Spring Capsule Try-On Haul

March 2, 2020
Spring Capsule Wardrobe Try-On Session

Hey friends! It’s March & that means it’s almost Spring (even if it’s 30 degrees outside right now..boo) & that also means it’s time for a Spring Capsule! I’m launching the capsule for Spring 2020 next Monday! Until then, I’ll be sharing sneak peeks over on IG and on here šŸ˜‰ Today is a BIG sneak peek because I’m sharing my top 3 favorite items from 4 of the stores I shopped for the capsule. Ā Are you excited? I’m excited! Let’s do this thang…

Up first…

Madewell

Outfits 1 & 2

| Gray Sweater Tee |

Super easy to wear, so comfy, and ON SALE!

Sizing: Wearing a small & it fits oversized but I like it. Ā If you want a slimmer more cropped fit, size down.

| Camp Jacket |

Seriously, so good! This jacket was my favorite piece I tried on at Madewell (clearly! haha) & quite possibly for the entire Capsule! It’s so versatile & a classic piece that will not go out of style. The price tag is over $100 so I am saving up & buying this one next month!

Sizing: Fits TTS. Wearing a Small.

| Perfect Vintage Jean with frayed hem |

A classic fit with a fun twist with the added frayed hem!

Sizing: These are supposed to be ankle length but clearly hit below my ankle. Ā I’m 5’5″ for reference. I actually like the length on me but if you are looking for an ankle length jean I suggest ordering a Petite if you are my height or shorter. Also, I’m wearing my normal size at Madewell which is a 25, but I’m typically a 26 at other retailers.

| Floral Skirt |

I LOVE this skirt. Ā It has an elastic waistband so you just slip it on making it so comfortable! I paired it with so many other pieces in the try-on & I know I will wear this so many different ways! I also loved the pattern & color palette. Ā When you operate from a capsule closet, you have a lot of solids. Ā Have some fun with your capsule by adding a printed bottom to spice things up! I have a leopard skirt in a similar style & fit so I didn’t end up buying this skirt BUT I got home and I haven’t stopped thinking about this skirt so I am adding it to my shopping list for next month.

Sizing: Fits TTS. Wearing a small.

Ā | Mule |

These are the perfect neutral shoe for spring. You dress them up or down easily & they look great with anything from long jeans to a dress. I wore them the entire try-on session (which was wayyyy too long haha) and they were extremely comfortable. They fit TTS, wearing an 8.

Outfit 3

| Stripe Tee |

This tee is a slightly different variation on their classic whisper tees, with a rounded hemline & thicker stitching around the neck. Ā I liked this variation even more than the classic! These tees are such a great closet staple & last forever! They come in solids too.

Sizing: Fits TTS, wearing a small.

| Chambray Shirt – Short-sleeve version, Long-sleeve version |

A chambray button down is another closet staple & classic piece that won’t go out of style. Ā The options with it are endless! I recommend having a short sleeve & long sleeve version in your closet.

Sizing: Both fit TTS but slightly oversized, which is great for having more options like tying in a knot and giving you added length to layer more easily. Wearing a small.

| Camp Jacket |

| White Cropped Denim |

The straight leg fit is super flattering for a white jean & gives you a little more room which is a bonus in a white pant. Ā You could see the outline of the pockets in the front, but only slightly.

Sizing: Wearing a 25 (my normal Madewell size) but I’m typically a 26 everywhere else.

Old Navy

Outfit 1

| Denim Jacket |Ā 

Old Navy’s denim jackets are my all time favorite! I wear my light wash one all the time & it just gets better with age! This jacket is the exact same, but I sized up & went for a darker wash. Ā I wanted a darker wash denim jacket & the sone checked all of the boxes! And bonus: its crazy affordable!!

Sizing: Fits TTS. Ā I went up a size (M) Ā for an oversized fit.

| Long- Sleeve Button Down |

A total closet staple. Ā It’s easy to wear multiple ways for multiple seasons. Honestly, the fabric of this one feels way nicer than something from Old Navy. Ā I was very impressed! Comes in several other color options. PS It’s on MAJOR SALE under $13!

Sizing: Fits TTS. Ā I sized up for an oversized fit & added length.

| White Denim |

I have been on the hunt for a pair of white denim jeans that do not show the outline of the pockets – these were the answer to my endless search! They absolutely came home with me! These are also a mid-rise so if you are not a high rise fan, these would be a great option!

Sizing: Sized up one size. Wearing a 4. I always size up one size in white denim. Worth noting- Old Navy denim tends to stretch out so I will let y’all know if I wish I would have stuck with my normal size.

| Flats |

These were insanely comfy! They have an added cushion on the back of the heel to prevent blisters! They come in several colors, but I thought the coral color was fun to add a pop of color to a neutral palette.

Sizing: Fit TTS, wearing an 8.

Outfit 2

| Jumpsuit |

This is another favorite from the whole capsule! I love the fit & I have an endless amount of ideas for how to style this bad boy! It most definitely came home with me šŸ™‚

Sizing: Fits TTS, wearing a small. Height reference: I’m 5’5″ and it fit perfect in length.

| Block Heel Sandal |

I have these from last year & they are so comfortable! I can wear them for hours and I have never had a blister. They come in great neutral color options. These are a shoe staple IMO.

Sizing: Fit TTS, wearing 8.

Outfit 3

| Short-Sleeve Button Down |

I know I mentioned above, but a button down top is a great closet staple! I decided to add pops of leopard print in the capsule this year so I immediately grabbed this top. Ā I liked that it doesn’t have a collar, which is a slightly different variation to my other button down shirts.

Sizing: Fits TTS, wearing a small.

| Button Front Dress |

I love this dress as an alternative to a black maxi! The buttons are not functional, which stinks if you are nursing, but it’s great for not having to worry about the fabric popping open around the chest area! This is a thicker fabric, making it a great dress option for transitioning into Spring. Also comes in a really pretty pink color.

Sizing: Fits TTS, wearing a small. Ā I loved the fit of this dress. It’s very forgiving in the hips & midsection without looking frumpy!

Abercrombie & Fitch

Outfit 1

| Wrap Top |

This top has such pretty neutral palette options & is so flirty for Spring. I love this option for a date night, but didn’t include it in the capsule because it isn’t super versatile. Ā The would be a great option if you needed a few dressier or date night top options to round out your closet.

Sizing: Fits TTS, but it is cropped. Ā It would definitely show your stomach if you didn’t wear a high waisted bottom.

| High Rise Skinny Jeans |

I was on the hunt for a dark denim skinny jean & these were exactly what I was looking for! They are truly magic! I love how they are soft, slightly stretchy, and hold you in and up in alllll the right places!

Sizing: TTS, wearing a 26. They are slightly long on me, but I don’t mind cuffing them.

Outfit 2

| Jumpsuit |

Ahhh, just LOVE this! It fits exactly like my one from LOFT last year that I was obsessed with except it is a dressier material, yet it’s so soft & comfortable. Ā Also, it has pockets! Such. A. Winner.

Sizing: Fits TTS, wearing small.

Outfit 3

| Lace Tank |

The quality of this tank is amazing! It feels very thick & sturdy, yet the lace crochet softens it up and makes it a perfect layering tank for Spring. Ā It has a peplum fit, which is one of my most favorite fits for every figure. Ā It also comes in white & I’m thinking about getting it in both colors!

Sizing: Fits small, sized up to a Medium.

| White Destroyed Skinny Jeans |

I liked the idea of these & if you are on the hunt for a skinny pair with slight distressing these could work because they are very comfortable, they just show the pocket outline in the front. Ā That made these a no for me, but if that doesn’t bother you then these are a white denim option for the capsule!

Sizing: Sized up one to a 27.

Last but not least….

Target

Outfit 1

| Long Cardigan (notĀ available online yet) |

The color is perfect for pairing with everything in the capsule & it’s lightweight making it a great option in the Spring when it’s cooler in the morning and warmer in the afternoon. I tend to favor long line cardigans because they seem slightly more elevated in style compared to traditional cardigans.

Sizing: Fits TTS, wearing small.

| V Neck Tee |

This tee come in a zillion colors. The fabric is soft & for the $8 price tag – you can stock up on several color options if you want to.

Sizing: Runs TTS, maybe slightly small. I would recommend sizing up one if you are between sizes or want a looser & longer fit.

| High Rise Straight Ankle Denim |

I pulled these on a whim because they had a $22 price tag & I ended up loving them so much I bought them! They are really soft denim and I like the wider leg fit. It’s a silhouette I didn’t have & I’m excited to have fun styling them for the capsule!

Sizing: These are in juniors sizing so they run small. I recommend sizing up one, I’m wearing a 4. They are looser, but in a good way.

Outfit 2

| Tee Shirt Dress |

I bought last years version of this dress and wore it all of the time, so I knew I wanted to add one or two more tee shirt dresses to my rotation so when I saw this rose pink striped dress I was sold! I actually like the fit of this one even more than my dress last year. Needless to say, I’m sure you will see a to of this one around here!

Outfit 3

| Jumpsuit |

Want to know the best part about this jumpsuit, no bra necessary! Yaaaass! Oh and it has pockets. Oh and it’s under $30. Sooo… it’s kind of perfect if you ask me!

Sizing: Fits TTS. Ā I’m wearing the medium & it fit a little big. They didn’t have a small in store to try, but I would guess a small would have been a perfect fit.

| White Linen Blazer |

I have been on the hunt for an affordable white blazer for about two years now. Ā I wanted it to be longer, a true white, and a linen blend – this one checked all my boxes! A white blazer is such a staple whether you work in an office or live that stay at home mom life. Ā I know what you are thinking, white + kids isn’t a good combo, and yes, you are right! BUT here me out – it is a really good option to have instead of reaching for a denim jacket if you are going out without the kiddos. Also, variety is a good thing when adding layer options to a capsule wardrobe.

Sizing: Fits TTS, wearing small.

Whew… that was a long try-on haul, but I hope you would say it was a useful onel! I have tried on SO MANY things this past month for the try-on that I thought just highlighting my top 3 from my favorite stores would be much easier to digest. Ā Let me know your thoughts – Was this still too much?

Okay, I’ll see ya back here on Friday for the kick off my 10×10 challenge! Want to join me? Be sure to follow along with me on IG because I’ll be diving into all of the details over there this week!

Which outfit or store was your favorite from this try-on?
