Here's an idea for a fun video: Liz creates outfits out of pyjamas & other nightwear! I'd totally watch that! 😍👏 👍

[@nataliemayo5410]

I think borrowing clothes from family or friends is a great way to expand your wardrobe and play with different styles while consuming less and being less wasteful!

[@AntonWongVideo]

2:24 "media offline" as a full-time video editor, that pain felt so real😭 about the "point" of a capsule wardrobe...I think it's really up to your goal. If there's no need to be dogmatic about it, why do so?

[@karengrohs4942]

This was great. I don't think that borrowing is cheating on your capsule. I think it's creative. I love that red patterned jacket and the plaid dress, but all your outfits are great. I've been trying consciously to wear pieces that I seldom wear at least a couple of times a week. It's fun!

[@HomemakerDaze]

Thanks for acknowledging about your capsule wardrobe being a choice. You're a kind person.

[@thelarisa]

I really love this video and your adjacent one. As a 35yr old former personal shopper/stylist who has probably designed 100-200 capsule wardrobes for individual clients, I have always felt that a successful capsule wardrobe is specifically about: catering pieces that bring you joy, comfort, individuality, and ease-of-use to your every single day, therefor eliminating the anxiety, distress, and/or confusion that comes from trying to pick random outfits day in and out without any real direction.

[@nervouscrepe]

You have single-handedly changed the way I look at my wardrobe. I was in a rut - always seeing the same outfits in my closet and getting bored. I try to buy secondhand, but really try to be intentional and not to buy just for the sake of "shopping". So, even though I was bored with my closet, I had no idea what I "needed" to spice it up again. Thanks to you, it turns out that I just needed to shift my perspective. I have avoided layering for fear of it transporting me back to layering four tank tops in middle school in the 00's lol I didn't realize how many "styles" I had been afraid of trying because of what I thought they would look like in my mind. But, you encouraged me to play more with the clothes I already own, and I was so surprised to see what actually looked good on my body now and redefine what I want my style as an adult to be. I have fallen back in love with some really great pieces and have a much better idea of what I'm missing, in order to shop intentionally at thrift stores again. You're such a wholesome and intelligent "influencer" and I am so glad I found your channel!

[@fairuzahulk]

I completely agree about getting set in your ways with styling. I recently tried numbering some clothing options to create outfits with a random number generator and yeah, some are awful, but it has definitely helped in making me consider wearing items in different combinations and see the full potential of certain pieces.

[@fairuzahulk]

@@beepwrld Ngl, I got the idea from some old Buzzfeed videos, so I can't take credit! It is a lot of fun though, so I definitely recommend giving it a try.

[@christiana_mandalynn]

Your description of having a stronger, more cohesive sense of signature style, like a character in a show or cartoon character that we can easily identify is a HUGE reason why I want to develop my personal style! I want to be able to look at something and think, “that’s totally my style” or even have people text me and say, “I saw this and totally thought of you!!”

[@theyogainn]

I feel like there’s a difference between buying new things and borrowing new things/receiving gifts. Borrowing from other people is more about wanting to experiment with another person’s wardrobe. It also shows a sense of appreciation for their style. And receiving gifts over the holidays shows how much someone loves you since they probably put a lot of thought into their gift.

[@winterwrenn]

That beaded dress outfit is SO CUTE! I love it! I also have a more 60’s 70’s, colorful and feminine style but I also have two modes: 1. Casual and comfortable with jeans and tanks, tees and flannels/cardigans or cute dresses/skirts and fun tops.

[@shraddhar5352]

me 20 seconds after you post this: you’re killing it sweetie

[@haveasmiletoday2814]

I absolutely adored this video. I really love the idea of being a cartoon character with a signature outfit. That's my new goal now lol. So glad you ended up making this video.

[@snowpetalss]

thank you for posting a follow-up !! btw i think the clip of the purple paisley top at 2:24 didn’t actually make it into the video-wanted to let you know asap since you just uploaded it !

[@Lalalandshark]

I relate so hard to wearing PJs all day. I really like this analysis of your capsule wardrobe, and I don't think it's a bad thing that you weren't more creative with some of the outfits! Having access to your full wardrobe is great for creativity, but a capsule wardrobe, to me, is an easy way to grab some clothing and put together an outfit with little thought. Also, congrats on your channel growing!!

[@amydillardGypsySoul]

Great video! I think the purpose of capsule wardrobes is to use what you have in creative ways, so I think switching out accessories or even shoes to make more outfits is totally okay. Bravo!

[@abbyclay1412]

Love the video and the insightful conclusions at the end! I always look at my closet and feel like it has so much untapped potential because I have nowhere to wear most of my clothes and therefore don't get a chance to try out crazy combinations.

[@jemi_]

Such cute outfits! 💕 I've done a capsule wardrobe myself for some trips, and I definitely missed having some more vibrant options, so it was smart of you to keep the bottoms neutral and the tops more experimental! 😆

[@tajashania]

this was so fun to watch!! must have taken you ages to film and edit as well so kudos to you 💖

[@aliciabeem9236]

Love this! I did a similar thing when visiting family for thanksgiving and it was so fun! I actually picked a color palette to help all the clothes go together loll

[@xxNaaviixx]

ok also this was genuinely quite informative and inspirational. i'm trying to use all my clothes more and in more interesting ways, and it's cool to see items repeated in new outfits. you're so right about being stuck in a single way of styling something

[@TheTbear103]

Fantastic looks Liz! As someone who likes to keep my clothes nice. I'm too clumsy spilling stuff at home. That's why my pjs can be helpful for me. Day 2 w beret, Day 11 the beaded dress black & white ensemble were chef's kiss! Also nice grey overcoat

[@Cass63450]

This was as interesting as I anticipated. Also: thought provoking. Thank you! I am firmly in the b. answer field. I recently went to an event where everyone brought clothes they did not want anymore and got to try on other people's things and maybe take it, that was awesome. I think, it's about not buying new stuff or only very consciously. Although your thoughts on trying new combinations with stuff one has is also very important and an inspiration. Finally: The part where you acknowledged the privilege of doing this as sort of an experiment really touched me. Chapeau! And thank you!

[@mollyschamberger6885]

Omg the graph I love it! And I think it’s important to find novelty in the things we already own, it keeps fashion fun and inspires creativity rather than feeling like you need to limit yourself

[@cararichardson7092]

[@domy6827]

yess! "fashion doesn't have to be hierarchical" spot on

[@breenafain4531]

I love this! I do think it is totally fine to not challenge yourself to wear all the combinations you had in your mind. I mean you're at home! and cozy! Plus every creative person needs break. And the outfits you did come up with are still so cute!

[@phoebegonzales]

Great video and capsule! Daria Andronescu has a youtube channel on creative, colourful capsules. She goes in depth on the data of what our actual lives require vs all the fancy occasions we pretend we attend in order to buy unrealistic clothes. Also she rotates her clothes based on new capsules each season, so her items feel fresh to her often. Interesting stuff Would be keen to see you do more of them to challenge that creativity like you were saying :)

[@Rosegoblin]

I think I may try this for an experiment to try get some inspiration with what I currently have. 🌸 thank you!!

[@alainaacton6358]

I feel like borrowing is essential to capsule wardrobes because it can add something new but it never falls into consumerism because you aren’t buying new, and you’re putting things to use which is always an amazing option

[@EstherAller]

great video, loved your perspective. I want to try short dress over longer skirt now

[@almaattef1094]

heyyy girl, I discovered your channel recently and I love the vibes and perspectives you bring in your videos Greetings all the way from Egypt, keep going

[@LongHairCarolyn]

One of the pieces I have worn for years and more than anything else I own is a ridiculously colorful tee shirt dress. It’s green with flowers and paisley in at least five other colors. It’s remarkable how many things I actually can match it with because of all the colors!

[@hafdisbjarnadottir2943]

[@artistandthecity7585]

I’ve been visiting family over the last few months with a couple gaps in between and I LOVED having a capsule wardrobe much more than I thought. Everything was hand picked so it became clear to me that these were my favorite outfits and so it brought me joy to combine them every day.

[@samantharose1001]

Yay I’m so glad this was such a reflective experience for u in ur fashion journey. I appreciated what you said about allowing the outfits to be what they were rather than the pressure to find the best possible combination

[@samantharose1001]

@@beepwrld I feel like it was satisfying (partly the creative aspect and partly my on-and-off urge to purge things from my life, though I j put stuff in a storage bin); I also found that I didn’t end up with exclusively neutral pieces. I still wanted color and fun fabrics/ textures

[@z.c.m9908]

Capsule wardrobe should be about having less stress about what to wear... borrowing or adding an accessory is not cheating and if it causes stress then that's what you have to question and that is what you should consider .. a capsule wardrobe is your personal wardrobe is not for nobody else... you're not having to prove yourself to anybody else.. it's for yourself, so do what feels right for you do what feels good, and don't worry about anybody else and nobody else will worry either ❤

[@lesbambi4398]

Loved your outfits and the discourse on some of the concepts behind capsule wardrobes 9:45 I also agree with point b Might re set up my capsule, it helps with decision fatigue and I feel like i get more creative with my accessories

[@thevoidfish]

woah, some people don’t already dress like a cartoon character??? I feel like if I don’t wear my most “signature” outfit as often as I can, people might miss it. what if a random stranger’s only impression image of my style was my 6th favourite outfit??? unthinkable. honestly impressed that some people actually change it up every day

QUESTION - why was the purple paisley top redacted by the Russian government?

[@Mintshake_bunny]

Wow, will have to rewatch this because there's just so much to think about! Love how you mentioned the character thing, funnily enough I've been thinking about my most repeated (not pjs,I also just wear those when at home all day) outfits and how they could be what I wore if I was a character in a comic! And I vote for B, I'd personally feel very restricted with option A and just end up very stressed in the end. Also, amazing dedication for re-filming all the outfits! The graoh was great too, loved seeing it because my perception was also deceived while watching this, I would have sworn the red patterned jacket was your most worn item O_O

[@emilyjuliet]

Ok can I literally copy and paste your Christmas afternoon outfit😭😍

[@_emindie_]

i am feeling inspired

[@HerWanderlust]

Great video! I have no "basic classic neutrals" or even something like jeans in my wardrobe. I tend to prefer certain colors and they all go together for the most part-and I have sets of clothes that don't match my whole wardrobe, but embody different styles or moods that I often want to wear so everything I have does have 'partners' it can be styled with

[@christiana_mandalynn]

I LOVE seeing this part 2! Thank you so much for recreating these outfits!!

[@mmaantj]

having a smaller wardrobe gives me a lot less decision anxiety while getting dressed. like usually im so overwhelmed by the options that i cant choose but with a smaller wardrode i felt like that cartoon character you talked about.

[@MiscellaneousMatilda]

I absolutely loved this video! I did capsules all throughout 2022 and have been testing out a few other wardrobe challenges so far this year, which has been a lot of fun. I don't think borrowing pieces is cheating :)

[@MiscellaneousMatilda]

@beepworld So far I've done an experiment where I was only allowed to wear neutrals, one where I wasn't allowed to wear ANY neutrals, and now I'm working on one where I'm trying to dress according to "my colours", based off of an online colour analysis test 😊

[@celiatoast]

Hi! Great video! I love the scientific charts ;D I've been using the app stylebook for some months now - you can upload pics of all your clothes and log them into a calendar. For many years i've been trying to minimize my wardrobe, but i feel quite attached to clothes somehow :D now with the app i see exactly how often i wear which item and can be more rational when decluttering. But where it has helped me the most, is by pushing me to being more creative with what i already own. If an item has only been worn once, i feel bad for it and try to come up with fun ways to wear it (don't wanna neglect them ;D). This has also been a great help in spending less on clothes, because i no longer feel like sth is missing. It is plainly visible what items i rarely wear, so i don't feel tempted to get a similar one. So it also helps to find and reevaluate ones style. Also, there is a category "brands" that i upcycled to "where i got it from" - this way i can see how many items were bought new, secondhand, a gift, swopped or selfmade. I found that super interesting to see :) (i love me some analytics) The app is not free, but i've saved loads of money on buying clothes by using the app in a fun way. There are probs free apps that do the same, or you can track your wardrobe in your caldndar or in a good old excel. Also i only just discovered your channel and find your style so charming, exciting and inspiring! Bybyee

So, minimalists use capsule wardrobes to have almost nothing, infusing no stress outfit choices, so that they consume NOTHING (except replacing what's worn out) and to focus all their energy on OTHER THINGS, like work, family, travel, etc. They're still living their best life because they DON'T CARE ABOUT FASHION or their wardrobe too much. Maximalists can still use capsule wardrobes if they also don't care too much about fashion or their wardrobe, and want to think more about other things they're curating- like collectibles, furniture, or travel a ton. But, I love an approach where I have maybe triple a normal "capsule wardrobe" size-- like 120 instead of 40, as long as I LOVE EVERY PIECE. 120 items can make thousands of outfits, and I love them all, and it's great for the environment-- it works out exactly the same, because if minimalists have 40 items every season, that's 160 items throughout the year A N Y W A Y, so, what are we arguing over?? 🤪🤔🙃 I also am so grossed out by neutrals (except crisp white! That's my one neutral) Greige life isn't for me. Accumulate just a few pieces every couple of months, and you'll always have a shiny hit of dopamine without trashing the earth. And a fun, interesting, variegated wardrobe that never gets boring ❤
