I think it depends on your circumstances. I work in a really cold environment right now and consequently own two or three really thick wooly jumpers that I can only wear with trousers. They are too chunky to wear with skirts or over dresses and look good. They are also way too thick to tuck into anything and not look super bulky and weird. But they literally save my life all the time because I’d be freezing without them. So relax, it’s all very personal to you, anyway.

As someone that got a minor in math that I never use, here goes: If you have 152 items of clothes, I'm gonna make it super easy and say you have 50 dresses/jumpsuits/single pieces (seems high but whatever), 52 tops, and 50 bottoms. You can either wear a single-piece outfit or one top and one bottom, so the options are: 50 one-piece 52 tops * 50 bottoms (assuming that every top goes with every bottom) which would be 50 + 52*50 = 2650 obviously every top does not go with every bottom, so if we're going with the idea that every top matches with on average 3 bottoms, then it would be 50 + 52 * 3 = 206, which would be repeating every outfit 1.77 times So there you go if anyone actually cares lol

@@geniej2378 I agree, I’ve always shopped like that. But then that’s not ‘capsule’. I think that terminology refers to packing the tiniest amount of items for the maximum combinations, so probably wouldn’t include a lot of dresses etc (which I lurve). When Lena mentioned seeing people online creating ‘capsules’ of 70+ pieces...that just seems like dilution of the point really.
@geniej2378 3 жыл бұрын
@@velmavlogs7693 For some people it is a capsule! If you were to buy the latest trends every year you end up with hundreds of pieces and because they're fast fashion, they start looking worn and don't go with this year's latest trends. Going from 300+ pieces down to 70 can be a capsule. It also highly depends if you count work out clothes, if you have a work wardrobe which doesn't overlap with your casual wardrobe, if you live with 1, 2 or 4 seasons of weather, etc..

That math problem threw me back to being very confused about choosing between combination vs permutation formulas lmao. For me (as probably for most people) it’s very easy to dress for casual, everyday stuff, but so much harder to find decent things to wear to events or special occasions. I’ve felt chronically underdressed so many times in the past few years - mainly because my boyfriend used to have lots of fancy work events to attend and I was his plus one. Maybe I just need a few go-to, versatile “event” outfits. Orrr maybe I just need to let go of the idea that I always have to wear something new and fresh bc honestly I bet nobody notices what I’m wearing at these events anyway. Rant over hahaha

I think you have to keep in mind SEASONS! 90% of my daily fashion choices involve some thinking about the weather. For example, out of my 5 pairs of trousers, two of them are perfect for colder weather (under 10 °C), and one of them can only been worn if its warm (over 25 °C). The other 2 are best with in-between temperatures. Still... I'm pretty sure I own less than 90 items of clothing, 151 sounds like A LOT to me.

so hereis my view as amaths student ofwhat Lena's idea was: one bottom and one top are an outfit. it doesn't matter if you choose the top first or the bottom first. each piece goes with two more pieces so if you have 152 pieces, and each of them goes with two more pieces, she says that would be152 options for first piece and 2 for second piece. but since blue skirt with yellow shirt is the same outfit as yellow shirt with blueskirt, you counted that combination twice, so we have to divide by half. since we counted every outfit twice

@Scarlet Baxter yes, this was definitely a simplistic view of it. here is my example: i have 1 black pants, one blue-gray, three brown, one of the is gray-brown. i have ten t-shirts, 9 of them go with the black pants, so that is 9 combos, two of them go with blue pants, so 11 combos, all of them go with brown pants, so 21 combo. then i have three skirts they all go with 8 t-shirts, so that is 24 combos. and this is not even counting tights, dresses nor leggings. also i did not count pullovers or cardigans. and without that i already have 21+24 = 45 combinations for one or two seasons. one season is approximately 90 days, so if i wear every of 45 combos twice i am covered for 45 days. with 3 pants, 10 t-shirts, and 3 skirts. I mean in the end, bottomline, i think that the message is (at least the point that i gathered) that we don't need that much clothes to begin with. i personally know i will not buy anything but outerwear or underwear for the next five yers - unless i gain over 10 inches in my circumference

I think it's easy to put a colorful wardrobe together if the colors are similar in some respect. For you, your colors are mostly quite saturated with a few darker tones, nothing pastel or grayish, so they play together nicely. It's also possible to do along other dimensions, for instance a monochrome collection that was all different shades of blue would look sweet, or a complementary scheme that was all purples and yellows... or something based on primaries (yellow, red, blue)... basically, color theory is the answer. It can be done!

I lost a fair portion of my clothes after a break up so have had to start relatively from scratch this year. Realising now that I probably do only have a capsule size wardrobe but that works great for me! Love having my few staples that I go back to over and over!

This was such a fun video! There's one thing that it seems no one talks about and that is having a capsule or small wardrobe. Not having a washer/dryer in-house. We'd have to go to the laundromat frequently if we wanted to have fewer clothes. And because we don't want to make the trip often to the laundromat we have a good amount of items, which by the end of a month we have worn all of. Especially socks. To want to look good, want to pare down, but not have a way of washing your clothes yourself on demand is a struggle.

Whenever I watch videos about capsule wardrobes I remember that because I moved abroad a while ago and gave away most of my clothes, I do have a capsule wardrobe. And it's definitely colorful.

This is like a version of "shop your stash" that i'm interested in doing, where you pull out something you already own (I was thinking of makeup, so an eyeshadow palette springs to mind) and conciously give it some use over a period of time instead of getting something new. Could be a pair of jeans that you keep out and wear a few times over the fortnight to give them some love rather than a whole wardrobe challenge. While hunting you might find some things to pass on to the charity shops if they aren't exciting without needing to actually declutter everything at once.

I loved this. I have never done a capsle wardrobe because all of the videos had such BORING clothes. Everything I own has patterns and bright colors. The capusle wardrobe videos were the opposite of that. I don't own traditional staple pieces because I know I'd never wear it. Leopard print is absolutely a base print.

Leena, I really enjoyed watching this as someone who is allergic to neutrals! Your outfits really cheered me up, and you've inspired me to do something similar - currently trying to wear everything in my wardrobe at least once, to really separate what I love from what I don't. Love love love this video!

There are so few people who are as passionate about colour and as disdainful towards neutrals as I am and this just makes me so happy!! I've been thinking about trying a capsule wardrobe as well and I think you've properly convinced me!! Can't wait to see you have more conversations about fashion

I love this idea. I mean it kind of makes sense. If you're only allowing yourself a few items (be it clothes, furniture, whatever), you want to get the "biggest bang for your buck". If you only have 30 clothing items, why not have every one make a statement?

On my year abroad at uni, I had a capsule wardrobe as I didn't want to cart more than one suitcase over with me, and I remember being really happy with what I had and getting rid of a couple of bits that I realised I didn't wear! Lately I've been channeling my feelings into buying sh*t I don't need but you've excited me to challenge myself and enjoy what I have!

Totally love your videos! 💕

Yes girl! This is literally been my side mission since fall of 2018. You can't take my color! You can't take my patterns! But I also can acknowledge that I had too my things in my wardrobe, even if I am the kind of person who experiments a lot. Also I think even when I was starting out, I didn't have a single item besides 1 pair of regular wash jeans that that would normally go in a capsule wardrobe. Thank you so much for making this. People who speak up for this kind of wardrobe are like little lighthouses encouraging me to get back to the shore.

I am excited to see that does not have to be the case and i can have both.

In my later years of college I had a big cage I hid my two pet rats in stowed away in my closet space, so I couldn't use it for clothing at all. 😂 During my junior and senior year I stuck religiously to project 333 rules and only kept 33 items of clothing and shoes with me at a time (except I let myself have all my jewelry because it all fit in a little folding case.) I had the added challenge of attending a few classes in which I was expected to dress professionally. So I had to have professional looking clothes that didn't wrinkle easily because they had to be folded away in drawers rather than being hung in my closet space. I still managed to keep a pair of leopard print skinny jeans and a pastel tie-dye top in the mix. And it all worked out fine. I honestly wish I had maintained the nerve to down-size more.
