hello ladies! What’s up?
It’s Sunday night, I work the night shift tonight and I had a brand-new-old idea: The winter capsule wardrobe (ground breaking, I know!).
Those following me from the start already know I have tried and failed miserably the capsule wardrobe concept before. This time around though I think it might actually work for me for several reasons. First of all, I work shifts now and also attend the University so I don’t have as much time free as I used too.Also I wear uniform at work and I don’t have to worry about my day-to-day work outfit anymore.
I have noticed that lately I tend to wear pretty much the same things on my free time, a pair of jeans and a sweater or sweatshirt when I’m at home and usually add a blazer or a cardigan when going out. So obviously it is much easier for me to adapt this time with the hole capsule wardrobe idea as I don’t have to worry about my work outfits anymore.This is actually sooo much better as I get to keep more items for my wardrobe (my uniforms won’t be included on my list so 41 items can stay for my winter wardrobe!!).
what I’m Keeping:
Bottoms
1)a pair of boyfriend jeans from Zara
2) two pairs of jeans (one skinny one slim fit) from AEO
3) a pair of faux leather leggings from Tezenis
4) a pair of suede black leggings from Zara
5) a pair of grey plaid leggings from Zara
6) a pair blue high-waisted long trousers
7) a faux leather Zara skirt
Full Body
8) a black Zara overall
9) A long Zara plaid shirtdress
10+11) Two Zara black dresses
Tops
12) 3 Blazers (one Black Zara blazer and two colored Stradivarius blazers)
13) 4 sweatshirts ( for everyday casual looks)
14) 5 knitted sweaters ( for either casual looks or more prept look with a nice shirt under it)
15) 3 shirts (one White from Zara,one denim blue and one light pink from Stradivarius)
16) 3 fancy blouses (all -surprise surprise- from Zara)
Outwear
17) a cashmere camel coat ( actually handmade and vintage from my grandma)
18) a long puffer Zara coat
19) a white Zara coat
20) one grey Forever21 long coat
21) 3 cardigans
Shoes
22) One pair of over the knee Piccadilly boots
23)one pair of black Piccadilly heels
24)one pair of belted black Stradivarius booties
25) one pair of leopard printed booties ( which are actually the only thing I need to buy)
When it comes to accessories I’m pretty much sticking to the same items I wear anyway, which are two watches (one classic silver Daniel Wellington and one ASOS rose gold watch),3 knitted scarves, my earrings and matching rings. During winter I tend to avoid a lot of jewelry and stick to more simple items anyway.
wish me luck ladies! I will begin my Capsule Wardrobe tomorrow and hopefully stick to it until end of April!! I will be uploading outfit images soon!!
