Project 333 October Capsule Wardrobe: Week 2 of 4

This past week I added 17 items to my Fall capsule wardrobe for a working total of 38. If I don't count jewelry I'm at 31 items.

I finally decided to let go of the lovely shoes I wore to our son's wedding 2 1/2 years ago. I've worn them a few times since, but my feet hurt when I put them on now. This is a good way to weed out items you just keep holding on to because you like them but they just don't work for some reason.

On Thursday I added a sand top, black pants, black belt and two necklaces for this outfit. The black loafers were already in the capsule.


Then for going out to dinner Friday night at a neighborhood Thai restaurant I added a gray ruffle top, black slim jeans, red 3/4 sleeve cardigan, a silver/black pendant necklace and a black cross-body purse. It's hard to get good pictures by myself LOL.


 

Feeling a bit Boho on Saturday I added this top, turquoise bracelet & necklace, and a navy belt to the medium wash jeans and navy loafers already in my capsule.


 

I also added a casual dark gray top, berry cardigan, wine scarf, walking shoes and a pair of boot cut medium wash jeans. I'm still not sure about keeping the tangerine jeans so I'll see if I reach for them at all over the next few weeks.

    1. Sure. The 3 tops shown are all from a local consignment store. The cardigan was from a Ross or Marshalls. My jeans are all from Kohls although they aren't carrying the same brand in petites anymore. I'm a low cost clothes shopper for the most part as I know the markup is crazy in department stores. The exception are when I can't find something to fit then I go up the cost ladder.

    2. Also the jewelry is a combination of antique items from my Mom, Etsy and ebay finds.

Oh Pup, that is not your Christmas stocking and three hard questions

Last year Coco the dog ignored the minimal Christmas decorations and the wrapped presents we put on the hearth. This year? Well there is now...
