I am definitely going to keep these capsule wardrobe ideas in mind as I continue sewing.<br /><br />Brigid<br />the Middle Sister and SingerThe Boyer Sistershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08954031354687928264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4676620122743768137.post-83894505029899653712015-05-15T17:48:50.601-04:002015-05-15T17:48:50.601-04:00I completely agree with this post.

I do mix and match these colors like you pointed out and add accessories to make my outfits look different. And I tend to change my hairstyle all the time too. Some times I do feel like I should have more clothes in my closet. When I do buy my clothes to I always have in mind will this go with every thing I own. Thank you for the post it is very helpful, sometime I feel bad wearing the same stuff all the time even though I make my outfits look totally different.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4676620122743768137.post-166403955074565892015-05-15T13:16:05.360-04:002015-05-15T13:16:05.360-04:00Absolutely stellar post and topic to raise. My own...Absolutely stellar post and topic to raise. My own (literal) closet is very, very small by modern standards, but even then, I fully admit my wardrobe is larger than those of most in the decades that it filled with. I find that constantly staying on top of weeding out pieces that don't work is a must, as is building it around certain core pieces, many of which are akin to the excellent suggestions you've shared here. I'd love to have a genuinely big closet one day for ease of storage and access, but wouldn't feel like I had to cram every know and cranny full (quite the opposite, that's how having a tiny closet feels and I'd love to experience the opposite!).<br /><br />Thank you for this great post, dear lady!<br /><br />♥ JessicaWitchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4676620122743768137.post-88199979456632782942015-05-14T13:07:27.369-04:002015-05-14T13:07:27.369-04:00'Walk in closet'.

On the other hand... all the prints! All the colors! All the different silhouettes and hemlines and shapes! I just don't ever see myself succeeding at having a capsule wardrobe, so matter how full my closet becomes.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06827840216337511678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4676620122743768137.post-62237877694633740012015-05-13T10:41:04.259-04:002015-05-13T10:41:04.259-04:00Wow, the versatility astounds me.

I am sewing my clothes so this will really help me focus on what I need to do first in order to get my wardrobe built quickly!
