January 2024 – Sister Hack

First week with my new capsule! I started on Tuesday and here are my thoughts. Also I’m just taking these picture when I can and I have a messy house and at least one child with me at all times.

Tuesday. L.L Bean Sweatshirt with a white crew neck and Maurice’s Jeans. I took the children to the library in the morning and this worked great! And it was comfortable enough to wear all day. I also felt very confident in this outfit. Oh and it was 5 degrees outside.

Wednesday. Black popover, brown cardigan, and black leggings. I ended up adding a black tank top under the shirt for a bit more overage. Another comfortable outfit and I loved the elevated feeling of the popover.

Thursday. Black top, vest, and jeans. This was good too. The jeans kind of kept slipping down but they weren’t uncomfortable so that’s good!

Friday. Sweater, white crew neck and black jeans. I made it until 10am in the jeans and then changed into black leggings. The jeans were tight and uncomfortable. I think I will try another pair of Madewell jeans that are a bit more comfortable.

Saturday. Gray sweater with black crew neck and black leggings. This is one of my favorite outfits to wear. I always get compliments on this sweater. And it’s v comfortable!

Sunday. Sweatshirt, black T-shirt, and black leggings. This was a great easy outfit. Especially for Winter where we don’t do much on Sundays.

Monday. Matching green sweat set with white shirt. I’m pretty sure my shirt is backwards. And I still feel like I’m in PJs which is both a pro and a con.

Overall thoughts: I loved this! Getting dressed was so easy and I felt pretty put together most days. I’m going to make a few swaps going forward. Friday’s outfit I’m going to do a black crew neck and different jeans. I picked my second most comfortable madewell jeans. And Sunday I’m going to switch the back crew neck for a white one. I’m not super sure on Monday’s outfit. But I’m going to give it another week and see. I won’t do another week post since it’s going to look exactly the same lol. But I plan to do a new capsule for Spring. Possibly at the end of March as it can still be pretty cold up until then and even into April.

Emily here! I loved Maddie’s capsule wardrobe post and I’ve been wanting to do my own. But I feel very overwhelmed trying to curate a certain amount of pants and tops. However last week I was watching a YouTube capsule wardrobe video and this woman picked one outfit to wear each day and then she repeated it every week. So you have a designated outfit that your wear Monday, Tuesday etc. I’m going to give it a shot! My goal is that every outfit is comfortable but still feels put together. I don’t want to have to change my outfit if I have to leave the house. Although I try to leave the house on specific days and these outfits reflect that. Here are my outfit ideas.
