The pieces I selected for this season are more then ever about having comfortable fit and being casual in style. As I’m starting the fall capsule, I’m also celebrating my two year anniversary of dressing with the rules of Project 333. I can't believe two years have passed already. I still remember how much I hesitated to make my first capsule. It seemed such an impossible task. I'm glad it wasn't and I'm grateful for all I'm learning from my ongoing experiment.
Now I like each capsule a little bit more and I quite enjoy creating new seasonal ones.
Next, I've tried making collages that showed the individual pieces of clothing. These collages were useful for me because they showed a simplified and orderly picture of my belongings. It helped me see how well everything worked together and it spurned me to be a bit more creative in the way I put outfits together.
This time, I decided to give the video format a try and I'm hoping film will aid me to show the contents of my capsule and wardrobe to others. I hope it will work out alright and you enjoy having a closer look inside my closet!
Besides showing the pieces of my fall capsule and the setup in my closet, I also talk about my storage for off season pieces and where I keep "extras" like swim-, active-, sleep- and underwear.
Another thing I wanted to show is a bag filled with donations that I just pulled from my closet. Believe it or not, after two years of capsule dressing and years of pursuing minimalism, I find that I’m still minimizing my possessions. Each season I’m surprised that I have a shopping bag worth of donations that no longer have a place in my life. At this very moment, my donation bag is full and I can’t imagine parting with any more items. But this might change after three months living and growing as a person and then going through all my things again in order to set up my winter capsule. We will see...
