October’s Capsule Wardrobe

I saw this funny meme yesterday that said:
“The lows of parenting are like ‘fourth sleepless night in a row’ and ‘kids ruined international vacation’ and the highs are like ‘billy caught a pop up fly at practice’ and ‘sherry agreed to wear socks today,’ but somehow those things balance out.”

It gave me a good laugh and I immediately hit the share button to send with my family and friends…. because, while it’s slightly exaggerated, it rings true over here.

Digressing from the topic a bit with the above, but now that it’s the beginning of October, it’s time for a new capsule. For those of us in Southern California, that means we’ve officially reached that time of the year where the mornings are chilly, but the afternoons are warm… so a sweatshirt and pants in the morning… but pants and a tank (or tee) by the afternoon. Given that, I’m hoping this capsule will cover most climates… some nice layers for fall combined with lighter-weight pieces if your climate is a bit more like mine. Similarly, like last month, if it’s warmer where you are and an outfit suggested has jeans in it, you can always swap it out for similar shorts… and the same with tops. You should also be able to add and remove layers as necessary.

Every piece has been seen before, with the exception of this olive green jogger + pullover combo (I’m finding myself gravitating towards this color for fall…). I’ve either brought pieces back from last year’s fall capsule (this cardigan, long sleeve shirt, oversized white button down, and flutter leggings) or reused pieces from last month’s (denim jacket, fisherman sweater, jeans, and the shirt jacket)… or they are items I’ve shared here before, just not in a capsule collection. I always like to note that you don’t have to own these exact pieces to create these outfits. Any similar items will work, and this collection can merely act as a guide. I’ll have styled outfits up likely early next week….

I hope you have a great day ahead!
