Carter's Power Point Presentations

Anonymous

I am SYC this month (at least until NAS). To help focus my future shopping needs, I have been practicing my powerpoint skills (ala Carter). I am not good enough to get my entire capsule collection onto a single slide, but I have put together four slides (black work capsule, grey work capsule, casual white jean capsule, lounging capsule). It is amazing how this process highlights holes in a capsule. It has been a lot fun. Thanks Carter.

What I have learned. The capsules I currently have are pretty well developed. There really are no obvious holes or deficiencies. If I add pieces to the capsules, it will be to freshen them up or add interest. I would really like to start adding interest and flair to them.

Side note, my slides are not as visually gorgeous as Carter's but I can dream.

Ha! So glad you're finding value in doing the slides. I'm a visual person, so just looking at my excel list doesn't really capture the overall picture for me. The slides make everything so obvious...both the good and the bad. Keep us posted on how you're doing!

I converted it to a PDF. I thought I had attached PDFs in the past, but this won't load onto the post.

Sterling, I'm not familiar with Keynote, but perhaps you can save each slide as a JPEG. That's what I do when I want to post something here.

I wouldn't have thought of that Carter, Thank you.

This is the first page of my practice power power presentation. It features my "black" work capsule. I am going to keep adding to it until I have captured everything that should be part of this capsule. I'll do the same for all the other capsules.

Note: this is my Summer capsule. I will start to add in Winter at a later date.

Nice! It really helps to see it laid out like this, doesn't it? What are the two items at the bottom?

One is a fuchsia cardigan that fits in really well. The other is a grey cardigan that also works really well with this capsule. I wanted to capture them for memory sake.

Nice work. I'd love to do this someday too. I like to see things visually laid out like that as well. Thanks for sharing! Sounds like your capsules are great.

Crutcher -- the stripped shirt came from H&M. It was very reasonably priced. I wear it all the time.

Your work capsule looks great. It is a genius idea to visually do a powerpoint of your closet. I should do something like this too.
