Thank you for watching!
Here are some more tips on how to adapt your wardrobe to your new lifestyle:
I always show you how to adapt your capsule wardrobe to your new life changes, and today I’d like to show you how I’ve transitioned my own to a more suitable summer capsule wardrobe.
This summer capsule wardrobe was very different for me. As you might know, I’ve moved to Lisbon, Portugal and I am very happy about it.
You can see a video on why I've decided on this big move here.
However, the hot weather here doesn't match the summer capsule wardrobe I had in Germany where it was suitable for the cold weather.
I will probably have to rely on my autumn capsule wardrobe, but there are some months left to adjust before the cold weather sets in.
So I will have to adjust my summer capsule wardrobe and all upcoming capsule wardrobes to a new climate and lifestyle in the upcoming seasons.
This blog post will show you how to adapt your capsule wardrobes to different lifestyle changes that you might encounter.
My personal capsule wardrobe should serve as an example.
The methods I will show you don't have to be applied just to a transition to hot weather.
They can be applied to your own changes and personal wardrobe.
How Can You Tell When It's Time to Update Your Capsule Wardrobe?
The weather here is very different from what I had in Germany. It’s warm, dry, and sunny every day in Lisbon, while in Germany it is rarely warm, mostly cloudy or rainy.
A big-city move like mine can be a good reason to update your capsule wardrobe. Cold weather changes can't be ignored either.
Another problem I often help my clients with is a change of jobs or a promotion.
You might have lost weight and your new capsule wardrobe needs adjusting.
Or you gained weight and you need to adjust your capsule wardrobe to a more comfortable level.
Entering motherhood is another big reason to start looking at updating your capsule wardrobe a bit. You need to make it more practical and comfortable for the years ahead, right?
No matter, what personal reasons you might have to update your capsule wardrobe there is always a way to start. And that is a wardrobe revision.
Capsule Wardrobe Revision Done Right.
I’d like to give you a few practical tips and advice I’ve shared with Farfetch on how to do wardrobe decluttering, organization, and off-season clothing storage.
They’ve worked for me, my Wonder Wardrobe students, and my clients for years. I’m sure you’ll find them useful.
I have seasonal capsules, I do wardrobe revisions, and only purchase clothes that go with everything else.
A clear sign that you should declutter your wardrobe is when you keep adding new items regularly, but still, wear less and less, or even go back to wearing the same old clothes you are used to.
What to Keep in Your Capsule Wardrobe
I would advise keeping clothes that make you feel happy, clothes that help self-expression, clothes that fit right, fabrics that do and feel good, clothes that allow mobility, clothes that make you forget you’re wearing them.
What to Let Go of in Your Capsule Wardrobe
The clothes you should pass for now for your current capsule wardrobe are those that don’t fit you and need adjusting every minute, clothes that guilt trip you into exercising, clothes that hide your ‘flaws’, clothes that ‘flatter’ your body type, clothes that are too tight to allow natural movement, clothes you can’t wait to take off as soon as you’re home.
It should come as no surprise that you should also get rid of garments that are broken, stained, too small, too outdated.
Also, you can let go of clothing or shoes that don't suit your lifestyle/ comfort level anymore or garments that you can’t wear anywhere.
If you do wardrobe revisions every season or at least 2 times per year you will not need to spend any time decluttering. Basically, it prevents clutter altogether.

Daria, you look so happy and healthy! Such a pleasure to wstch you in Lisbon! X x

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️

[@acmpmen]

This video was so fun to watch Daria! You seem lighter, happier! Thank you!

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thanks! So happy to hear that!

[@tatianakotova5475]

All your items are gorgeous! "Confidence booster" - exactly, I absolutely agree that cool clothes help us to feel better)

[@garlicgirl3149]

Yes, very useful and you and Alyssa B. always help me with the planning. I actually started implementing these past two years and find all the tips and tricks and self assessments so helpful.

[@seoullista]

Lisbon suits you perfectly Daria! All the best for this new chapter.

[@donamcleod5086]

Thanks for video. You are a wonderful presenter. This summer was my first capsule. I included too many items. However I am proud of my progress. I am excited for autumn capsule.

[@VanAlh]

That hairstyle is perfect for you.

[@InfiniteMindset99]

Yes, I enjoy you, your demeanor, & your videos! Tell us more about Lisbon & Portugal.🎉

[@MasterOfNone13]

I also moved to Lisbon from another EU country and have been here for over 3 years. From the footage of your last 2 videos, I have a feeling we live in the same neighbourhood, I can't believe it! :D

[@wonderwardrobe]

Haha everything is possible! If you see me, come say Hi 😁

[@milivanilili]

Thanks to you and your videos, I have started my colorful capsule wardrobe journey a year ago and don't think I will return to the old. Capsule wardrobe was one of these things that made me happy and made my life easier in these times of work overload and various other worries. I'm so glad to see you happy and shining :)

[@clairewiltshire8033]

My summer capsule wardrobe worked well this year because I bought more clothes to adapt to a couple heatwaves. Unfortunately those items (shorts & skirts) I can only wear for a few weeks in the English weather but I packed them away after the heat wave and treated them like a "holiday capsule" within my summer capsule basically. Now, I have less options but I don't mind too much because it's been varied. I like having 2 capsules in a season. Autumn in comparison is going to feel very long and boring ... I might add a few things to have more variety.

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thanks for sharing! Looks like you had a great time with your summer capsule. If you liked having 2 capsules in 1, try to do the same in Autumn. The first can be a transitional version for September where you can mix summer and autumn things, and the second one for October-November can be much cozier and warmer for those cloudy and rainy days 😉

[@tatianakotova5475]

я смотрю на планшете сони, старом + подключаю мини колонку. Вас смотрю на максимум громкости, чтобы не пропустить ничего. другие видео не делаю максимум громкости - все слышно. не скажу, что прям сильно тихий звук. может просто на контрасте с более громким звуком других видео- непривычно..

[@maryokeefe5351]

@@wonderwardrobe Good tips!

[@tatjanadavis8672]

I also got myself a "confidence booster" dress this year and loved it! A little more casual, but still chic for nice summer events, comfortable for my job, a cup of coffee in my favorite coffee shop and even practical enough for the playground! I also discovered that I actually prefer midi skirts to shorts - more versatile in the German summer :D they work perfectly during hot days, but also on a little bit cooler days with a sweater and maybe sneakers (love my Veja sneakers ;-) ) instead of sandals on hot days.

[@tinajoneswilliams4253]

Such a wonderful video. Best of luck in your new home. Xoxo

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thank you, Tina! I really appreciate your support! ❤️

[@ingwerkeks98]

Ahh Daria now I want to move to Lisbon as well 😅 Great to see you and the capsule is so colorful, it seems inspired by the sunshine in Portugal 🌞

[@daveyshouse1128]

So happy you moved to a sunny place!! It will make such a difference in your mood :-).

[@mattysmom1]

You look so happy and beautiful. I visited Lisbon and stayed in Alfama. It was lovely! My capsule consisted of many summer dresses. I only wore 1/3 of them on a regular basis. My shirts and shorts didn’t get much wear either. 🤷‍♀️

[@kooltom4]

Heading towards spring where I live, and Lisbon's climate is closer to my city than Düsseldorf was, so this will be a bonus for my own summer wardrobe options 😎. Will miss seeing your outings in Germany Daria, it seems to be a country with real commitment to minimising waste, and beautiful places to see as well. However, also looking forward to seeing more of daily life in Lisbon and your ideas for dressing for milder climate. Excited to see the future videos.

[@carlalfaroh]

I love that green dress! You look amazing ❤️

[@tiggertay]

2 tops I bought last year before all the lock downs started can finally debut as regular wear in my office now, but come next month I may have to switch back to a wfh lifestyle again... Also, I am still delaying on weeding out some old items to make space for their replacements, preferring to wait until my schedule stabilises. I believe changing your wardrobe slowly and after figuring out your new environment/lifestyle is the best way to go at it.

[@christinamanucy8037]

Your capsule is beautiful-the new pieces fit perfectly! I’ve noticed in my style journey that I don’t wear some of my older pieces as much as I feel I should, usually because they are made from synthetic fabrics and are less comfortable, or are less cohesive with everything else in my capsule.

[@wonderwardrobe]

Than consider selling them. There is no point forcing yourself wearing them.

[@amaefaciochevuoi2024]

Yours videos are always so interesting!

[@wonderwardrobe]

Oh thank you so much! I am so happy to hear that!

[@MsOrchidBouquet]

Very interesting! I love the bag you bought at the market and the brown dress. Such classy style. Can’t wait to see your capsule for the autumn.

[@jane1044]

So enjoy your style and presentation

[@olagerta8199]

It was so interesting to video! You showed so practical approach to life changes in capsule wardrobe. Now I can't wait to a next video about your next capsule :) I wish you good luck!

[@anneworks]

I'm happy for you! I moved to the countryside and still work in the city, but because I worked from home and everything was closed, I haven't adapted my wardrobe yet. I've been toying with the idea of a garden capsule, practical ánd nice, maybe loosely based on Landgirl and vintage style

[@anneworks]

@fg K thanks for your concern :) I'm buying some second hand already. I think sturdy corduroy or jeans, maybe dungarees would be lovely. If the fabric is old fashioned quality I'll be fine with most jobs. And I do use old clothes. But they're usually mended already.

[@TheNicoliyah]

Can I say, I just adore your style! You really know what colours suit you and always look pulled together but never boring. Hope that you are loving life in Lisbon x

[@tuchafontes3315]

Welcome to Lisboa !!! Beijinhos

[@maizena101]

My life has change since I decided not to work this year (starting un september, I’m a teacher) instead i’m going to be studing an online master so my wardrobe has to change. I am thinking on elasticated waist pants and confy sweters for fall

[@vassilikiyiannou728]

Perfect choices: the shorts!

[@stucumins8511]

You seem so happy and light in Lisbon and I’m loving the glimpses of the architecture there. You have nailed the summer capsule wardrobe……not that I expected anything less. 😀👍Deb

[@maryokeefe5351]

Lovely, Daria, you are absolutely glowing! I cannot live through summer without multiple white linen pieces, so I am a bit surprised that you did not embrace this enduring staple. When travelling in the Mediterranean area, nothing beats the heat like white linen dresses, tops and wide leg, beauty looks. Maybe next summer?

[@wonderwardrobe]

Half of my summer wardrobe is made of linen ☺️ I just don’t wear white, it makes me pale.

[@ellybea68]

What a lovely capsule! I love Lisbon. It’s so warm and sunny. One day we’ll get back there again! Have fun! (From Canberra, Australia & in lockdown.)

[@ramblerjam]

Loving the colours in your capsule!!

[@sonjadoeckinger4902]

Schön dass es dir gut geht - freue mich für dich wenn dein Plan aufgeht und auf neue Videos von dir

[@mariaflores4804]

Congratulations on your new journey🌟 The tan dress with the open back is gorgeous on you.

[@angelikabernady4978]

I love your summer capsule! You look beautiful!

[@ofelia7077]

You have the Lisbon glow, great video. So glad all is well :)

[@silvijaaleknaite4557]

I'm struggling with a capsule wardrobe because my current clothing doesn't match and it's super hard for me to decide what to buy next because I still haven't figured out my style. Also, I'm not big on shopping which makes it even harder. I hope creating a capsule wardrobe will get easier.

[@universeamor5332]

every item looks beautiful!

[@charlenehyle9700]

This is a great video for me right now! We are getting ready to travel to Portugal and I have already put together my travel capsule, and your video has helped me be comfortable with what I have. I can tell from your color scheme, and perhaps the styles that look so great on you that we perhaps have different body types and styles, but your concepts are right on, particularly when it comes to changing lifestyles. I spend half my time in Santa Fe, NM and half my time in Boston, MA - two very different lifestyles, and I still after 10 years am having trouble finding the right seasonal capsule items for Santa Fe. Your selections, I think, would suit my lifestyle in Santa Fe much better, so I am going to use you as my model and muse! Thank you!!

[@charlenehyle9700]

I am not sure what this has to do with my comment to you!!

[@ttenderrbuttonss]

You look glowing! no doubts You are happy :) thanks for great video

[@lolaaaaaaaable]

Normally I'm quite consistent with my capsule wardrobes, but this year is a bit different as I'm pregnant and a huge shift in clothing was necessary to accompany my new body shape. Normally I have bigger hips and a small waist, but now my belly is a lot bigger so most of my clothes were unsuitable.

[@wonderwardrobe]

I can imagine it might feel a little frustrating! But also exciting! New, beautiful changes are coming to your life and your wardrobe 😉

[@peterialex]

Great video as usual!

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thank you!!!! So happy you enjoyed it 😘

[@patriciapajares6185]

I'm traveling to Lisbon soon and I was wondering if you can recommend sustainable brands that I can purchase while in that city. Also I love thrifting. Any second stores I can go see?

[@jwashingmachine8307]

Commenting so I’ll also see 👀

[@wonderwardrobe]

Oh how nice! You can try The Feeting Room for a more creative design, and almost in front of it there's a vintage shop Pop closet. LX Factory has some affordable 🌿 brands and vintage. Principle Real area has lots of local, independent shops. And 2 more second-hand shops are Flamingos Vintage Kilo and A outra face da Lua - they are really close to each other, worth checking out! Enjoy your vacation!

[@FalleDuLogis]

Daria, you look beautiful and happy! You radiate excitement of the newness of moving to a new city and country !:) The video was very useful as usual, thank you! Can I ask you where is your black bag from? I need something exactly like that for my wardrobe and have been looking for a while, ordered some but wasn't satisfied with any and returned them all. Thank you!

[@wonderwardrobe]

Thanks! The bag is from walkwithmebrand.com

[@civantina]

You look soooo pretty!!!!!

[@alexandrinaduarte2367]

[@lalfanithiate2643]

Hi Daria, I absolutely love your new wardrobe. Just wanted to know what do you do with the clothes, shoes or bags that have been worn out or stained or doesn't fit anymore?

[@galinatitkova2255]

Thank you for the video! My wardrobe did't work well: too many items and lack of time to wear them all ((

[@sandramonte9936]

Very Beautiful. Where are the best places to buy clothes in Lisbon?

[@dakine4238]

How about capsules for tropical climates, how to split them up?

[@quacasualwomen]

is the green dress the one that used to be blue? shame.I really liked that style on you. and is the white one the dress you brought on your vacation to Spain

[@LaDecadent]

Hi! I love the idea of capsule wardrobe, but find it hard to apply to North California climate, most of the year the temperature is between +10C and +26C, and temperature change is not seasonal, it can change a lot throughout the week. I find myself using my spring,summer and autumn clothes all the time. Do you have any tips for this?

[@elisa4620]

Maybe consider a year-round capsule wardrobe instead of a seasonal one? And withing this you could have modules for various climates and/or events. Or, instead of a capsule wardrobe, you could opt for a curated, conscious wardrobe.

[@bridgetmcgrath3964]

👌❤️❤️❤️

[@mariadagloriasilva3495]

Daria, congratulations. Lisbon is a lovely city. Don’t say brooch ( broche in portuguese )in Portugal, it’s not a good word to use

It looks like you gained some weight because of the delicious food in Lisbon. But you look amazing, lively and happy. Just take some more walk and it will be fine. My summer capsule wardrobe wasn't going so well this year because of the heatwaves. There are some days the temperature is 40-41oC in my city. I bought some more cotton & linen items but they all look too casual for the office. Please help!!

[@wonderwardrobe]

Wow, that was so rude! But if you’re interested I’ve been wearing size XS-S all my life. My secret is a balanced vegan diet, daily sport and practicing kindness and empathy. Maybe you should try the last ones as well. We don’t fat shaming in this community.

[@TrangNguyen_Gabriel]

@@wonderwardrobe sorry, I didn't mean that. I mean you're looking good with some new curves and I can see that you look much happier now. I think woman should all love their bodies and the change of its. I have been a curvy woman for the majority of my life and I love my curves. I often gain weight after vacation because of the delicious food and it's hard to feel good in my clothes then. But some walk will do the trick. Stay curvy, stay fit. I just want to share my opinion. Don't be sensitive about weight. You look amazing, even better than before.
