Guess who’s back…back again…
She’s baaaaaaack!!
Hi, babes! I truly cannot believe I haven’t written a blog post in over a year, which means I also haven’t created a capsule wardrobe in over a year.
If I’m being honest, I’m not quite sure why I strayed away from creating capsule wardrobes. But, here’s what I’ve discovered after focusing more on “fast fashion” and less on capsule-like wardrobes:
- I departed slightly from my personal style
- my creativity for styling an outfit or a specific piece decreased
- I wasn’t getting as much ear out of my clothing
- my focus here became more about selling items and less about imparting styling wisdom
- I spent more money on clothes than I did when I created capsules
Let’s Get To The Good Part…
So, after my short departure from capsule wardrobes, I am so excited to launch this October Capsule Wardrobe. October in Texas is such an interesting month weather-wise. We can just as easily have days in the 90 degree heat as we can in 40 degrees. It’s a super versatile month, which means an October capsule in Texas needs to be versatile. So, you’ll find a range or bottoms and a range of tops from sleeveless to a jacket.
When you’re creating a capsule wardrobe, it’s important to remember that the pieces in a capsule are meant to be mixed and matched and styled multiple ways. Essentially, this is the base of your wardrobe. From this capsule, this base, you can add in occasion pieces or fun accessories – a fun heel or a statement bag. It’s super easy to change a look simply by changing up your accessories.
In this capsule, you’ll find some pieces that are trendy, but are bound to be around for the season:
- leopard jeans
- trouser jeans
- barrel jeans
- cropped trench coat
- sweater vest
Which piece are you most excited to see styled? I think the pieces I’m the most excited for are the leopard jeans and the cropped trench coat.
To see how I style these pieces throughout the month, be sure to follow me on Instagram!
