I'm an Unfashionista.

I have a confession.

I dress like a boring person. I buy safe. I buy simple. And it's boring.

Honestly, I just never know what's the new "it" item, rarely feel good wearing "it," and I also don't have money to buy a new wardrobe every season.

I buy things on clearance that I like. Or sorta like. Or maybe it just fits. Kinda. Since I've been chatting all about stuff lately, I'm working on not buying items that I sorta like or might wear.

I want to buy nice items that I enjoy, feel comfortable wearing, and add confidence. I want to be intentional about what I buy and avoid collecting clothes just because they are on sale. In other words, I'd rather buy 15 items of clothes I love than 30 items I endure.

I recently read an ebook that gave me a starting point for being intentional about my closet and making my wardrobe work for me.

Have you heard of the No-Brainer Wardrobe by Haley Morgan from The Tiny Twig?

I learned about things like a capsule wardrobe, finding my style, and much more! If you are like me and are never sure about clothes, I would encourage you to take a look :)

Here's a mood board of my basic capsule. I love neutrals like navy, cream, and black. Yes, it is a little boring, but it is also very versatile and I would definitely wear all of these items:

Here's a mood board for my add-ins:

I love adding little fun pops of color. These are the items that add the fun to the outfit, but are still versatile. I want to work on purposefully purchasing items that add a little excitement but can still be used for more than one outfit.

We are starting the much anticipated closet purge tomorrow, and I am armed with my handy capsule wardrobe wish-list and my pre-purge survey! I'll let you know how it goes :) Just a peek into what needs to be sorted and cleaned...uffda...

Have any of you ever created a wardrobe capsule? Anyone else cleaning out their closets?
