How to Build Your Perfect Capsule Wardrobe | Minimalist Fashion

I’m happy already with my 300 piece capsule wardrobe. Thanks. 🤭

Wow I’m glad I found this link! Yes, I’ve been working on my capsule wardrobe. It was tough at first, so I’ve been doing it in layers. I did it once… and it felt so good to clean out and see how much easier it was to get dressed. So now, every 3 mos I’ve been working on my capsule wardrobe! Each time donating more and more and seeing that I don’t need a lot to look sharp. I’m finding that the things that I have chosen to keep are my best pieces that look really nice on me. Instead of just making things work on my body, what I have now just works! No fussing around. I also did 3 piles (keep, donate, maybe). Anything needing a repair, button, dry clean I donated. The “maybe” pile I picked from was if I needed to complete an outfit from my “keep” pile. Even if it wasn’t quite 100% I used it until I decided it was time to purchase the piece I needed. I’ve learned to shop with intention and also to be choosy on what pieces to invest in, and the quality, and how long it will last and if it will go out of style. Life is so much more fulfilling when I’m not bogged down with “stuff”!

One of the best things I've ever discovered! I am LOVING minimalism and intentional living; it's helping my stress and anxiety levels so much!

It's taken me a long time to curate a good wardrobe for a few reasons. One is that it just costs money to get things that are high quality and worth investing in, and two it's taken me a while to learn that I might like how something looks on a hanger, but I like how it looks on my body. It's just a lot of experimenting to discover my basics

If you feel like you have too many “ going out” clothes but you love them and don’t want to get rid of them, try wearing them with casual shoes and accessories. Sometimes you can easily dress clothes down and make them more everyday friendly.

Speaking of seasons, would you recommend two capsule wardrobes for people who live in very seasonal areas, like Chicago or New york? Thank you, I love your videos!

Id love a minimalist wardrobe, but i still need a section for work clothes since they are completely different aesthetics

Your voice calm and soothing 🥰

Her entire wardrobe = the clothes I carry when I travel… this won’t work for me… it’s not practical for me..

I love your shirt looks like linen. Please let me know the brand. Thanks!!

I'll do my best to live a minimalist life this year. Though I have been following you when you still had 1k subs, only now did I finally binge watch your videos again about minimalism. Thank you for sharing your wisdom 💛

Can i please have the brand name of the khaki/olive shirt you have put on in this video? It looks so elegan.Thank you!

❤

Thank you so much for this video! It is just what I needed! I am moving overseas and I have so many clothes! Most of them I don't even wear but somehow I just never found the courage to let them go! But now I at least have an idea on how to get started! Oh and by the way that tan little doggie of yours looks just like mine🥰

What exactly is a capsule wardrobe? Is this your entire wardrobe? If so, why is it called a capsule?

Can you list the green shirt that you are wearing (during the video )

3 jumpsuit

I have watched all your minimalism videos ❤️❤️❤️ all i wanna say they are absolutely great to watch ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you. I recently moved to a small apartment and I don't have much room. I need to get rid of so many things not just clothes. But the last time I sorted my closet I had such a mess it was hard to get it under control again. So, I like your hanger idea. Also, You gave me a great idea. I'm going to go to the paint store and get some paint samples that go with each other in the tones that go well with my skin, and I'm going to use it as a guide for my clothes.

Thought full video love u

I also want to throw this out there for folks: women's shelters and places that help women enter/re-enter the workforce would also love gently used clothing donations if you're not concerned with making money off of your "get rid of" pile.

You are Gorgeoussssss

You look like princess moana ❤️

Wonderful video. You have a lovely voice and such artistic shots. It was incredibly helpful that you gave actual numbers and shared what you had in your wardrobe. Thank you for such a helpful video!

Ur vlogs makes me sleep 😴

I like your calm voice

So I guess I already have a "capsule" wardrobe. Mostly because I really don't like shopping

I really love your style & colors. I need to wear cool colors to look my best though & I feel self conscious in sleeveless. I still gain inspiration from seeing your pieces.

she is beautiful with REFORMATION DRESS :

Can you tell us where you get your tank tops please?

I love your video and the ideas thanks so much 🙏 💕

Sophie it's almost not fair. You have that lovely coffee coloured skin that most of us would ditch our fake tans for.
I'm your opposite, fair hair, freckles but at least natural dark eyelashes ! So clothes..well, i noticed, and love, that you stick to earthy colours mainly, pale or dark. With gorgeous simple dark floral dresses...then an accent or two of colour punch. Turquoise is one of my favs for a simple silky neck scarf or t.shirt. pink is great but the right shade is important. (Not bubblegum for me). I had a pale pink electric guitar years ago. Adored it. Leant it to a friend of a friend, and it was destroyed in a fire. You live & learn ! Bless you sweet lady. Love your attitude & help. 💖🌅🌊

I love that green shorts at the beginning of the video❤️

My problem is I can't find comfy bras that are cute and can be worn under tanks. I've got the saggy mom boob thing going on and it makes it difficult to feel styled (if that makes sense).

I decided to try doing a capsule wardrobe, though not as small as yours, and i found what i tend to reach for the most. Some i knew were already my favorites, some i didn't realize that i didn't reach for as much as i thought i did. I did take into account the change in weather as i don't wear shorts in winter, Cali girl.
I think Marie kondo had a good idea, but i found testing my wardrobe out first before i got rid of things led to less regret.

Great breakdown thank you!

New viewers🦋 owemjii this channel is one of my favorite it helps me more to understand the importance of being minimalist in life hhhuhu,

I love your neutral pieces you have in your wardrobe. You inspired me to shop for more basic pieces and let go of items that no longer suit my personality. Thank you.

I love your style, but I also really love your video editing/filming style.

It would be nice to see how to build a wardrobe when you don,t have a lot of money and not the right clothes. Do you buy just the pieces for your dream wardrobe over time? How does that work when your lifestyle changes or with weight gain and weight loss?

You probably already have , but what is your favorite style of rainbow flip flop ?🤪😀

Great Video Sophie !!!.

First I just want to start out by saying I absolutely love your videos. They really calm my anxiety. My capsule wardrobe consists of 7 tank tops that I wear with everything and I mix and match. I have 1 blouse and I have 3 sweaters. Then I have 3 pairs of jeans and 2 skirts but I am definitely planning on getting more skirts soon and maybe a long casual dress. Since minimizing my closet my anxiety has decreased so much and I know what I’m going to wear everyday and there is no frustration of feeling like I have no clothes. I basically wear the same thing everyday but I love it so much! It’s so stress free. Thank you for your amazing well thought out videos.

Just to revisit... Having various types of outerwear has been a real treasure here in the 4 season area!
1. Rain jacket
2. Poncho
3. Car coat
4. Wind breaker
5. Down short + 3/4 length
6. One soecial occasion wool
(Gloves & Scarves as accessories)
