A Wannabe Minimalist's Spring Capsule Wardrobe 🌷 Project 333 | Thrifting & Simple Living | 2024

[@Chrissyhappy]

You made me smile.😊 I’ve finally got rid of my fantasy self clothes. The ones I want to wear to be feminine. I’m just not.😅. I’m always up ladders painting and doing diy. Knee deep in mud. Scrubbing the kitchen etc. Even on my days off. I’m more of a capri pants with a white t shirt and flats in the summer type. Boots and jeans in the winter. I’m finally able to accept that is me.😊

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

It’s one of those kinds of situations where you just have to learn to enjoy the idea of something and be ok with it not being a part of your life… like me and embroidery. 😂

[@elizaollett]

I absolutely love watching your capsule videos. I appreciate that you keep it real ! ❤❤❤

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

🥰 I appreciate you watching. Thank you!!

[@cantocant2346]

Your striped dress and cardigan are so good!

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

That dress was such a good find and the cardigan worked perfectly with it! I just need some warm weather! 😆

[@stephanieg2000]

That was a beautiful presentation of the final 33 items, very inspirational! Happy Easter! 🌻

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Thank you so much! Happy Easter to you as well! ☺️💕

I saw a orb fly behind you when you were talking about spring and summer.😊

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

At first I was like “what’s an Orb Fly?”. Like it’s a type of fly I’ve never heard of? 😅 I will say, an orb sounds much more interesting than the dust that was floating all around in the sun that day. 😊 Thank you for watching!! 💖

"This is just my favorite time of year to be overwhelmed." LoL The "bumpy & lumpy" artwork was great. Humor, inspiration, and culture all wrapped up into one video! :-) I really like the floral sneakers. Looks like you're all set for being put together this spring.

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Thank you for watching! 💕 It feels like it’s going to be a good Spring. 😁👍🏼

[@patricia_spv]

The green dress looks great on you!! Can’t wait for a video with a week of outfits like you did last fall ❤

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Thank you! I love it so much. I’m looking forward to that one as well! 😄 This is the best time of year for clothing. 🌷

GIRL!!! You have me laughing out loud as I get myself ready for my day 😂. I am SO GLAD you popped into my feed today! Here’s me hitting subscribe 😂

This comment started my day off on a great note. Thank you for watching and subscribing! 😊💕 Disclaimer: I'm not hilarious all the time. 🤣

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Thank you!! That laundry room video was just a big hit. 😅💕

[@aliciaa5894]

Bury me with my belly button covered💀 yes girl Just found you when looking for project 333 videos. You are so fun and relatable

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

I’m glad you enjoyed yourself. 😁 Thank you for watching! 😊💕

[@alishajennings2013]

I absolutely love that green striped dress with and without the cardigan. Also I like the green paint swatches behind your bed. Have you chose a color yet?

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Oh the swatches. They just feel like a permanent abstract art piece at this point. 🤣 I haven’t picked a color yet. 😭 I love the idea of green but I’m seeing so much of it lately that I feel like I have to do something different. So now I’m toying with the idea of a dark blue or even just doing a white wall with architectural elements and then I’ll never have to worry about matching the wall to anything. 😅 Decisions, decisions. 😭🫠

[@marybethmorrison]

“for fart’s sake”….I’ve just acquired my newest byline. Okay, don’t give up on the white stuff. Soak it for a day in a bucket of water with 1/4 cup of blue dawn and white vinegar (I just pour it in). Rinse it out well, launder as normal. Sometimes it takes a few times through, but I’ve had probably a 90% success rate on cotton, cotton-blend, linen (I don’t soak as long, maybe an hour at a time), and my BF’s favorite white golf shirt that he spilled red wine on.

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

I've had to get creative with my "bad words" lately now that the small one is starting to repeat EVERYTHING. 😳😅 Thank you for the laundry tip. I was thinking of having a bucket that I just keep filled in the laundry room to toss stained things in because I'm horrible at actually treating stains. It sounds like your method is tried and true especially if it saved that white shirt.

[@liliensommer9477]

Ah haha, I just absolutely love your humor🤣 Could listen to you all day long😄 And yeah, was so excited to see another capsule wardrobe video from you. They’re my favs - very inspiring and entertaining to watch🥳

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Awww! Thank you for watching!! 😭💕 If only we could have a few extra seasons in the year. 😅

[@liliensommer9477]

@@SimplifyingTheSatherns Lol, that would be great😅 Or maybe you could also make a 'What I wear in a week'-video? That could also be fun☺️ Greetings from Germany🤗💕

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Oh! I like that idea.

[@NicoleDelaney01]

You make me laugh with your humor…grapefruit and clementine 😂

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Class clown at your service. 😋

[@jkp62]

Your humor kills me! Thanks for sharing your capsule wardrobe change out.

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

😝 Thank you for joining me. 😁💕

[@cantocant2346]

Might be too personal to comment on but I wanted to tell you how happy I am that your breast issue resolved itself. As women we are so aware of our bodies and how our clothes fit. I feel like you have regained your body and that is powerful.

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Thank you. 😭💕 I feel very understood by your comment. It’s hard and weird going through something “normal” but feeling so abnormal. 🙃

[@alliemackey6410]

I looove your wardrobe videos!

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

I particularly enjoy them myself. 🙈 Thank you for watching! 💕

[@es20245]

Okay I just love this video. What's the headband you're wearing? It's super cute!

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Thank you for watching. 😁 This headband is one of the only Amazon purchases from my shopping addiction of 2018 that I still have. They really save a bad hair day. This isn’t the exact set I got.. but it’s from the same company and seems to be the same fabric . amzn.to/4cWzwsM

[@iriswelch3553]

It's hard to think spring when it's 46 one day 70 this weekend and low 50's next week (PNW) so right now the closet has two seasons hanging out! Your wardrobe does a good job of covering both!

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

We’re all just doing our best over here aren’t we? 😅 I was outside today bouncing back and forth between just a long sleeve shirt and then bundling up with 2 coats on top of that. 🙃

[@jennyjenkins877]

😂 Sounds like a fun experiment... I gave up on white clothing ages ago. I like your 'dye it to match the stain' trick though!

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Fingers crossed the stain compliments my skin tone. 🤣

[@wandrousvindella716]

I'm so relieved that "Clementine" got thru the pain and as a mom you got thru the season of breastfeeding.(as mom's we eventuallyforget the pain) I love your capsule wardrobe ,thriftiness & humor ~ "Nanna" Wanda

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

It was a long journey and I will look back on the majority of it fondly, but I’m glad it’s over. 😅🍊 Thank you for your kindness. 😊💕

[@sarapowers1462]

Loved this! Thank you for inspiration! love the colors you chose! Im withy you on the white clothes! my kids are 10 and 7 and I still feel like I stain them even when I go out without them lol

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Thank you watching!!! I’ll forever have a love/hate relationship with white. I don’t make spaghetti often, but I can guarantee there’s a 99.999% chance that I’ll end up making spaghetti on the day I decide to wear white. 🫠😅

[@LilaVert-FR]

I love the green dress on you ! And your capsule wardrobe is full of promises. I' m just a bit worried by the small amount of tee-shirts.

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

I was kind of thinking the same thing, but I think with the pull over sweaters, the rompers and dress I’ll be ok.. but also… we’ll see. 😅🤣 When the weather really starts to warm up, that will be the true test.

[@riverview9320]

What the heck - you look cute in overalls - so easy wardrobe emphasis there...😆

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

These overalls I found from Old Navy are the first overalls I’ve ever worn that don’t make me look like a toddler or my dad. 🤣

[@bonnytiley3998]

Loved that green dress on you! I'm currently working on my capsule and the weather is all over the place here too!

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

It was a great find! Good luck! These transition seasons are definitely the tricky ones. I guess we just get the best of both worlds though. 😊🤷🏻‍♀️

[@bonnytiley3998]

@SimplifyingTheSatherns ya! It's definitely unusual for us, we are usually already in summer weather at this time but I will take this weird weather over 120 degrees any day lol

[@angeladiehl6170]

I love the striped romper and green dress! Would you mind sharing the brands?! I have a wardrobe full of old dingy clothes. I want to try the 333 method, but want a couple new items to spruce it up.

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Both are from the Target brand Universal Thread. As long as the material is primarily cotton everything I’ve gotten from that brand has held up really well! Good luck on your 333 journey! ☺️💕

[@merrimcarthur7198]

GAH!!! Mastitis!....not to mention really big needles. Talk about miserable. Also, I love the outfit you're wearing during the mastitis story. It looks really cute on you. AND I love that first cardigan with the dress. Fed up brain!! Muaahhahahhahhahhaaa!! I just "switched closets". Time for the warm/hot season in Los Angeles. I can layer most of it whilst the weather is still a tad squiffy. See you in a couple weeks! My son and I are heading to Oklahoma and Texas for exploration and.. THE ECLIPSE!! 💖

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

It was a horrendous experience and the biggest needle I’d ever seen. 😅 I always imagine a cool weather wardrobe in LA is like what we wear in Spring here. I hope you guys have a wonderful time!!! And safe travels.💕💕💕☺️

[@rebeccareimer]

could you share overall sources? My pair are too deteriorated for public use anymore and i need a new set!

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

They’re the OG Straight Overalls from Old Navy. I’ve gotten 3 different colors over 2 years and the sizing and fit stayed consistent. I just looked online and they’re 50% off right now! They fit really nice and are holding up well! It’s a piece I’ve come to love so much I can’t help considering getting a backup pair for the future. 😅

[@davidpellessier6501]

Do you want to borrow my iron? Haha

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

I actually have one. We just only use it for Jackson’s crafts. 🤣

[@JoelleGrace]

Who woulda thought that i had a figure like Venus…😆 jk add some pounds to that….😂

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

That makes me imagine some kind internet quiz along the lines of "What is Your Greek Goddess Body Type? 😂

@@SimplifyingTheSatherns 😆I think people forget how “achem” “well endowed those women really were…🤭beauty standards change so much and it makes me laugh when people use classic muses to describe someone or something when they have no idea what the original was like… no judgement just humor for me..😁

[@SimplifyingTheSatherns]

Why can’t “well fed” be the “ideal” body type? 🤣
