I keep 2 pairs of pants for working on the homestead and a few flannel shirts. Most days I can wear something from my capsule wardrobe anyways.
I decided to follow some of my fellow bloggers in that they don't use 33 pieces {see the Unfancy blog} (they pick a number that works for them, she uses 37.) and I am not including my accessories. But, I did list them in this post just because I want to make sure that they all match and I gave myself a limit to contain them a bit better, as I can get out of control sometimes. I applaud people who can have 33 items including accessories and shoes. I'm just not there yet! I have 40 items with clothing pieces alone here. I'll get there one day. It's still a marked improvement upon the huge walk-in closet jammed with clothes!
Lets get to the pieces. Here is what I picked for Spring 2015.

Since I plan on taking my husband out for a special dinner in April (It's his birthday!) and our first anniversary will be in June and I will still be doing this capsule wardrobe; I am including a dress or two for those events that are not included in my number and will only be worn once or twice. I debated putting the dress in the capsule wardrobe and being done with it, but the reality is that I won't wear it for any other functions. (unless, God forbid, I have to go to a funeral)
Great project! Keep it up and thank you so much for share. Please visit my site Yahoo customer service number
