I'm planning on having a smart casual capsule wardrobe, the goal is to wash the wardrobe once a week, and be able to travel with it easily, I need some suggestions, I have a few items already

1 turtleneck sweater, black

1 turtleneck sweater, white

1 shawl collar cardigan, gray

1 knitted long sleeve polo, black

1 merino wool undershirt

1 pair chinos, beige

1 pair chinos, gray

1 navy blazer

7 pairs darn tough socks

7 pairs 32 degrees briefs

Allbirds Tree Pipers (I prefer barefoot shoes so idk what to pick)

1 down jacket, gray

1 merino wool mesh base layer top

1 merino wool mesh base layer bottom

Is this good? I've never done this before. Any suggestions?

EDIT: Added a few items

Budget is around 300 dollars.

I’m trying to redo my wardrobe. Trying to find places to shop that have old money style clothing, but I’m having a hard time.

Does anyone know of any places that sell that style? I’m hoping for clothes that will last. I don’t mind spending a bit more if the it’s good quality.

As the title states - I'm looking to rehaul (almost entirely) my wardrobe.

I had an open abdominal with a vertical incision, so I'm no longer able to wear pants for at least 6 months to a year. Every zipper or seam line that touches my incision hurts. It's going to be sensitive for quite some time while it heals. I also lost about 22lbs of weight when the hysterectomy was done. Almost none of my clothes fit me from the past couple of years. Everything that does fit is from 2017 or before.

For background and measurements purposes - I'm 30 years old, 5'3 and about 125lbs. I've been analyzed as a Dark (Deep) Winter, and have a hourglass shape.

For my new wardrobe, I'm looking to create a capsules wardrobe with a lot of colour. I don't have a set budget, but I also don't need to buy everything at once. I am looking to buy more 80-100% wool, cashmere, silk, cotton, linen types of clothing. I want items that last. I am desperately on the hunt for a leather jacket. I need everything from basic pieces to carefully selected statement pieces. This includes shoes, purses, jewelry.. etc.

If you were to rehaul your wardrobe, what pieces would you recommend? If any stylists are here, please send me a private message!

I'm trying to set up a capsule with black, tan, and charcoal gray as the neutrals. I need a black belt that I can wear with jeans, pants, and / or over a flowy knit dress. I'd like something that doesn't stick out and create a bulge if my shirt is untucked.

No metal so it can go thru security and vegan would be a plus but not essential. Also I could go for 2 belts, one for the dress and one for pants, but 1 belt that does both would be amazing.

I've had the same 1 black leather belt for over 20 years and it looks like crap. It honestly wasn't very good quality to begin with, lol.

Where should I look for something of mid to good quality with those features?

Hey everyone does anyone else wear the same thing everyday? Summer and fall was awesome because I wore tennis skirt + sleeveless shirt every day, but I’m struggling with winter clothes.

I’m a mom to an amazing toddler and. I’m trying to figure out what’s the best uniform for the winter. We spend our days in museums, play groups, skiing, nature walks, indoor gyms, and visiting near by attractions both inside and outside.

I want something cute but functional and something that can easily breastfeed in is a huge plus.

So first I should start by saying I’m a minimalist and own very limited number of clothes. Recently my best friend, Godmother, and matron of honor in my wedding, who I see four times a week or more (we are in the same circles and go to church together) has been asking me where I buy my clothes from and buying the exact same items. I do not like lying so whenever she asks where I bought something I feel obligated to tell her. One time I joked that I wasn’t going to tell her cause I didn’t want her to steal my outfit and then it slipped later in the conversation and she got all excited. I joked that identity theft is a crime and she just laughed and proceeded to ask me later that night how much I paid for shipping on the website. I get imitation is a form of flattery but we literally go to all the same places and I want to have some individuality. I feel like if she couldn’t get my hints that she won’t respond well if I’m more direct. Am I being petty?

Congratulations and condolences! Your capsule wardrobe enthusiast distant relative has passed away and left you a nice chunk of change to update your wardrobe on the condition that whatever you buy will remain in your annual rotation for the next 5 years. It doesn't have to be part of every seasonal rotation, but you can't remove it from the capsule as a whole or swap it out for something trendy.

So, what are you buying with your unexpected windfall?

I've been finding myself at a crossroads. I'm 35 and trying to figure out want to do with pants. I've never been a huge skinny fit person, but I worry that even my tapered fits are out of style. The last thing I want to do is not move forward with trends and seem like the out of touch 80s moms who won't let go of the big hair, but I also don't think I look good in less fitted pants (straight leg never worked with my proportions when I was a teen/it was in style).

Any links/suggestions for something that will keep me on trend now but not look like I'm an out of touch adult trying to fit in with Gen-Z? I'm 5'5, 175/180, usually go for a more minimalist/androgynous look, and will go between the women's and men's section. My only real requirement is I need real pockets, and women's pants just don't always do that.

Hi capsulers and capsulettes, last night at the bar after playing volleyball the weekly question we voted on and chatted about was “how many pairs of shoes is too many” which of course resulted in us talking about our shoe collections and why we have what we have. What are folks here’s shoe strategy?

I realized I have way more shoes than I thought (many different sports which I don’t think count and also some one-offs that I’ve kept because why not?) But even the ones I wear are probably overkill. I also do both black and brown (cognac) so I have the following in both colors: tall boots, ankle boots, loafers, heeled ankle boots, and flat sandals. I also have black and neutral point toe flats. I have a pair of white leather vela sneakers and another of orange canvas ones. I have a more dressed up office environment so no sneakers allowed.

I've had this gorgeous pair of black riding boots sitting in my closet, gathering dust for years now because I can't figure out how to style them. Now that I'm paring things down and considering my new additions carefully, I need to decide if I'm going to keep or sell.

They're GORGEOUS boots and super well made so it'd be a shame to send them to their potential doom in a landfill if no one bought them from me/a charity without at least attempting to incorporate them into my wardrobe first. So!

I'm a millennial still stubbornly clinging to my high-waisted skinny jeans, and my style is a little grown up office goth-y (so no Han Solo Season Girlie looks please!), so what are some pieces I can style them with that might fit my vibe?

ETA: I can't upload a picture no matter what I do, so here's the link to the boots.

Has anyone ordered their puffer jackets? Have they hold well?

I am moving from a mostly black wardrobe to a Navy wardrobe I would love to see some of the outfits and items that are your staples! also would love to see some of the color combos that go with navy.

I’ve been trying to decide what to buy my son for his winter capsule. I took a whole bunch of screenshots online and uploaded them to this app the automatically cuts out the clothing items and allows you to mix and match them! I can’t wait to do it to my own wardrobe and make sure that new purchases go with my current closet!!! Such a cool application of AI!

Specific to my situation, I'm looking to refresh my wardrobe with a few sweaters. I found a knit mockneck at Gap that I really like for a decent price. And I can't decide between the "deep dusty mauve" or brown version. My capsule contains a lot of earthy tones with some purples. The brown would probably work more but I already own a brown hoodie.

Unfortunately the fabric content contains a bit of acrylic, so I'm hesitant to keep both. Plus I don't think I need 2 of the same sweater, especially since I'm a homebody haha

Should I just keep both???

ETA: the colour is "deep dusty mauve". Not lilac like I previously said.

How do you choose items that don’t shrink in the wash?

I’m looking for fashion influencers to follow on Instagram. I follow lifewithjazz but she does alot of professional office wear. I need more casual outfit ideas, bonus if their style is a little more edgy. I’m 30 years old so nothing too young and trendy. I’m newly postpartum but hoping to build a capsule soon with pieces from brands like pact, quince, Abercrombie, etc. Thank you!

for me it’s always the shirts, just because they are so light. but thinking shoes is maybe a wise one just because it adds so much diversity. just hard to pack. anyone care to share their wisdom on this?

For me it was doing a colour analysis and sticking to a colour family. Made selecting my palette, shopping, styling and creating outfits much more convenient.
