I appreciate how it is so colorful -- you're showing how a minimal capsule doesn't have to rely just on neutrals.</p> <p>I like the idea of your experiment, too. I've been contemplating something similar -- pulling back to a very small, tight collection as a clarifying exercise and a starting point for experimentation. Please keep us posted how this goes for you! I am taking notes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-22-item-spring-capsule/page/2#post-2257857 Sun, 03 Apr 2022 19:35:02 +0000 Jenni NZ 2257857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It’s very pretty. I don’t do this, I keep everything out all year since I have a large walk-in wardrobe space, I just change which tops or pants or dresses or shoes are at the front or the top of each section. Thinking about numbers though, I have 70 items of clothing for autumn/winter/spring so it’s the equivalent of about 23 items per season, before I even consider shoes or accessories. I definitely would need a higher number than your 25 or I think I would be frustrated and possibly not be able to keep up with laundering! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-22-item-spring-capsule/page/2#post-2257667 Sat, 02 Apr 2022 14:03:08 +0000 Lana 2257667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Indigoprint there’s a funny story about that shirt. I ordered a small and an extra small and it arrived from FED EX on a day I was mailing some returns. Somehow it got mailed AT THE US POST OFFICE with the rest of the packages. I did find out that Fed Ex picks up daily from the USPS for this very reason, but it never came back to me. </p> <p>Nordstrom was nice enough to refund my order and I ordered the last Small only to have it cancelled. After stalking it, another small showed up and I grabbed it. I’ll let you know if it makes it here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-22-item-spring-capsule/page/2#post-2257665 Sat, 02 Apr 2022 13:48:16 +0000 Indigoprint 2257665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I will be anxious to see you style that free people denim shirt. I have it in a shopping cart someplace.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-22-item-spring-capsule/page/2#post-2257548 Fri, 01 Apr 2022 12:55:07 +0000 Lana 2257548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Suntiger</b>, I did the same in Winter.

I’m in a Japanese journal group — I should ask them.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>Thank you <b>Barbara</b>, <b>Jonesy</b>, <b>Helena, Stylefan</b>&nbsp;and <b>Sisi</b>, I think I enjoy the planning part more than the actual implementation.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Jaime, </b>I’m a little nervous about those boots being too noticeable, but I’m going for it.&nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Bijou</b>, you’re right it would be a great travel capsule.

This will definitely be a learning experience. &nbsp;I think I will sub similar items — so if too cold for a graphic tee or it needs washing, I can wear another white top or sweater. Hopefully by the end I’ll know how many I need ideally. &nbsp;Good idea to track wears. &nbsp;</div><div><br /></div><div><b>Cat2</b>, I’ll let you know when they get here, they are a new purchase.

If you like things loose you could even go up 2 sizes. Here’s a pic of how it fits one size larger than my normal. I’m curious which other one you got too.</p> <p><b>Kkards</b>, definitely a beginning, but I tend to wear tops more than once as long as it’s not too hot. I suspect I will be subbing similar items such as another graphic tee or a long sleeve white top or sweater if needed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-22-item-spring-capsule#post-2257306 Wed, 30 Mar 2022 17:01:45 +0000 kkards 2257306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so are these the only items you will be wearing this spring? or is this the jumping off point, and all its need to go with these core items?<br />i'm asking because while i love the items that you've picked, and they are very cohesive, for me, it feels like you are light on shirts and tops. i'm only counting 4 (and a tank top). so not even enough to get thru a week without repeating.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-22-item-spring-capsule#post-2257303 Wed, 30 Mar 2022 16:31:02 +0000 slim cat 2257303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you&nbsp;<b>Lana&nbsp;</b>for the Amazon info - the graphic tee shirt is still available ( and at least one more of the same style ). The question is in the fit though - I'm usually XS in tops unless it's junior collection. Is your tee shirt fits TTS or slightly on the smaller side? I may go for it . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-22-item-spring-capsule#post-2257302 Wed, 30 Mar 2022 16:18:04 +0000 Lana 2257302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Star</b>, thank you, I recounted and it’s 25! &nbsp;Oh well.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div><b>Joy,&nbsp;</b>I’m already seeing a gap here today because it’s cold today and I need a warm coat. &nbsp;The capsule is growing LOL.
