The Office: Capsule Wardrobe


Capsule Wardrobe Office Edition is almost complete! I need to take a picture and post the jeans I decide on (haven't decided on my light wash or dark wash!!) and some khaki or mustard colored pants that I am still in the market for. 

 BOTTOMS:


SWEATERS: 






 LONG SLEEVE BLOUSES:



YES this and the other white button down shirt are basically the same, which is capsule taboo, BUT this is t shirt material cotton and does not have cuffs and is sooooo comfy. Perfect way to have a dressy look in a casual feel. This one pairs well with the pencil skirt and both slacks with flats or booties.  The shirt above is for layering with sweaters or to wear with jeans and to elevate the look a bit more than this t shirt material one. 


 SHORT SLEEVE SHIRTS:



 DRESSES:


To come- outfit combo ideas, shoes, and I'm in the market for one more short sleeve blouse in a colorful pattern or pretty blue or blush color. I also have a navy and burgundy shirt that is in the wash that I was unable to photograph today! This is really a year round edition because the weather fluctuates in California so much, sometimes I want to wear a t-shirt in the middle of winter (aka last Tuesday). If I had not had my sweaters available yesterday though, I would have froze to death in the office!

Chronicling the following: Unicorn Space, 75 Holistic, and being a new mom to two

 I feel like it's easy to create goals, but a lot harder to stick to them! You get caught up in the daily grind or something *happens* and you never get back into it (whatever IT may be).  I had a baby almost 3 months ago and I also have a 3 year old, so life is a little hectic and crazy. I also lost my dad about a year and a half ago and that was a huge mental load in many ways. Even though my baby is still young, I want to really start reaching the goals that I set for myself in order to 1. set a good example for my family, 2. be the best mama I can be (and I can only do that if I am participating in some self-care and making time for myself) and 3. well I mean who doesn't like accomplishing things? 4. be set up for success once life gets "easier"  To start, I am going to add journaling to my unicorn space goals. I want to do more than that, but I think it's a good way to get my creative juice flowing and I can figure out what I would like to do next. Ideas incl...

I think I might blog about it

I am feeling bloggy today! I'm about ready to fire up the instagram (and dare I say start up my tiktok?) again and in about a month I'll be making the switch to my fall/winter capsule wardrobe. But here's the thing...I'm having SO much fun in my current spring/summer one! I'm pretty sure I am going to combine them for a somewhat larger than average, but longer lasting, capsule. A lot of people switch theirs every season. I tend to switch it up every 6 months. Now it may be more of a "this is my wardrobe forever and everytime I buy something new I get rid of something with holes or stains" wardrobe.  Anyway- My incredibly loose formula for building a capsule is as follows:  Figure out my color scheme! I did a brown base for my last fall/winter and navy base for my spring/summer. I think that this time around I will do a navy base for my fall/winter, but keep in some of the brown as a secondary color. I also always have a cool off-white as my second base col...

Britton Bigfoot Basecamp

 FUN NEWS!  We bought a pop up camper!  And we named her the Britton Bigfoot Basecamp. Eliza is currently obsessed with Bigfoot so it felt right. We did ask ChatGPT for some name suggestions, but Alex and I came up with this on our own! I told ChatGPT that we are a family of 4 with two young girls looking for a name for our new pop up camper. We love music and the outdoors, and our 3 year old loves Bigfoot! Some of my fave Chat suggestions were Pop goes the Brittons, Popped and Rocked, In Tune and In Tents, Off Key and Off Road, but Alex wasn't thrilled with them. Luckily, some of the Chat's suggestions inspired us to where we ended up!  We are going to chronicle our renovation of the pop up, which is luckily in amazing condition. We also want to try not to spend an exorbitant amount of money, so I think I'll also share what we are spending along the way.  First up is cleaning! I have spent about $40 on a cleaner that gets rid of mildew, a mop for cleaning the c...
