What is a 'Capsule Wardrobe'?
A capsule wardrobe is a selection of versatile items of clothing which you love that can be styled with each other. A capsule wardrobe normally consists of 37 items of clothing. This technique allows you to have a few selected items which you love and not to have a cluttered wardrobe!
Benefits of a Capsule Wardrobe:
- You dedicate more time and money to the things in life that really matter (not clothes).
- You can make some money or donate to charity from the clothes you do not need.
- It allows you to identify your true style
How to decide what to keep and what to chuck:
- A good technique which I have seen is to turn all of your hangers forward in your wardrobe. Then every time you wear an item of clothing, turn the hanger around. Then after some time, you will see the items of clothing that you actually wear and the ones which you are clearly not into anymore!
- Chuck anything that doesn't fit and doesn't make you feel good about yourself!
- Get rid of the clothes with holes, fading or shrunk in the wash... let go.
- Worn out shoes, they may be your favourite, but it's time for them to disappear.
- Monochrome colours are easy to match with one another!
Some great staple pieces:
- Black/blue denim jeans
- White T shirt
- A skirt that makes you feel good and comfortable
- Trainers that you love - converse or vans are a good choice
- A denim jacket
- A smart blazer (for special occasions)
- Ballet shoes
- Plaid shirt
- A pretty dress
- Cardigan
- Sweater/jumper
Aiming to have a capsule wardrobe is an excellent money saving and room saving technique! It will make you feel more a peace as your room will be much more clear thus so will your mind.
