Why Create A Capsule Wardrobe?

Articles· Lifestyle

17 Jan

 

I’m doing an online course over at The Busy Budgeter at the moment called Hot Mess to Home Success! 

Now. Let me just preface this by saying that I am already a pretty organised person, but every little bit helps right?!

Anyhoo,  one of the course modules speaks about having a capsule wardrobe.  When I read through it I’ll admit to being a bit confused. I honestly had no idea what the hell Rosemarie was talking about.  After working my way through (and a teeny tiny little bit of google searching), I find out that, in a nutshell, it’s only owning and wearing a small number of items each season that all go together (like 40 items, tops). At first, I’ll admit – I did think it was kind of weird. Why reduce your clothes? Why create a capsule wardrobe?

But then I realised. I only wear the same thing all the time anyway. Black, denim & heels. That’s basically my entire wardrobe (or at least, the stuff I actually wear).

So I figure I should give it a go.

I mean it’s a great idea really. Spend less time and money on clothes. Stop buying crap tops at cheap shops and spend good money on something quality you gush over and want to wear all the time.

Stop saying “I have nothing to wear” (whilst staring into a cupboard choc-full of stuff).

Now. No, before you yell at me – it does not mean you actually WILL be wearing EXACTLY the same thing all the time – this is the beauty of having every single item in the capsule with the ability to match everything else. A million different possibilities!! (well, almost).

The shoes are the only thing I may just have an issue with. I really like shoes. Like, I REALLY like shoes. At last count, I had over 50 pairs and that’s AFTER a massive cull upon moving house. I really don’t think I can reduce my shoes. It’s really one of the only forms of fashion self-expression I actually have (I don’t wear much makeup, nor jewelry and don’t care about owning a fancy handbag, but shoes….well that’s an entirely different matter, and besides we all know that anything matches with denim and black!)

So, long story short.  If you don’t have time to pick outfits, don’t want to waste time picking out things that go together, want to save money and especially want to look good all the time – then a capsule wardrobe is for you.

Try It. Trust Me.

Who Are You? A simple question which, when you th Who Are You?

A simple question which, when you think about it, sometimes isn't actually quite so simple to define. 

I'll tell you what does NOT define you:

Your Job
Your Salary
Your Education
Your Family
Your Situation

The essence of you should never be defined by other people's opinions.

A Jean Hailes Annual Women's Health Survey* reveal A Jean Hailes Annual Women's Health Survey* revealed that 67% of women reported feeling nervous, anxious or on edge nearly every day.

Over time, our life stressors can really take its toll and this sense of overload is, I don't doubt, a major reason why we as women don't see Self Care as a priority...and we should!

Today being International Women's Day, is another perfect opportunity for us all remember just how important Self Care is for all women.

Self care can take on many different forms and its Self care can take on many different forms and its not just about lighting candles and taking bubble baths (although to be fair, those ARE two of my favourite things - so no judgement here!!). 

It's about looking at your overall holistic health and making sure you are contributing equally to every section:  Physical, Mental, Spiritual, Emotional and Social. 

In other words, you need to take care of YOU.
