Capsule #2 // Outfit 16

Does this striped top look familiar? Surprise! It’s actually the dress from yesterday’s post–I know! I’m wearing a dress under my skirt. You just never know what I’m going to do next. Creativity–it’s the capsule wardrobe way.

So, carrying on the 90’s theme from the last post, check out these clogs. I’m just as obsessed with these as I was with my pair from middle school. The 90’s are back, y’all. Part of me feels slightly terrified about that fact, but the other part of me is secretly loving all the old, laughable things like clogs and, you know, the music. (I made a playlist of 90’s jams, just so we can reminisce properly. Get it here.)

Anyway, enough of that. I’d wear this outfit to a client meeting, a wedding/baby shower, or a downtown gelato date with my hubby (I’ve been dying to try out Dolce Neve here in Austin).

Do you have anything in your capsule wardrobe that you can repurpose in an unexpected way?

Top: JCrew Factory (It’s a dress!)

Skirt: Express

Shoes: American Eagle

Bag: old from Emma Fox

    Caroline, such a cute idea! I was curious, would you ever consider posting images/links of your ideal and/or current entire capsule collection? Or maybe a dream capsule collection? Or a “capsule collection on a budget?” (my personal fave!). I just love your taste and I think this would be a fantastic little series :) If you aren’t a fan of posting…just e-mail it to me ;)

    I love your clogs! And I’m pretty excited some 90s stuff is coming back :) I love repurposing shirts over dresses. I have a striped grey tee that I wear knotted at the waist over a navy cotton dress :)

    I love this dress, your past two posts are so inspirational for building a capsule wardrobe. Something I am just starting to try and do!
