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!

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...

Time for my yearly check-in!

 Ok so- (have you ever seen that video about the end of the world from ebaum's world? well this was said like that guy....)  Alright the first thing is first - I have an 18 month old daughter and am hoping to get pregnant again in the (near?) future. This means that I am living in that postpartum mama bod world and am not mentally ready to try and get slimmer yet. Maybe I never will! I have a somewhat apple/rectangle shape and lots of belly!! I am also petite in height. This makes it SO hard to find clothes that fit AND look good on me! I have searched high and low for jeans that fit and also don't give me a muffin top or fall down my narrow hips. Anyway, I have made a few purchases for some clothes that will be more flattering for my figure- finger's crossed. This means peplum tops, slacks, high waisted leggings/skinny jeans when they fit. I also have NO MONEY! So, some of my purchases have had to be through amazon and old navy in order to be able to afford clothing for my...
