I am wearing black turtleneck bodysuit, wide leg trousers, a navy blue striped blazer and blue Veja sneakers.

I am wearing a grey t-shirt, faux leather torusers, a blue velvet blazer, and Converse High Tops.

I am wearing a white oversized button down, Levis, Isabel Marant Patch boots, and a cropped bottle green blazer

I am wearing a blue cashmere sweater, wide leg trousers, a green faux fur coat, and blue Veja sneakers.

I am wearing a white oversized button up, wide leg trousers, Isable Marant Patch boots, and a vintage suede band style jacket.

Tick Tock, we are supposed to find out tonight or tomorrow whether we get the condo rental we applied for yesterday. If it all works out we will get it for March 1st.

Which means that we would have two months to slowly move from this apartment to the next since we have to give 60 days notice in our current unit.

And I am not counting my chickens before they are hatched and giving the notice right now.

Okay…so we went to look at two more condos today. They were both nice, but one was bigger and one was nicer. We quickly applied for the nicer one, only to be told that it rented before I even finished filling out the application.

That is how fast real estate moves here :/

I was getting excited and mentally planning out where I was going to put stuff.

This spring capsule wardrobe embraces the colour pink, so if pink isn’t for you then this won’t be an ultimate spring capsule wardrobe.

Just substitute the pink for a colour you like and build your capsule around that.

Today the weather was cold, but the sun was brightly shining. and there was an actual warmth to the wind which reminded me of when spring is starting to come.

A woman is wearing a slip dress over joggers, with an Anine Bing sweatshirt, and Converse

A woman is wearing an oversized cable knit sweater, joggers, Sorel boots, and a down puffer jacket

A woman is wearing an oversized white button down, with wide leg joggers, and Vejas

Ignore the disaster that is my background :/ So much crap, so little room. While I miss Value Village because it is not open at the moment, I don’t miss the amount of home decor and miscellaneous yet awesome pieces we buy that we don’t have room for.

Speaking of not having room, we went to look at another condo today.

Same building but 10 floors up from ours, on the opposite side of the building, so a much better view.

Last week was the dishwasher (which is still leaking and not fixed) and this week was the car. This one is so obnoxious that it’s almost laughable.

A few weeks ago Tom left on a Monday morning to got to work.

He called me as soon as he got out of the garage (no cell reception down there) and said the car was making horrible sounds.

Neutral Capsule Wardrobe

How to Build a Neutral Spring Capsule Wardrobe

It is really hard to get into the mindset of spring capsule wardrobes right now when it was really cold AF outside. I really wanted to wear a dress today so I ended up with jogging pants layered underneath.

That’s the way that it goes when you live in a really cold climate.

At the start of quaratine last year…was it really almost a year ago? It’s crazy.
