Like I mentioned yesterday, I'm bidding adieu to my winter capsule. The whole month of March felt like a drawn-out goodbye to winter. We had some cold days, so I'm glad I didn't pull out all the spring clothes on March 1st, but for the most part I just wanted to be done with winter and everything related to it. I did have a few go-to combos to get me through the last month of winter wear.
{one} stripes with everything. As you know, stripes are a favorite of mine no matter the season, but this month in particular I was hitting my favorite pattern hard. If I'm not sure what to wear or I'm feeling uninspired, I just reach for a striped top and always end up with a look that feels like "me."

{two} chambray layers. My love affair with chambray just keeps getting stronger, friends. This month I was all about wearing my trusty chambray shirt unbuttoned as a light jacket. I hope you're not weary of this wardrobe staple, because I can promise that she'll be staying in the line-up for spring.

{three} add a little color. So in January, my song was "neutrals are everything!" Gray, navy, camel, black, white...all music to my ears. Well, since I turned my calendar to March, I've changed my tune. Now I hum along to "for the love of all things holy, can I get some color!?" So this month I've done what I can to add a little color to the neutral jungle.

{for fun} winter capsule least worn item awards. Although I didn't track every outfit I wore this winter, there are a few items that stand out to me that I wore significantly less than other items. These items get the "least worn" award and for several of them, their prize is a trip to the donation bin (or consignment shop).
