By golly, she’s got it! I want to remain comfortable, be able to nurse easily in public, and look a little bit more put together than I have been lately. The capsule wardrobe is done...officially...NO. TURNING. BACK. Ok, here we go…
Tops
- White patterned tank by Merona at Target
- Gray oversized tank from The Gap
I probably won’t need tanks in March in Colorado, but if I run out of nursing tanks they’ll be good to have. I’m also chomping at the bit for spring and summer, so I really want to believe I’ll need them!
3 & 4. Gray and black striped tee and solid black tee by Apt 9 at Kohl’s
The sleeves on these come almost to my elbows, which is more flattering on my arms, I think, than the regular short-sleeve length.
5-8. V-neck long-sleeved tees in white, black, royal blue, (not pictured) and forest green (I don’t know the actual names for the colors, this is just what I call them) from PINK by Victoria’s Secret
These are, in my opinion, the perfect t-shirts. They’re so soft and light, but still warm. Alice loves to rub her cheek against my shoulder when I’m wearing these tees.
9. Gold, long-sleeved top from Banana Republic
For when I feel shiny!
Bottoms
10. Lee Classic Fit Jeans
Pre-pregnancy, Baby!
11-13. TekGear yoga pants in black
I still wear yoga pants most days.
Layering and Outerwear
14. Oversized cardigan from Gap Body
Cozy, comfy.
15. Knitted poncho
16. Oversized, wool cardigan from Banana Republic
I’ll use this instead of a jacket on warmer days
17. Black, puffy coat
For the last of winter.
Accessories
18: Infinity scarf from Kohl’s
Will also work if I ever decide to cover when I nurse, which I usually don’t.
19. Cashmere sarong
A gift from my father-in-law last Christmas.
20. Silk and cashmere sarong
A gift from my father-in-law the Christmas after we were married. Incidentally, this is one of my go-to pieces for flying, because it’s big enough to wrap up in on the plane. We’re not traveling this season, but I thought I’d mention it.
21. Light scarf
A gift from my friend Christin. This is interesting. She doesn’t use gift wrap. She wrapped a gift for Alice in this scarf for me. I love this idea! I think I’ll try it for myself at some point…
22. Flannel scarf
23-25. Black, structured cloche hat; Gray and black, floppy cloche hat; Black beret
The beret is so that I can pretend I’m French! Just kidding. Sort of. Also, I know this photo isn’t great, but it was taken during nap time after vaccinations. See the napping photo bomb?!
26. Brown, leather bag from Clarks
I know, everything else is black, but I don’t have a nice, black bag that’s big enough.
27. Black belt
You can change the whole feel of an outfit with a belt. This one happens to be a hand-me-down already, and this month may do it in for good.
28. Earth-tone belt
Jewelry
29. Pink pearl necklace and earring set
Maybe I should count this as two things, but I almost always wear them as a set, so I’m not going to. P.S. Don’t they look so pretty in this picture?! They were a Christmas gift from my husband the first year we were married. We couldn’t afford them, but I love them.
30. Vintage earrings from T.J. Maxx
I coat these with clear nail polish because they’re costume jewelry and I don’t want them to turn my ears green!
31. Silver bracelet
Shoes
32. Dansko Tennis Shoes
Ummmm…
33. I’m sure I’ve forgotten something that I’ll panic about when I realize I didn’t include it. That’s where this spot will go.
What do you think? Is it worth taking some pictures of how I combine the pieces and posting? Barring that, this is the last you'll hear of this until the end of the quarter. The idea is, after all, to put it all together and forget it, so that my mind is free to do something else. See you in the next post...
