Last winter was my first winter after relocating, and it was unseasonably warm. This year has been colder (relatively speaking for the Carolinas) and wet with a little snow on Christmas and several ice/freezing rain/wintry mix storms. This allowed me to pull out some of my Indiana winter wardrobe and use it, unlike last winter where I barely needed sweaters. Given pandemic restrictions, I haven't bought much - some scrubs and long underwear (for underneath) for my classes. I did pick up the top in Finds from Target, in the blue and in a heathered gray for at-home wear that looks a bit nicer than sweats. I indulged my shopping/buying itch a bit toward skincare and makeup instead.
Most everything casual in my wardrobe got worn, although I've been favoring 'real' sneakers over my retro sneaker collection, since the latter aren't as supportive. I've been working hard to get everything (except the really dressy stuff) into the rotation and I think I did pretty well. Problem is, I've got way more items than I really need given my current lifestyle, but since they still fit and I like them, I don't see any point in getting rid of anything at this juncture.
For spring, I'm toying with the idea of a modified capsule approach - for my labs and for my shifts at the bookstore I've got my uniforms already, so it's only a few days a week I can be more creative. At least one of those ends up being a 'never leave the house' day in loungewear, so I'm only left with two or so days to properly dress. Maybe a 30x30 that's more like a 15x20, but for a couple of months? I'm still not sure.
