I've finally narrowed down my choices for a spring work capsule. I've decided to give the capsule option a go from now until June 20. I started utilizing pieces in the capsule April 1. I've finally got the pieces together to show you. Boy, was it hard. I wanted to include so many but had to keep telling myself this is just for spring and there is still summer coming. I did not want to photograph each item so I've made sets of similar or the same item from the internet. My apologies to those of you who saw my strange polyvore posts. I don't use polyvore much so it was a learning curve for me.
On to the capsule: I am going to create my work outfits from 37 pieces for the aforementioned time frame. I decided not to include casual weekend pieces in my capsule because my weekend needs fluctuate so much. I may eventually get around to settling on another casual capsule but for now I'll just play with the work wear. I did not include shoes or accessories. Those are free range. My self imposed rules are that I can swap out two pieces at the end of thirty days if these just aren't working. I'm also allowing myself to utilize pieces not in the capsule on two occasions if necessary as long as one capsule item is still included in the outfit. Want to play along? Feel free to and let me know in the comments.
Here are my choices: 11 tops
