Another Common Capsule Wardrobe, with romance

Some of these accessories are the same as an earlier version of the "romance" idea, and some of them are very specifically chosen to do justice to the warmth of this wardrobe... so anybody who thinks that brown is too masculine needs to think again! A Common Capsule Wardrobe can be as feminine as one wishes...

Another Common Capsule Wardrobe: warm colors

Ever since the beginning of A Common Capsule Wardrobe, I've been asked to show what I would consider to be a version for someone who prefers warmer colors.  While this version isn't going to be quite as versatile as the original, it's certainly got plenty of potential.  Does anybody want me to expand on this one, with accessories?

Top row – L.L.Bean, cream shirt – Kitsune, peach blouse – Chloe, cardigan & v-neck sweater – L.L.Bean, brown 

 long-sleeved tee – La Garconne, tan pants – Jil Sander, cream jeans – Les Copains, brown pants – Maison Martin Margiela

The Six Pack! – in camel & blue

September 21, 2012   I've been thinking a lot about the idea of having a target number of garments to pack.  The clarity and focus that this lends to the packing process is interesting, and can be useful if you're the kind of person who wants to toss their entire closet into the suitcase...  Today, I'm over at Tish's, exploring the possibilities.  

love,

Janice

Build a Capsule Wardrobe by Starting with a scarf: Hermès Arbre de Vie

June 2, 2012

Yes, you are seeing LOTS of "what to wear with" - especially with scarves. You can't imagine how many requests I received... But I like these little vignettes; even if you don't want to buy or wear the scarf, the colors in the scarf can be a great springboard for a few well-coordinated outfits!

And for great scarf tying ideas, check my friend Mai Tai's site; she is the complete GENIUS of scarf tying...

A Four by four Capsule Wardrobe: in camel and grey

Every day, I get a request for capsule wardrobes in camel and grey - I hasten to satisfy!And please note, I'm NOT suggesting that your entire wardrobe should be 12 garments. (unless that's what is best for you, in which case I support your choice completely!)  This is a plan for wardrobe coordinating, and updating.  The number of these "pods" you choose to have is entirely up to you...

Also, if you're not fond of wearing classic styles, or if you're looking for garments for warmer (or cooler) weather, just substitute similar garments that please you more for the ones which I have chosen.  These guidelines are intended to be just that - guidelines - and not a specific prescription for what you should ...
