Capsule Wardrobe Part 2 : Let's Get Real
I love clothes! I'm a fashion blogger for god sake. I had pretty much decided against calling myself a minimalist when I started this blog. Until I realized something... I've been doing this blog for nearly a year, and I've noticed that I'm featuring almost the same base pieces almost every week. Denim, leather, flannel, sneakers... they show up again and again. I see the same clothing items being used in my recreations week to week and am realizing how easy it is to narrow down. If anything - tomboy style...
Building a Capsule Wardrobe
You may have heard of a capsule wardrobe before. A capsule wardrobe was coined by Susie Faux, the owner of a London boutique called "Wardrobe" in the 1970s.

You are probably thinking as was I, "These clothes are going to be WAY to big for me!" What if I could show you that, with a few little tweaks to his clothing items, you too could look fashionable, cute and right on trend in his clothes. This week I borrowed my favourite plaid and striped button up shirts from my man's closet and...
Upgrade to Suede
Oh my this jacket is NICE. Like ... really really nice. I would sleep in it, but I worry what would become of my ego if I felt and looked this badass all the time. This suede and lamb leather jacket features a asymmetrical zip and buckle detail at sides. For this recreation, I paired it with a crochet scarf, desert boots & my trusty baseball hat. The scarf was handmade by my friend Tanis. You can check out her awesome selection of scarfs, hats & more here. The beautiful...
