Graphic T-Shirt, Shorts, Sandals, Watch, Purse: Old Kate Spade Saturday. Similar.
If you think
that I am fake laughing in the picture above… you are correct. I’m not super comfortable with the whole
picture taking/posing part of blogging so I guess you’ll just have to deal with
fake laughing or contemplative looking to the side pictures. I give you
permission to make fun of me. You’re
welcome.
I recently
traveled with the shorts in this picture and I realized how badly they
wrinkle. I can really only get one wear
out of them before they are a wrinkled mess.
And this is where doing the capsule wardrobe is changing my approach to
my wardrobe. In the past, I would have
gone out and just purchased a few more shorts like this in the pursuit of
trying to find the “perfect” jogger short.
Now, I’m choosing to accept the fact that they are not perfect and to be
content with what I currently have. Lesson learned: next time, I’ll pay attention to how
material wears when I build my capsule. Having
an intentional hiatus from shopping helps eliminate my tendency to get rid of a
bunch of clothing and then fill my closet with just as much (if not more) new
clothing. I’m creating a new normal of
less and that’s a beautiful thing. Do
you have any clothing items that you regret adding to your capsules?
Until next
time,
Yes, posing isn't my favorite part of blogging either ! I just started my capsule last month so I know I'll regret some items. Since my family doesn't own a lot of white clothing items, it takes a while to do the white laundry...which gives me a hard time wearing them as much as I want to, because I also tend to spill on my shirts.. But i think white clothes are so sophisticated ! So I don't know yet what I'll do next time. I think a capsule is made to improve the next one, as you said, we learn from our current capsule, and don't run to the store to buy more clothes ! ��
ReplyDeleteI totally know what you mean about white clothing! I love them, but with a baby they are really hard to own. In fact, I've had to wash my white shorts every single time I've worn them because I spill all over them. But you're right... it is all about moving onward an upward right?!
