Capsule Wardrobe: Striped Dress + What I Learned

 I learned many things while making this capsule wardrobe and wanted to highlight a few of the main things I learned.

1- You can make so many outfits with a few key items. I really didn't realize how many outfits I could make with my clothes. The 12 pieces aren't the only clothes in my closet, so I could probably wear a different outfit every day of the year!

2- Feeling good about yourself. It's more important to feel good about yourself in your style, than to always be wearing the current trend. It's hard not to get caught up in trends, but they don't always look good on all body types. 

3- Capsule wardrobes simplify your life! It takes the guesswork out of getting dressed in the morning and leaves you with more time to do other things, like maybe trying a new hairstyle or applying more makeup. :)

4- Adding in items. Don't get discouraged if you start getting tired of your wardrobe. You can always swap out different shirts, skirts, dresses, or jeans. Always remember to accessorize! That keeps outfits new and exciting!

I would love to see your capsule wardrobes! Send me a link by email or in the comments below!
