You've helped me realize I need to focus on elevated lounge wear and jeans, tee shirts, casual sweaters. That's the reality of what I wear in my retired life living in a mountain outdoorsy community. I'm working on phasing out the "maybe I'll have lots of fancy dinners out" shopping. I have a pair of faux leather pants that are frankly as dressy as it's gonna get! I've been getting compliments that I look put-together and fashionable even in my sweats! Thanks to you they are mostly off-white, beige and navy. I add my white sneakers or lug Chelsea boots, jewelry and a cute off white beanie or baseball cap, throw on my beige puffer jacket and out I go! 💜

Of all the videos I’ve watching trying to create a capsule wardrobe this one was the absolute BEST one! Thank you for being so thorough. I finally understand how it all goes together.

Dear Melissa, I’ve been watching your videos for a couple of years and never miss one. For some reason though I’ve still not been able to translate this to my life despite how clear your instructions are. I’m one of those people who walks into a shop and feels instantly overwhelmed, not knowing where to start so I just end up leaving with nothing and ultimately getting nowhere. I feel such dread when I try to shop for clothes and I know it’s an activity that is actually supposed to be fun! As someone who needs to probably replace 90% of my wardrobe and desperate to look put together, I was wondering if you’d consider doing a video on shopping strategies? How and where does one even begin when you feel like to need to start from the beginning? All the best! ❤

Wow! BRAVO 👏The absoltue best info about a capsule wardrobe I've ever read about or seen a video on! I love how you broke it down and emphasized how it should be suitable to our lifestile. I've been working with capsule wardrobes for a few years now by season, since I live in an area with 4 seasons. I still struggled when making decisions and buys for that capsule. I've even bought workbooks to help me! Watching this finally made it click together. Gosh you are just the best. If I could afford you I'd buy your services and all your clothing recommendations, so these free videos are invaluable to me! Thank you so MUCH! Can't wait to watch more from you!

Love this video. I'm 69, retired and rarely go out. I now have an idea of how to declutter my wardrobe and let some of those 'just in case' pieces go.

[minelng]

Absolutely the best video I have seen on this subject. Such a relief to know I can stop searching for the perfect blazer and black trousers which everyone else insists I need but would never fit in with my lifestyle! I am feeling inspired to dive in to my wardrobe and add a few more pale neutrals first then fine-tune the shoe collection 😂. Thank you Melissa, you are an inspiration xx

[catecullen]

This is THE best video on building a capsule wardrobe I have ever watched.The way you describe everything so clearly makes it so much more doable. Thank you so much. I'm currently binge watching all your other videos too.

The timing of this video couldn’t be more perfect. I spent literally all day yesterday cleaning out more than a decade of clothes, being pretty ruthless. I know I’ve kept some things I shouldn’t and still have too much, but maybe in another month or so, I’ll go through again. I’m fair skinned, freckled, with pink undertones and I always avoid whites, which became evident when I sorted by color after watching this. I have some cream but clearly not enough and most are loose patterns to bring in peaches and browns! Perimenopause has made me a lot curvier in the last few months so I’m going to help myself feel better by shopping for a wardrobe of basics that will flatter my new shape, with help from your videos. Thank you!

P.S. I decided that the best justification for getting rid of the “I might fit in that again one day” clothes is that if I do lose weight, that’s a reason to go shopping for new items later and update anything that might be showing its age!

[opthemystic]

You have given me the ability to actually envision myself putting together a capsule wardrobe! Thank you! You're a wonderful speaker and teacher of essential topics! ❤

[xncyrqm]

Wow!!!! I have never thought about the light white/cream neutral in different weights and just swapping them 🤯! Genius!!

[missykemp]

I thought I had seen everything that could be depicted in a capsule wardrobe video, but this is far and away the most truly helpful and clearly explained one I have ever watched. Thank you.

You have really helped me over the last couple of years to curate my wardrobe. I mostly wear casual clothes and most of the time nobody really sees me in my everyday clothes but my family. Mi am a full time caregiver to one of my children. What I had a hard time with is outfits for special occasions and when I get a week off and go out of town. I felt I had nothing to wear and the. Reality was I didn’t. I had a mix of things I had purchased over the years that didn’t really go together or didn’t fit anymore. So if something came up I would have to run out and buy something and I would grab whatever fit and then it wouldn’t be worn again and probably didn’t go with anything else I had. The hardest part has been I’m in my early 50’s and about 99% of the time I am having a hot flash and wish I wasn’t wearing anything. 😂. Because of you and your videos I have a better understanding of how to fit my changing body and what will work for me and what won’t. I now have four pairs of neutral slacks of different fabric weights for the different seasons. I have long sleeved and short sleeved neutral tops of different fabrics for the different seasons. I am still working on my shoes. For the most part I am in my running shoes. 😂. Sorry for my rambling I just want to say thank you for all of your great tips and information. I felt clueless about fashion for the last ten years and you have made me feel more confident. 🤗💜🫶🏻😃

Haven’t even finished the video but it is already the most helpful wardrobe video I’ve ever seen! 🙏🏽

[SM-yzxd]

This is the best video I’ve seen on building a capsule wardrobe!
Seeing the side by side pictures of the two different wardrobes was a lightbulb moment. I could see my wardrobe with all the many colors and patterns and it felt very overwhelming compared to your wardrobe. Your wardrobe would make it enjoyable to pick out your daily outfit.

[nataliemcallister-oyzy]

No-one else can do these styling videos as good as you Melissa!! Its such good advice. Happy new Year to you, Monty and the gang! Thank you

I retired in 2018 and for several years my wardrobe was full of things i wore to work, smart outfits, business suits and dresses etc. My everyday clothes were crammed in. I realised how silly it was to keep all that workwear. I wasn't going to business meetings or into the office in the City. I felt bad as a lot had been quite expensive. But I saw one of your earlier videos on capaule wardrobes, and I let them go (first charity bag over 80 items and barely made a dent!) and felt seriously relieved. I started to think about dressing for my new life. I have drifted but mainly buying mire than I need as cheering up treats and to be honest a bit of boredom. So this video is such a good reminder. The charity bag eill be making another

[JoRke]

Oh Melissa you're incredible, I loved loved loved this. I've saved a few of your videos but this one will be one I refer to forever! Years ago I was so conditioned to think I can't buy another top in that colour as I already have one but what you have taught me and all of us makes so much sense and it's put across so well. You're right, all the 'influencers' tell you the exact items u should have in your capsule wardrobe and that is not the right way to approach it. I've had 3 massive clearouts since lockdown and I still could chuck out 90% of my clothes and not miss them. I really want 2024 to finally be the year I sort myself out 😆. Sorry for the long comment but thank you so so much for what you do on here, you give me & all of us hope xx

So glad to hear you talk about 'you must have a white shirt'. I hate a white shirt! You can guarantee as soon as I put it on, it will get marked somehow, and I have no idea how! I cook a lot and although I wear an apron, I still end up with spots and splashes, no matter how careful I am.

[rosemarieprince]

OMG that mixed bag of clothing with lots of colors and prints is definitely my closet.
