Hello my lovelies!
Yes, from the title of this post you will see that I’m a little late in posting a spring capsule. But as I’m somewhat limited for hanging space (See how this came about in this post HERE), the capsule has been happily evolving behind the scenes; it has to keep with the spring programne as the days change from sunny and warm to constant rain as it is today.
So what better time than a rainy day to see what I have in my mini wardrobe right now.
A word of warning. This ensemble is suited to a retired lady in her mid-70s, i.e. me, so don’t expect trendy new pieces! But perhaps this is the range of clothes you have in your wardrobe too, so you can relate.
Let’s start with bottoms, a good place to start when building up a capsule.
Bottoms - 4
Next step is tops. I’m finding that long sleeve tees seem to be my go-to currently.
Long sleeve tops - 4
Stone coloured linen. I’m debating this one and if I find myself not wearing it then it’ll go back in the archive wardrobe till summer.
Cardis - 3
I’ve gone quite heavy on cardis as a cardigan is an absolute must at this time of year, both outdoors and in!
Just in Case Extras hanging in the Archive
I’ve put together a reserve of spring pieces, just in case we get lucky with some warmer weather. In my dreams!
Any of these lighter weight navys and greys will slot in easily.
The idea is that I can quickly do a switch/archive, making this a reactive and dynamic capsule.
Using neutral colours in my core capsule means that these pieces are pretty much interchangeable.
So that’s me done, finally!
How are you doing with your spring choices?

Well done Mary, particularly like the first green outfit but you look great in everything. Some useful advice here! Trish x
ReplyDeleteThanks Trish, the green blends in nicely with the garden!
DeleteGlad you liked the post, Mary x
This looks a great spring capsule. You seem to have nailed this capsule thing for the season and I like this idea.
