We are currently in the middle of an extreme cold warning. You know it is cold when building management sends out a notice with warnings of how to avoid your pipes from freezing. That’s never good.

I haven’t left the house today, and probably won’t tomorrow because although I like the winter, this is cold too extreme for me to enjoy a walk.

I will say that having to wear a facemask definitely helps to keep the face warm, though. When paired with a beanie it’s like wearing a balaclava.

I have done quite a few stay at home mom capsule wardrobes over the years, and it wasn’t until this week that I realized something. It’s a big thing too and maybe because it is such an ingrained part of our lives that I never really thought about it, but I definitely should have.

One of the top messages I get is from mothers at various stages of their motherhood journey who have lost their sense of self when it comes to style and dressing.

I meant to post this on my usual Friday night, but you know when you start a task, and then it keeps rolling into another one? Then before you know it, you have lost a couple of hours.

Winter Capsule Wardrobe

A white background with 26 pieces for an edgy capsule wardrobe for winter laid out in rows.

Turtleneck | Button-up | Striped Shirt | Blouse | Sweatshirt | Black Sweater | Grey Sweater | Green Sweater | Blazer | Denim | Leather Pants | Trousers | Joggers | Dress | Green Coat | Tan Coat | Orange Earrings | Green Earrings | Sunglasses | Green Purse | Tote | Uggs | Heeled Boots | Chunky Boots | Loafers | Sneakers

Due to the grey weather blahs, I am feeling a little more colourful again this week with an Edgy capsule wardrobe. It is also making me want to dig deep into the depths of my wardrobe and pull out everything I have to inventory it, instead of just grabbing the easiest things at the front of the closet every day.
