Are you starting a career as a teacher and looking to build your new work wardrobe, but are low on funds? I have a step by step guide on building a teacher capsule wardrobe in five easy steps.
This guide would also work for building any capsule wardrobe as well.
Today I am revisiting a post I made in July 2016 about building a simple teacher capsule from your closet in 5 steps.

On Wednesday day Merle and I got stuck in the rain badly. I knew it was going to rain but I thought I had timed it better.
We had some things to pick up at the mall and I figured we would get there and get home before it started, but we got sidetracked in Zara.
Isn’t that always the case?
I went to find her some leggings because they always have cute prints for 8-$10 a piece, and while we were there several things caught my eye that I will talk about later 😉
Anyway, I lost track of time and had to speed shop to get the things we actually came for and when we went out you could tell it had rained.
I thought maybe it passed and we were in the clear but as soon as we set out the sky opened up.
We hid in alcoves, doorways, and under trees in between downpours but were soaked anyway.
The bag for my new purchases got so wet they started to tear and I had to tuck them under all of my groceries which got drenched too. After we got back to the condo every surface had things draped or laying across it to dry.
It hasn’t rained in a long time and was crazy. The whole way home Merle was laughing like a maniac, she thought it was great.
Also on Wednesday I post a Plus Size Capsule Wardrobe for Fall.
The premise was a neutral wardrobe palette with lots of black, mostly pants, and a cool edgy vibe.
I hope I accomplished that, and so you can see what my vision was I put together a months worth of outfits from the pieces (which are located 15 at the top and 15 at the bottom).
I tried to show the versatility by pattern mixing and layering and there were many more outfits that I could have made but it was getting late when I was working on it and my concentration was fading.
This capsule will easily transition from fall, to winter, to springs, and even pieces in to summer (with a few seasonal changes here and there like a winter coat, a summery dress or skirt, and sandals).
It’s a very versatile capsule wardrobe, and although it leans towards casual, there are also options for dressier looks in there.
I noted in the original post that the pieces are very easy to replicate with items from your own wardrobe if you choose to use this as a guide.
I hope you can find some ideas from these pieces and if I inspire you to try a combination that you’ve never tried or something out of your comfort zone than I have succeeded in my intent. I hope you all have a great weekend. It’s Thanksgiving here this weekend and I have no idea what I’m making 🙂

I don’t just get requests for packing lists, I also get them for capsule wardrobe ideas. This week I have a fall plus size capsule wardrobe.
The requirements for the capsule wardrobe palette are black, grey, neutrals, black denim, leather, and military/modern for someone who predominantly wears pants and likes a little edgier look.

When I was 17 I read the book Outlander for the first time. Over the years I have read it many more, along with each and every book that followed in the series over the last 20+ years. When I heard they were making a television show out of it I was excited and scared. Too many times I have seen books ruined when put to tv or film and this is a series that could have been so easy to get wrong. They not only surpassed my expectations but seriously hit it out of the park. I think this is probably one of the best book to screen interpretations that I have seen, so I just wanted to say how excited I am that season 3 starts on Sunday. I have rewatched and am skimming/rereading the books in preparation. Is anyone else super stoked for Sunday?
I just had to get that out before continuing this post. Some like Game of Thrones but I prefer historical time travel 😉
On Wednesday I posted an interchangeable capsule wardrobe for when your work, and personal wardrobe are combined. It was requested with a specific style in mind; a “librarian who likes metal” with many pieces picked from both H&M and Zara which are her favourite places to shop. In this post I put together a month worth of outfits from the pieces in the original post. You can refer to the original to see all the pieces that were used to make these outfits but I will also give a general breakdown of what and/or why I chose them.
I have provided enough outfits to get through 30 days but really there are many more that could be made.
*the list is for a woman in Los Angeles so if you are from a city that experiences all four season then your jacket and shoe choices might include something a bit more hardy 😉
Now off to my Outlander countdown.
