I'll update this thread with daily posts with this week's outfits and update the list below summarizing my capsule. I am also updating fit evaluations and identifying items that need to be transitioned out of my capsule and beginning to evaluate what my needs are for February.
[Day 20-21 were not posted, but were a mix of exercise wear and post-exercise gear not included in the capsule and worn at the gym, around the house, and to get groceries.]
Day 22, I wore my boot cut jeans and my rust merino sweater, with a change up in necklace and introducing my navy pumps, for a half-day at work for shutdown activities. I've also added a WIW photo. I've been experimenting on a couple ways to get the picture -- my work bathroom mirror had sufficient light. The pants aren't quite as dark in real life, but they are a dark wash. They are a 'barely boot cut' and are designed to be a bit shorter than full boot cuts because there is just a small flare at the ankle.
It looks like we'll be back at work tomorrow!Bottoms:
