My capsule wardrobe - Project 333

I'm finally taking the plunge. What you see above ( plus a black and a white tank top) is what I will be wearing for the next 3 months. 

Much more than many people around the world have and much less than I used to have.

You might be wondering why I do this. It's easy for me to answer. 

It's because I want to simplify my life.

 I still want to be well dressed and stylish but I want fewer  and better coordinated options.

 Plus I want less and better organised stuff in my closet.

What do I hope to achieve? The time I would normally spend around considering what to wear/shop I plan to invest in.....what? 

That's my goal. 

To be able to have a better idea of how I want to invest my free time by limiting the distruction from my clothes and the craving.

Let's take a look at my pieces

Black long sleevless dress Pink Woman    Stripped long sleevless dress Stradivarius 

Black A line dress Ioanna Kourbela

Upon looking, I should  have skipped buying the long black one!

Black lace waistcoat thrifted    Black loose cardigan/white strip    Short lace dress   both Pink Woman 

 My long dresses are very body conscious and I need sometimes a cover. Some other times I need to add an interesting layer.

I also have a black tank top which is not listed here and that's all. It can get so warm in Crete during summer so sleeveless tops are a must.
 All basic colors to act as a canvas for my accessories ( I will dedicate my next post to those).

I chose carefully my two bottom pieces. 

The black culotte is one of those pieces that I don't mind wearing everyday. 

It moves with me and makes me feel special. You will have the chance to see it when I will take outfit photos.

The long skirt is a vintage piece sewn from my godmother back in the 70s.

 

I'm getting pretty organised here and believe me I scare myself. Wishes for a great weekend!
