Downsizing my Wardrobe: What made the cut

It's been about 2 months since I started my first attempt at a capsule wardrobe. It's definitely still a work in progress - I don't have a defined number, nor a defined style. One of the hallmarks of creating a capsule wardrobe, though, is to work with what you've got.

As you saw in my first two posts, I dramatically trimmed down what I had. The only thing I've added to my collection was a pair of high quality leggings from Hue.



So here is what I ended up with when all was said and done:




Tops
3 camisoles
4 "work" tank tops
4 weekend tank tops
4 long sleeve
2  3/4 length sleeve
4 button-downs
9 sweaters/cardigans
6 sweatshirts/hoodies
2 "work" tees
2 fleeces
1 puffy vest
1 cotton blazer
23 tee-shirts

Bottoms
4 skirts
4 jeans
2 yoga pants
1 hiking pants
3 gym/lounge shorts
2 layering leggings
1 sweatpants

Other items
5 dresses
3 scarves
1 wool coat
1 rain jacket
1 winter coat
Too many shoes
Too many socks
Too many PJs








What made the cut in your wardrobe?

  1. I've been trying to pare down my wardrobe too - it's much easier to find something to wear each day. Have a wonderful Christmas Christa :)
