Day 1 of the #winter10x10 is here, and I kept it really simple today with jeans, a tank top and an old grey sweater. It’s nothing special, but it beats track pants all day long and I’m still super comfortable! A few of you have mentioned trying it. I can’t wait to see what you pick for your 10 pieces!!! I’m sharing more about it in my stories along with some fellow 10x10 friends, so check it out! #capsulewardrobe #10x10challenge #10x10friends #winterwardrobe #momstyle #cdnblogsquad

10 days, 10 items: An Experiment
I jumped on the bandwagon for Unfancy + StyleBee’s “10x10 Winter Capsule Challenge.” The premise being: pick 10 items, and wear those for 10 days, and see what happens, what you learn. For me, as a chronic shopaholic, I was looking forward to some lessons.
The pieces above are what I chose. I didn’t choose them in advance. I didn’t choose them with much care. I just got dressed with an intention of looking and feeling good. Except on yoga days, when I got dressed with an intention of getting sweat all over everything. :) I defined “my 10 days” as “every day I left the house” and “my 10 items” as “everything but outerwear, shoes, and accessories.”
My Pieces:
        1x basic long sleeve scoop-neck tee
        1x basic long sleeve v-neck tee
        1x basic short sleeve tee
        1x chambray tank blouse
        1x chiffon tank blouse
        1x yoga pants
        1x jersey maxi skirt
        1x high-waisted mini skirt
        1x long-sleeve wrap dress
Oops, that’s 9. As Caroline would say, “how fascinating!” Haha. I guess I kind of lived in my white waffle knit zip-up sweater, so we’ll call that #10.
My Outfits:
You can see the outfits I made with them on my brand new Instagram account: @aspiring.minimalist
        Day 1:  2+8
        Day 2:  9
        Day 3:  1+6
        Day 4:  5+7
        Day 5:  5+8
        Day 6:  4+7
        Day 7:  1+2+6
        Day 8:  3+7
        Day 9:  2+4+8
        Day 10: 4+9

Takeaways:
1.  I am not a planner. Even for a challenge where 1,500 other people made lists and mapped out outfit formulas, I still woke up every morning and pulled together some random shit. And it totally worked for me.
2.  I hate pants? Maybe because the weather was pretty mild (35-50°—unheard of in January in Boston) but I gravitated towards skirts & dresses more than usual, and fleece/sweater tights proved totally adequate! It actually gave me confidence about maintaining my femininity as winter sets in, which I always feel like I lose when the cold sets in and I want to hibernate in flannel forever.
3.  Accessories are key. For maintaining winter warmth, layering is key; but for maintaining winter sanity (e.g. not feeling like the aforementioned style-less blob person), having an array of accessories makes me feel put-together and gives my style fluidity, even when I am bundled up, or just wearing basics. With Outfit 1 as an example, that outfit would be so blasé sans my golden bling.  Also that scarf-as-turban on Day 8 was so dope. Channeling my inner Badu!
I will never again forsake, or forego buying, colorful scarves, wild headbands, statement necklaces, bold cuffs, sparkly earrings, or chunky rings. 
4.  Not everything has to match in a capsule. I would never mix my tomato red tee with my heather slate blue maxi. Ever. And that’s ok, becauseit mixes with other items in my closet. I was watching this video by Hilary Rushford and after years of comparing myself to the “niched and narrowed” dressers of the world (people like Caroline of Unfancy, who was running this challenge), for the first time, felt really validated to not fit into that box:
“[SJP, Lupita N’yongo, and Emma Stone] have really diverse and eclectic styles: they can do tomboy or whimsical or modern or vintage, and really play—and often times will surprise you—with what they’re wearing. Neither way is better or worse, it’s just the choice that you want to make. You can have a style that’s really honed in and well-curated, or one that’s really diverse—and be equally fashionable.”
5.  Overdressed kicks underdressed’s butt anyday. Unlike Caroline, I am not so “unfancy.” Day 1 I was feeling can’t-get-out-of-bed-level-horrible, but as soon as I put on every gold accessory I owned, I was ready to take on the day. I wore my date night wrap dress and miniskirt on days I had to babysit—not because it was practical, but because it wasn’t impractical, and it made me feel good/confident. The first day I had kids, Day 3, wearing just a scoop tee and yoga pants and no jewelry? I felt like a slob, and when the kids raged, I didn’t have energy to meet them with authority—I can’t help but attribute that in part to my haphazard dress. But my schmance has limits: the only thing I won’t do is wear fancy footwear to do casual things. Ain’t nobody got time fo’ foot pain. 
Best & Worst: 
The outfit that got the most compliments was definitely Outfit 8. It was simple, but the seaming on the maxi, and the side knot on the tee, made it fashionable. Thank you, Pinterest. And two different MALE friends told me, “You look really great today. Your clothes match your eyes.” Which made me feel really great.
The outfit I felt worse in was far and away Outfit 3. I’m just not a casual kind of gal. And that is ok. Also the proportions of short person + flare pants and large bust + shapeless shirt were not the best. My tried-and-true skinny jeans got a huge rip last month, so my wardrobe has felt a bit “off” lately. It took me 10 years to try skinny jeans, and now i have no idea why I ever wore anything else. I will be so thankful when my Girlfriend Collective leggings come!
Is This Minimalism?
Who knows. It certainly “proved” I can live with less, but it didn’t make me want to. I still wanted to wear my new clothes more than my old clothes. Fashion is a form of self-expression for me, in the same way music is, so I enjoy having a lot of tools to do that. But I do think the challenge of finding new ways to combine things made me realize that old things can feel new when you mix ‘em up. Or, accessorize them. My newfound appreciation for accessories give me hope for escaping wardrobe boredom! 
But Hilary Rushford’s 1st video in her Style Series is I think a better way, maybe the best way to push and challenge yourself and get out of that “rut” feeling.
I’ve been feeling in a “boredom rut” about various parts of my life, and turning to shopping as a quick-fix. Maybe the next post will discuss that?

Days 4-6 of the #winter10x10 The 10 items are surprisingly flexible. The left is an outfit I wore to a meeting, the middle is what I wore on a sick day (pj-like comfort) and I did readings and some light home repairs in the outfit on the right. 💁🏼 (at Buffalo, New York)

Day 3! I love this hat--I don't wear it enough because it's so windy in SF. But glad to wear it with this mock neck and wide leg outfit! Yay!

On the blog, details + lessons learned from my #winter10x10 wardrobe challenge. "I'll admit to having a moment of panic when I realized that, truly, I already have a wardrobe I love. What does that mean for my love of making? Is everything else from here on out pure excess?" Read on through the link in my profile!

Outfit 9: Merino Tunic + Thai Pants = Funky Fresh! I am a sucker for pockets. Pockets are my everything. It’s one of the many reasons I love these pants. And they actually hold things! . #winter10x10 #slowfashion #lessismore #fairootd #ootd #outfitoftheday #unfancyremix #stylebee10x10 #fewerbetter #minimalistcloset #capsulewardrobe #ethicalfashion #project333 #styleblog #styleblogger #dailylook #minimalistfashion #sustainablefashion #merino @thaipantsmovement #thaipants #yogistyle@icebreaker_ca

I’ve swapped out the sweater since this photo was taken this morning (you can see the new one in my stories), but this whole 10x10 is about being comfortable because most days I’m at home with two tornadoes. I mean toddlers. Same thing. #winter10x10 #10x10friends #cdnblogsquad #capsulewardrobe #

衣櫥只需 10 件單品就足夠?跟著簡約系博主的 10 X 10 穿搭法,回到基本款的懷抱
Tumblr media
明明衣櫥已經爆滿得關不上了,還是天天嚷著「沒有衣服穿」,買完好幾袋新衣回來又懊悔不已,這是你的日常寫照嗎?時尚網站 Style Bee 的創辦人 Lee Vosburgh 在 2015 年想出了「10 X 10」穿衣挑戰,鼓勵自己以 10 件單品配襯 10 天的打扮(帽子、絲巾、首飾等配件不限)。令人驚嘆的是,她的每套穿搭雖然保持平淡簡潔的風格,但依然在「10 件」的基礎上翻出新意,直至現在還一直地堅持著!
Tumblr media
雖然 Lee Vosburgh 是加拿大博主,但她的基本款穿搭卻流露出日系的風格,沒有繽紛的色彩,卻讓人覺得舒服耐看。在她的 #spring10x10 造型中,出鏡最多的就是這件 Elizabeth Suzann 的卡其色外套,雖然來來去去都是襯搭白色闊腿褲或黑色長褲,但可以看到她巧妙利用圍巾與腰帶,創造出不重覆的幾套穿搭。
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
至於她在冬天選擇的單品則偏明亮色調,米白色、淺灰和���色這些顏色本來就很百搭,因此可以輕易配出 10 套 #winter10x10 打扮。只要隨便將內搭或鞋子變換一下,或者背個不一樣的手袋,便已經可給人一點新鮮感。
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
在她的 Instagram 上從不會看到甚麼流行爆款,非常值得上班族參考。想要將基本款式混搭出時尚感,還有一個小秘訣:盡量購置耐穿的高質素衣物,久而久之你便會滿足於舒適的質感、永恆的款式,建立少而精的膠囊衣櫥,而不會再盲目地亂買!

As a longtime capsule wardrobe devotee, I thought I'd give the #winter10x10 a go! The concept is to pare your wardrobe down to ten items to wear over ten days, which, hopefully, inspires new creative wardrobe energy. For mine, I omitted coats because buffalo winters are wild! But here we have 3 tops, a jacket, a dress, 2 pairs of jeans, a skirt and two shoe options. I'm excited about this miniproject and will be documenting over the course of the next week. ☺️ (at Buffalo, New York)
