Minimalist Winter 2022 Capsule Wardrobe 🎄

I always think that ones home reflects how we feel inside our body mentally and physically.

So when a space does not feel cozy and warm and clean, it does have an impact on my mood.

Lately, I get the feeling that on the surface everything is clean, organized and tidy, but inside some of my drawers and closets it looks a bit... ruffled. I'm dealing with some extra stuff that's not meant to be there.

- Extra, extra clothing bits like camisoles and undershirts that I should probably be more intentional with and keep just a few out for each season.

- Slime making, art supplies, tennis rackets and balls got stored in the closet.  

Not good.

And while I'm switching over my capsule wardrobe to my winter pieces I'm determined to also tackle the extra stuff situation with reorganization, cleaning and decluttering.

"Your home is an extension of your energy field. This is why practices like cleaning your home, rearranging furniture, organizing your closet  and getting rid of objects that are cluttering  your space can have a profound impact on  your own mind, body, and spirit." - Maryam Hasnaa

CAPSULE     INTENTIONS

With every capsule season I set a few intentions I like to let roll around in my mind and work on.  This time it's the following:

- inventory and reorganize my out of season clothing

- take photos of my closets (maybe these visuals will help me improve these closet spaces) 

- find laundry solution separate from my husband's 

- look to incorporate special occasion wear in future capsules:holiday wear (Christmas sweater or pjs, 4th of July tees or festive accessories etc) Airstream (flamingo mascot) and camping themed clothing and jewelry
