march simple wardrobe

i'm glad i was able to inject a little bit of 'new' into my february wardrobe with two handmade linen tops.  i had already donated two items, so these fit in just fine with my 50 total items.  i am at the point where i have to remind myself that there good things about cold weather...hot tea, cozy blankets... and i'm out.  :)  climate change has given us a taste of things to come weather-wise...so i'm march-ing on.  wow- punny.  anyway...i almost did not wear my jumpsuit in february, but those last two days were warm...so i wore it two days in a row right at the end.

march's simple wardrobe has been a journey.  i ended up getting a bunch of my transitional clothing out and going through it... decided to let a few things go.  i'm (hopefully) channeling some creativity in this month's wardrobe...wearing a couple of things a bit differently.  the weather is forecast to be 10 degrees above normal for at least the first half of the month...so i think i'll be able to go without a sweater...and that will be new.  :)

the pieces:

tops:
white linen 
indigo check linen 
see-sun 
heavier stripe tee (doesn't layer under a sweater well)
cream stripe tee

pants:
vintage levis
skinny jeans
flare vintage levis (seeing if these will stick around)

one-pieces:
cream jumpsuit
denim/linen dress

sweaters:
grey cardigan
marl cardigan
tan cardigan

footwear:
toms
silver tennies
​tall boots??

what can i say?  it's march 8, so i've already been living in these pieces.  i wondered about just getting out a bunch of pieces this month and wearing what the weather called for with a bit more choice.  i decided against it, because then all of those pieces will have at least sight monotony.  i'm a broken record, but i like little changes and this method works for keeping a 'small' wardrobe fresh.

happy wardrobing however you choose to do it!  :)

love,
jane

I love how you check in and edit your wardrobe month by month! This is really inspirational - I am starting on a journey of curating my closet and was trying to use the Project 333 model of three months at a time, but the weather is changing quickly in spring that it is hard to pick the same small group of things to last across three whole months. I just went through and took a few wintery things out and added a few more spring things from storage back into the mix. Thanks for a wonderful and mindful blog - I have really enjoyed reading it!

i'm so glad there is something interesting here! it can be difficult to think ahead a whole three months and try to incorporate a variety of pieces for the weather into those 33 pieces. i know this might be a bit excessive for someone who wants to get away from focusing on their clothes too much, but it works for me and keeps things fresh. hope you have fun with your closet experiments! thank you so much for your comment! :)
