just have to freshen
things up a bit.
Hilariously, I have come up with some theme words for my spring capsule. These words came to me...and they all start with C.
Comfortable - because I want to be comfortable, always
Colorful- because after the blacks and grays of winter clothes, it is refreshing to have color
Casual- because this fits my lifestyle
College- because my daily uniform is basically what I wore in college - colored tee, bootcut Citizens of Humanity jeans (from thredUP), and Chacos
Camp Counselor- because this wardrobe somehow feels very campy and 90's (I went to camp all through the 90's)
Also, I have to tell you again...I love thredUP, and much of this wardrobe pictured below is from thredUP. Thank you to all of you that purchased clothes through my link! You can still do that and get $10 off your order and I will get a $10 credit, too. A win, win.
This jacket is my most recent favorite find from thredUP....It's J.Crew, perfect condition. I paid $35. It would have cost $135 in the store.

I love thredUP
i love those pink pants and that boho sleeveless top! i need help with making a capsule wardrobe. weight gain has limited my own choices. i'm afraid i'm going to have to buy some new things just to get by until i lose some weight. does thread up allow you to do returns, or do you just send it back as your own, and they credit you that way? i still haven't tried it but i have the bag you send in. i'm anxious to try it!
ReplyDeleteThey will give you "store credit" or you can get a refund with a transaction fee.
DeleteI understand about weight fluctuations. It's so frustrating.
I'm so drawn to this wardrobe capsule idea. Do you pack-up each season's wardrobe in it's own container or do you leave everything hanging year round? Also, Loft vintage tees are my absolute favorite. I never tire of them.
ReplyDeleteI pack everything away but the season I'm currently wearing. I store everything in 2 small boxes. I've really decluttered to just the stuff I wear.
DeleteWill you post your shoes too? I'm currently working on my first capsule- excited!
ReplyDeleteYes - I will work on a shoe picture!
