    I found this very helpful; thank you for sharing your process! Also I liked your comments about becoming more aware of conscious sustainable fashion. I hope to see more of that in your videos at some point. Very inspiring!

      I'm learning so much about sustainable/eco fashion! It's so inspiring and definitely want to add much more of that to my wardrobe!

    This video ended up in my feed and I'm so glad it did. That's a good point about personal style and how you see yourself dressing. SO important.

    You two are adorable! Thank you for sharing what you learned. I love the realizations and epiphanies that come from setting out on your first capsule. Since starting to capsule dress years ago, it's hard to believe that I used to approach shopping and dressing any differently xx

      I couldn't agree more! I'm only a season into and can't believe how much I used to fall for fashion marketing/sales/deals!!

    Loved this so much, I just started a summer capsule myself and I am already so excited to curate my fall wardrobe. You ladies gave some great tips, and yes Kimberly post more videos! 🤗

    My husband and I were enjoying a glass of wine at Vic's on Friday night. We love watching all the bridal parties down there. We had our reception at the Nicollet Island Inn. I swore the bride looked like your friend. If it was congratulations to Mrs. Miller

    This was beyond helpful and very enjoyable to watch! I love your energy together. Researching capsule wardrobes actually introduced me to sustainable eco friendly fashion and, like you, I defiantly want explore that avenue more. I'm so excited to see more UA-camrs interested in sustainable fashion 😄

    I love that you share your experiences but also take the time and reflect back on those experiences. Especially in a process such as the capsule wardrobe. The first time I tried one i felt I never looked put together bc the pieces i chose didnt always go well together. I will be trying again though!

    Madewell has the perfect cardigan, I need to pop in on my lunch break and get it, dark grey, comfy and lightweight

    You two so remind me of my sister and I. We live in Wisconsin so I feel like you are so relatable. I'd like to add more quality clothing pieces to my wardrobe eventually. Right now I'm pregnant which is how I found your videos, so I'm trying to work with the wardrobe I have and only add minimal pieces since I won't be able to wear them for that long. I'm really enjoying your content. 🙂

    I feel your pain on the weather changing so much. Last week all I wore was shorts, now I'm back in my jeans and hoodie. I thought it was supposed to be summer?? I'm still trying to pin down my style too. Don't feel bad, it takes time to figure out I think. Keep at it! Pact is a good company for ethical basics alternative apparel makes some nice things too.

    • @kittycotten
      @kittycotten  7 років тому

      Right?! Minnesota knows how to keep it interesting! Thanks for the recommendations!

  • @MissKriekentaart
    @MissKriekentaart 7 років тому

    Very inspiring to hear both of our experiences! I have tried a capsule wardrobe before but it didn't really work out for me for various reasons... I wanna give it another go sometime soon, but this time changing some of the pieces every month or so with other things I keep in storage.

    • @kittycotten
      @kittycotten  7 років тому +1

      I have a main capsule that I pull from daily, but the weather changes suddenly (which is very common in Minnesota) it doesn't bother me if I grab a sweater out of my previous seasons capsule or warmers shoes from a previous season. You just have to make it work for you. Don't worry too much about strict rules!

  • @WhatM-mv8fi
    @WhatM-mv8fi 7 років тому

    i never had basics, really just one white top and one in black 🙈 because basics are so boring to shop and they need to fit perfect 😥
    now i have basic tops in all shades of nude (cause i love that) and it helps me so much if i don't know what to wear: basic nude top and my favourite jeans jacket - pretty necklace and i'm done 👌
    in the past i had only patterned blouses or shirts and often didn't know what to wear. my summer wardrobe is perfect but for fall and winter i still don't have basics to combine with 🙊

  • @keely_cn8924
    @keely_cn8924 7 років тому

    I think the wacky weather in mn makes it a little bit harder to make a capsule wardrobe. Since we get like three seasons in one day.

  • @lori6704

    You should check out the Skipper cardigans at Madewell! They're a bit cropped and don't go too far past the hip. I really love it!

    super inspiring video and i love your capsule/style/that amazing brown couch! i tried to do a capsule but gave up, though i'm moving soon and ready to purge. perfect timing for a new capsule! luckily in san francisco the weather is the same pretty much all year so i'll only need one :)

    No way, this is wild - I thought your sister looked so familiar and when it said Kimberly I knew the connection! I met her a looong time ago when she dated my cousin and thought, "wow she is so gorgeous!" Crazy I've been following you for so long and just found this out. What a small world!

    I'm going to be doing a very brief capsule to define the gaps in my wardrobe. I wear the same three outfits all the time and am trying to break that pattern. My question for you is what did you notice that was missing from your capsule aside from a cardigan?

    • @kittycotten
      @kittycotten  7 років тому +1

      Now, that summer is here a good pair of loose denim shorts and comfortable sandals. I also noticed so much wear on my basics, so investing in quality basics is a priority for me too.

  • @saragedde6261
    @saragedde6261 7 років тому +1

    Did you use a formula for creating your capsule? So many pants, so many tops, etc? Starting my capsule in July! Thank you so much for the tips so helpful!!!

    • @kittycotten
      @kittycotten  7 років тому

      Not necessarily. I just pulled together what I thought would work for my lifestyle and personal style!

  • @siskykeane009
    @siskykeane009 7 років тому

    Hi! I think a cardigan with buttons only half way up will flatter your petite frame. I have an old cardigan from jcrew that has buttons half way up and a v-neck opening and it's uber flattering, not at all school-teacher!!

  • @sarahyic
    @sarahyic 7 років тому +3

    Did you notice that the pieces you chose were worn out at the end? How did you care for your pieces while doing the capsule?

    • @kittycotten
      @kittycotten  7 років тому +7

      YES! You can really see the "quality" of fast fashion when you do a capsule wardrobe with those pieces! They just don't look/fit the same after 3 months. Maybe I should do a video about caring for your capsule??

    Yeah, Sam can be a womanizer and a liar all he wants to, but if Cliff and Norm loved each other, that would be scandalous. The eighties were ridiculous.
