Why I've Quit My Capsule Wardrobe

For such a long time, I was convinced that a capsule wardrobe would save me so much time and money. I think it does for many people. For years, I weeded my clothing down to just 25 items or so every spring, summer, fall, and winter. I felt a lot of pride looking into my bare closet. I felt like I had such control and so many options.

The thing is, I grew tried of constantly giving so much attention to my clothes. I work from home, after all, and sometimes I just stay in my lounge outfits all day. That's a luxury I know not everyone has. But in my life -- right now -- it doesn't make sense. One day, it dawned on me. What I really needed to do was to stop buying clothing altogether. That's the root issue here. After all, when I was searching to create a perfect capsule for any given season -- I'd inevitably find gaps. And I'd need to fill those gaps with almost a laser focus.

So, I've stopped doing that.

What have I done instead? Well, being pregnant twice in recent history has been tricky when it comes to clothing. I can't give a full tutorial on best practices if your body isn't constantly changing. I have several pairs of maternity jeans and shorts and flowy shirts. I've been sticking to those. I did buy a few new pieces with this last pregnancy, but they're just undershirts that I wear under things I already have. And jeans. I had to size up my jeans from previous pregnancies. No shame.

When I haven't been pregnant, I've tried collecting pieces (and now simply holding onto pieces) I can see working no matter the season and no matter my age. For me, and as most of you know, this means a lot of FLAX.


I don't have the money to spend on new FLAX or many of the second-hand linen pieces you'll see circulating eBay or Etsy. (The dress/tunic above is literally the ONLY thing I have ever bought full price and new.) In fact, I'm sort of disgusted by how high the markups are. More power to the people who are reaping the rewards -- but I find most of my linen for between $5 and $25 at various thrift stores and consignment shops locally. I don't need to spend $200+ on a piece of similar value.

End rant. Where was I? 

OK. For me, I like linen. Even in the winter months, I layer it with some cotton basics and pair with jeans. It works for me and my casual, work-from-home lifestyle. I've liked the way this style has looked since I was a teenager and went to my first Angelheart Barn Sale. It's meant to be loose-fitting. This means it accommodates my body as it changes. I'm able to wear the same sizes even when I weigh totally different weights, have different shapes, etc.

It's definitely not for everyone, which I have learned when I've polled readers on different looks on my Instagram. But I'm cool with that. I've never really dressed for what's stylish in the moment. The fact that FLAX clothing has been around as long as I have shows me that it will weather trends, even if it goes out of its current rise in popularity.

Right now I have all my clothing for all seasons in my closet. I have probably 60-70 things. I haven't counted, but I just know how much fits in there. Where I'm focusing my efforts on simplicity is getting rid of stuff that I haven't worn in a long while (mostly as I see them, not as a big organizing task) and not really buying more unless I find it on the cheap or it brings me joy. Because while I have stopped shopping mindlessly and regularly for clothing, if I find something I really like -- and it's $7? It may be worth it. So long as I don't do it all the time.

I realize this post may not be helpful to many of you. But I'm sick of trying to cultivate a perfect minimalist or capsule wardrobe. I'm sick of it being a THING online. And I was totally trying to make it a thing, too. It's exhilarating in a way, right? BUT it wasn't s.i.m.p.l.e for me in practice. (Which is the core of my new definition of simplification.) This new system is. And I find that I don't really have too much laundry of my own to contend with. I often wear the same things week after week . . . but at least this way I have more options.

I'm not a style icon.
I'm not a fashion blogger.
I just don't care THAT much.

My kids clothing, on the other hand, is another story entirely.

And I'll get to that later this week!

Frugal Accomplishments // Buy Nothing New

At the start of the new year, I did set a quiet goal for myself to buy as few new things as possible. I say "Buy Nothing New" . . . and I know full well I'll end up buying new things. For example, despite attempts to find a second-hand ninja uniform for Ada's new gymnastics class, I ended up having to buy new. Stuff like that happens, and I think it's easy to get dragged down.

So, my approach is to just shop less and to frequent thrift shops or online establishments that allow me to live my best second-hand life. I've mentioned before that the bulk of my wardrobe is made of used clothing. Specifically, I'm fond of old FLAX that dates back even to the 1990s. I can't wait to pull those pieces out again in the spring. We just got another 8 inches of snow, so it'll still be a little while.

Regardless, here is a list of things I've purchased/received second-hand recently:

• Woven baby wrap (long story, I had sold my Didymos)
• Size 8 LL Bean winter coat for Ada 
• Size 10 Lands End winter coat for Ada
• Several pairs of Stride Rite shoes for Eloise
• Two gently used stainless steel fry-pans from my in-laws
• A well loved, but still great wok from my in-laws
• Toy vacuum cleaner for Eloise

This list isn't exhaustive. I simply can't remember where I left off sharing in my thrifting adventures. In general, I try my best to only buy used clothing for myself and the girls. Stephen doesn't seem to have as much luck finding sizes that work for him. He's a 29/32 pant, for example, and that is hard to come by at the thrift store. But I've found over the years I can get about 90 percent of our clothes used. I don't do underclothing, like underwear, bras, socks, etc. That's all new.

When it comes to anything baby/toddler gear or toys, I do try my best to either just say NO to needing more stuff. But if there is something I need or would make life easier, I head to Once Upon a Child, Thrifty Shopper, or Poshmark. I do browse around a babywearing buy/sell/trade group on Facebook, but I'm astounded at the prices. I'm not into the expensive stuff, though they sure are pretty!

For me, I suppose this goal is also more about not shopping as much. And when I feel the need to shop, trying to find something sturdy and inexpensive via thrift. And if that doesn't work, I try to live without whatever it is a bit longer. And if all else fails, I end up buying new.

What's your shopping philosophy? Do you want more updates like these? I'm thinking that sometime it might be fun for me to do a video of visiting the second-hand store with me. Or a photo post. Something to take you along for the ride! Let me know if that sounds interesting to you.

My Large Thrifting Haul + Cost

So, changing gears from clearing all clutter out of my house . . . I had a very productive thrifting trip last weekend. I only visited two stores for these items. The first is the second-hand shop that's a mile from my house. The second is the children's thrift shop across town.

Total amount spent: $86, which -- admittedly -- sounds like a lot. But stay with me!

The mission: Ada's stretching to the max in her size 6 clothing lately, so I am slowly collecting sizes 7/8. Eloise needed some cold weather stuff and a few basics, since Ada and Eloise were born in different seasons.

Anyway, here's what I bought for each family member.

For Ada:

• Matilda Jane Top NWOT ($6)
• Lands End Rocket Sweatshirt ($4)
• Johnnie b Boden boatneck ($1)
• Garnet Hill Kids fleece ($4)
• Johnnie b Boden dress ($4)
• Children's Place jeans ($3)
• Dr. Martens boots ($10)
• Minnetonka moccasins ($5)
• Hanna Andersson dress NWOT -- not pictured ($3)

TOTAL: $40

For Eloise:

• Hanna Andersson fleece ($4)
• Hanna Andersson pants ($1)
• Okie Dokie shirt ($2)
• Unlabeled wool pants ($2)
• Wool polka-dot jacket NWT ($4)
• Saint James boatneck ($2)

TOTAL: $15

Also for Eloise:

• Patagonia lightweight snowsuit/bunting ($14 -- half off, so $7)
• Stonz booties NWT ($14 -- half off, so $7)

TOTAL: $14 (and these will fit next year, too -- and the snowsuit might stretch to age 3)

For Stephen:

L.L. Bean fleece shirt NWOT ($5)

TOTAL: $5

For Ashley:

• Patagonia zip layer ($6)
• Nike Dri-Fit Fleece ($6)

TOTAL: $12

Smart + Thrifty Tips for Buying Second-Hand Clothing

So many of you have messaged me privately about my second-hand shopping escapades. It’s really one of my biggest hobbies. There’s definitely a method to my madness. One of my favorite bloggers -- Jessica over at What I Wore -- recently shared her own tips for shopping thrift, garage sales, etc. You should definitely check those out.

Here’s how I approach things, at least when it comes to clothing. I have a host of other tips for household and other items.

Make the rounds

A lot of people tell me they aren’t able to find good stuff at their local shops. And for some of you, that may be an ongoing issue, I understand. But for others -- don’t give up with just one visit! Consider that these places get new stock from time to time. How often will certainly depend on the shop, so it’s a good idea to ask the sales associates how often new stuff comes in.

I find that if I try to hit up all my local places in a rotation about every two weeks, I am able to see a wealth of goodies. Of course, I still see that crazy cat embroidered vest at Good Will even a month down the line, but many other awesome things have filtered into the aisles as well.

I also have discovered that where you go matters. We live in a large-ish area with many different pockets of age brackets, income levels, etc. While I have found good things at most stores . . . I tend to more heavily hit certain areas where I find the demographic more closely matches my own. Well, and also where middle-aged women who like FLAX clothing live.

Know your style

I know what I’m looking for. Usually natural fibers. Linen, mostly. FLAX the brand specifically (here are my 5 favorite FLAX outfits for summer). If you have a tried-and-true brand or fabric or cut or item you like, look for it specifically and try to forget the rest. In my own experience, I have picked up things that I would have never purchased simply because I thought it looked kinda sorta neat. Then? I never put it on because, well, it’s just not my style.

You may find it helpful to write down a list of things you like. Or things you need. But try to avoid getting random stuff that appeals to you based on price alone. I went through this period of time when I thought maybe I’d like to wear corduroy jumpers simply because I was finding a lot of them and they were cheap. Nope.

Oh, and while you’re at it, don’t hoard things just because they are what you’re “looking” for. Again, I LOVE FLAX . . . but I don’t need a lime green FLAX vest or something that doesn’t match my style.

Know your size

I really, really don’t recommend trying on thrift store clothing. Even while shopping at a “nice” store, I contracted scabies when I was in my early twenties. It’s helpful to know your size in different brands or simply by looking at the item. You may even want to bring a measuring tape with you to help. I tend to wear things big or in a freer size, so usually I’m pretty good if something is a tad too big on me.

Instead of trying on, I tie my bag tightly after leaving the store and immediately throw it in the wash when I get home. I dry in the dryer as well -- anything to help kill weird stuff that might be on there. I am usually just fine with sizing because I’m a ninja at this stuff. BUT I’m not immune to mistakes. So, that all said, if you do end up getting something home that just won’t work after washing, you may also try to re-sell it or donate it again if it only set you back a couple dollars.

Oh, and I would recommend checking all sizes. Some things are either in the wrong section (misplaced) or -- at least with vintage clothing -- sizes have changed over time. I wear anywhere between a 2 and 8 in different modern brands. With vintage, I can wear up to a 12!

Scan and keep moving

This goes with knowing what you want -- keep moving! If I stop too long to consider something, the chances are that I’m more convincing myself that it’s a good deal or whatever. If I see something that I immediately love, I grab it and move onto the next item. Oh, and if you’re curious . . . I seriously go item by item when I shop. Since I know that I mostly like linen, it’s pretty easy to scan for this fabric among all the other things in the store.

And any seasoned second-hand shopper will tell you to inspect your items well before purchasing. You will find stains, holes, tears, and other reasons why these things may have ended up in the shop. If it’s something you can fix, great. If not, put it back.

Or  . . .

Ask for deals

If I find anything wrong that I think I can fix, I ask for a discount. Some stores offer while others aren’t as willing. Don’t go overboard. But, for example, I found a linen dress once that looked like it had simply fallen on the ground and got some dirt/dust on it that would clearly come out in the wash. Still, I said “gee, I love this . . . but I sure hope this stain comes out . . . would you take off anything?” And they took off 20 percent with no issues.

If something has an issue I’m not as confident about resolving and they won’t take anything off, I walk away. Sometimes after saying never mind, they’ll take off more and other times, not. It’s all part of the game.

Remember -- you can (often) return

At the same time, check out your store’s return policies. If you do bring something home and don’t like it or find it has issues, you’ll want to return if you can. Some shops only offer in-store credit while others will give you your cash back. Some store do not offer any type of return policy. This is, again, where checking items carefully comes in to play. I’ve been burned a few times. I have mended a few things . . . but others were beyond help or my abilities.

Consider modification

There have been times I’ve found dresses or pants and I love the cut + fabric, etc. But not the color. You can actually change that, you know. RIT dye is extremely useful in these cases + easy to use. Jessica recently darkened the color of a cool pair of leather boots she found. And there’s a blogger called ReFashionista who buys second-hand clothing that some find hideous and transforms it into hip, ultra-wearable pieces through her sewing skills.

Look beyond what’s in front of you to see what it could be. But don’t go too crazy or elaborate. I find that quick fixes or changes work best for my skill set.

Don’t forget shoes

I shunned the shoe section at thrift shops for years because the idea of wearing other people’s shoes creeped me out. Here’s the thing . . . some of the shoes you will find are either like-new or entirely new. It always astounds me. For example, I found a like-new pair of FRYE boots (similar to these that go for HUNDREDS!) this weekend. I also found a brand new pair of Eileen Fisher espadrilles (just like these that are currently in stores for $135+).

Don’t forget to check the shoes. Period.

Mind the calendar

Most thrift shops in my area have sales throughout the year. This weekend the thrifty shopper up the road had 50 percent off everything for just one day. I think they do it twice a year. Ask your associates if there are any planned sales. Many stores also have tag sales where, say, purple tags are 30 percent off or blue are 50 percent off. This usually means that whatever the item is has been sitting on the shelves longer than other items.

Again: Inspect your loot carefully for damage . . . but otherwise celebrate finding a super deal!

Go alone, if you can

I try to shop thrift on my own. I find when I bring the kids that they get terribly bored. I am also much (MUCH!) faster without them. So, I try to join my thrifting trips with my grocery shopping, which I also try to do alone as much as possible. If I’m scanning and moving on, I find I can go through a whole store in like 15-20 minutes. That means I could hit up three in the span of an hour.

For me, this is great entertainment and exhilarating deal-finding, but I totally understand if this isn’t your idea of fun that you might want to spend your solo time doing other things . . . NOT. :)

Frugal Accomplishments // 1

I’ve run into many accounts of “frugal accomplishments” by different bloggers. I always enjoy reading what other families are doing to save money and avoid consumption. And I thought I might like to start making my own lists on this space from time to time. I’ll try to keep them to just five bullet items. Maybe these things will help inspire you like they do for me. It’s always nice to get a nudge in the frugal direction, especially if you find yourself struggling.

There are always areas to improve upon, right?

#1: Added to our homemade pantry

We’ve been beefing up our homemade pantry with more goods we’ve made from CSA ingredients and otherwise. This weekend, Stephen and I both made a batch of jarred jalapeños and some pickled zucchini noodles. Both seem to be tasty so far, and they should last in the fridge for a good month (though we’ll surely eat them before this date!). For the brine, we followed the directions on this recipe. All the produce came from our CSA, though we should have a good showing of zucchinis in our backyard garden soon enough.

Along with these foods, I have started testing out recipes for a sandwich bread I hope to replace store-bought bread with. My first two attempts were tasty, but not quite the right texture. Stay tuned on that one. Stephen has also started up his yearly batch of pickles. He’s also brewing more kombucha. And while we’re at it and thinking of bread, I should probably try to get another sourdough starter going. I cannot seem to keep it alive long enough. Any tips on that?

#2: Started back-to-school shopping

I have made my rounds at the local thrift shops to start Ada’s school wardrobe for this fall. I cannot believe it’s almost time for classes to start back up! Anyway, I was lucky enough to find a lot (4) of Hanna Andersson dresses for $2.99 each in her size (well, the one that she’s currently growing into). I ask found a like-new pair of Hanna Andersson clogs for $8 at Once Upon a Child, where I had a 15% off coupon, making the total $6.80! Ada actually has quite a good number of clothes that stuff fit her well from last year, so we’ll resist buying new and go with what we have.

Side note: I really like Hanna Andersson because these clothes hold up very well. Ada has many more dresses in other sizes that should be in near-perfect condition for Eloise when she’s bigger. Gotta love being a girl-mom. Hand-me-downs!

#3: Scouted out a new thrift shop

Along with my school clothes shopping, I also found a new second-hand store that’s less than a mile from my house. It isn’t in the most desirable location, but everything in the store is $2 or less. I pawed my way through everything and was able to find a couple like-new Cat + Jack pieces for Ada’s school wardrobe. I also found a tank + cardigan set -- a SET -- of FLAX (here’s why I love FLAX) for $2! So, that means each piece was just $1. It’s my new favorite thrift spot based on price alone. Can’t beat it.

I’ll be adding this place to my regular rotation, though I don’t think it has as many treasures as my beloved Thrifty Shopper up the road.

#4: Visited the library

I always have the best intentions to check out materials from the library versus buying them on-demand. So, I set out in August with a new intention to think ahead and really use my library card versus ordering books for instant gratification. The library can be such a treasure trove for free entertainment, especially in the colder months. I have a hold on Ariel Levy’s memoir The Rules Do Not Apply. I also need to head back to examine some of the local calendars for different classes/groups that meet there.

I’ll be returning at the end of the month to sign up Eloise for the September story hour group that meets once a week.

#5: Found a new playground 

File this one under free entertainment. We spend a lot of time in our own backyard. But Eloise doesn’t have a lot of age-appropriate toys to ram around on now that’s she’s in full toddler mode. When I was out for my long run this week (8 miles -- yahoo!), I happened to do a lap around a nearby elementary school. To my pleasure, there was a small playground in the back for younger children with all sorts of toddler toys scattered about. We headed there last night with Eloise and Ada to play, and it’s basically the perfect setup. Ada is a fan of monkey bars these days, so she had at it on those. Eloise crawled around in the tunnels, play house, and went down the tiny slide. We even found some of those painted rocks everyone has been talking about.

I will be relying more and more on free places to go and things to do as cross country season heats up. What kind of places do you like to take your little ones for some free things to do?

5 FLAX Outfits // Summer Edition

This week is speeding by! I didn’t want another one to pass before I shared my flax outfits with you. This isn’t my entire wardrobe I was promising, but I figure I’ll get something up instead of nothing. Sound like a deal? Deal! If you haven’t read my last post, go check out why I mostly buy second-hand clothing and why I love FLAX.

So, I feel like I had these preconceived notions of the kind of woman who typically wears FLAX. To me, it always looked like something a funky 50-year-old woman would wear for business casual. Too boxy upon too boxy with like a jacket as the cherry on top or something. I try my best not to dress like that. But sometimes I like to rock a head-to-toe linen look, and I think it comes off alright.

Here are two examples:

Thing is, though, I often shy from FLAX on FLAX. Well, maybe that’s not true. It’s just that I love pairing linen with jeans. My beloved jeans! Here’s one of my all-time favorite outfits. I go to it for anything from a trip to the farmers market to an evening out. Yes. My evenings out are extremely casual, and I like them that way.


To me, it looks a bit artsy. Almost like I’m wearing some apron-smock thing. Below is a look I rock mostly at home. Leggings with an oversized button-down for butt cover. This is a great outfit for looking semi-put together . . . but also not caring if I get food all over myself. At the same time, I wouldn’t hesitate going to Target in this getup.


This last outfit is something I actually haven’t worn much. I had wanted to show you another outfit, but the shirt is in the wash (baby food and yogurt stains!). Anyway, I hadn’t had FLAX pants in my collection until recently. I have a few pairs of shorts. The pants feel difficult to style for some reason, but I actually wore mostly linen pants in college. A comfy t-shirt is always a win. I can’t resist tying the shirt. That’s something I haven’t been able to shake since my LuLaRoe obsession.


So, that’s how I style my FLAX for summer. I’ll try to get up a post that shows you each piece in my 30-item closet. Most of it is linen. I have a few t-shirts and several pairs of jeans. Why thirty? No reason, really. I don’t set a limit on myself, but I like to keep it relatively small. I wouldn’t call it a capsule. It’s just easy to manage when there are fewer items. Less laundry, and the like.

What look do you think is best? My favorite is still number 3!

FLAX + Why I Mostly Shop Second-Hand Clothing

Why I mostly buy second hand

I could go on for days about the reasons I like to shop at thrift stores and other reuse shops for my clothing. Some reasons are obvious. Others maybe no so much. I had many other posts on this topic on my other blog Writing Chapter Three, so maybe I’ll try to re-post them here someday soon.

Here are my top three reasons of the moment.

I buy second hand because . . .

• The clothing is far cheaper than the stuff you’ll find in retail stores. I’d say I generally spend between $4 and $20 on each piece of clothing that comes into my closet. The average price is around $10 to $15. But even that sounds a bit high. It just depends on the store and the item I’m purchasing.
• The clothing is better quality than I could otherwise afford. If I were to go to a FLAX store (my favorite brand) and buy a new piece, it would run me between $40 and $100 per item. I don’t have that kind of money hanging around. But, I can find something old + in great condition (because quality!) and give it new life for a fraction of the price.
• I feel shopping this way is more ethical. I am in no way getting on a high horse here (uh, LuLaRoe?). But I am learning and trying to do better with my buying practices. I am trying better to avoid fast fashion and its many issues, save clothing from landfills, reuse perfectly good items, etc.

Where do I buy?

Here are the places I regularly shop. By regular, I mean that I visit all my local shops about once a month in a rotation. I try to hit the days when they’re having 50 percent off sales or similar promotions.

The stores include:

• Good Will, two locations in my area
• Thrifty Shopper, two locations in my area
• Salvation Army, two locations in my area
• Trader K (if you’re local, it’s in Ithaca)
• Misc. other local thrift

I also shop second hand online:

• Ebay
• Poshmark*
• ThredUp
• Mercari

* You can earn $5 to spend when you sign up with code NYRLS!

I have a modest monthly clothing allowance set up for each family member in the budget. While I don’t always NEED new clothes, sometimes I see a piece I really like, and it’s worth the $5 to add it and maybe purge something else from my wardrobe.

The same goes for the girls. I do a mix of new and previously loved clothing for them. I find that onesies, for example, are often better bought new. They may even be cheaper on clearance. The stuff I can find on thrift for kids is usually in awesome condition. But the girls’ clothing is a topic for another day.

What do I buy?

These days, I primarily seek out FLAX clothing for myself. If you’re unfamiliar, FLAX is a line of generously cut linen duds that started in 1995 with Jeanne Engelhart in Ithaca, NY. I don’t know the whole history, but I started shopping FLAX in 1999 when I attended a barn sale with my boyfriend’s mother when I was in high school. It was my introduction to natural fibers in clothing, and I saw this way of dressing as funky and sort of strange . . . but it did inform many of my college wardrobe choices.

Fast forward many years and many personal styles, I returned to flax after I found a piece randomly at our local Thrifty Shopper. It was a dress for $8, and I wear it all the time. After that, I started slowly chipping away at buying pieces I could find for under $15. If you hunt FLAX like I do, you know this is no easy feat. Especially now with the popularity of linen clothing, people are definitely marking things up, which I get. But they are marking them up to a grossly high premium.

For example, there’s a FLAX jumper I love on Ebay right now, and the semi-local store owner has several similar pieces. She’s charging $225 . . . for each . . . and I believe she’s earning that amount, too. More power to her, but boo to those of us frugal FLAX lovers. I’m pretty sure we shop at some of the same thrift shops, and I know the markup is ridiculous. But, I digress.

I have been limiting myself to primarily buying these linen items for a few reasons. First, many of them are from the 1990s and look fantastic despite their age. This means they will last. Second, flax is a sustainable, natural fiber. It gets better with each wash, soft and breathable. Third, I like how the clothing is cut. It’s modest, but cute. It’s flowing and flattering. It also seems both timeless and age-less. I promise I’ll dedicate a post very soon to how I style my flax clothing.

My closet

So, I am sure you want to see what pieces I own. Right now I have a total of 30 items in my closet that make up my main wardrobe. It’s mostly flax and denim pieces. This 30-count does not include pajamas, underwear, socks, and activewear. I have decided I model some of my favorite outfits for you guys later this week.

Here’s a quick snapshot if you’re curious.


In my next post, I’ll give you a run down of each item in my closet (a few are missing here -- jeans, mostly). I’ll also show you my five favorite pieces that get the most wear. And I’ll give you some tips to hunt FLAX on your own. I actually get a lot of questions about this clothing on my Instagram, so this post isn’t totally random. I hope it helps!
