My Entire Minimalist Wardrobe

- All of the clothes I own are shown in this realistic year-round capsule wardrobe. My extreme minimalist wardrobe is a basic capsule wardrobe with solid colors I can mix and match. I’m taking you on a closet tour of my minimalist closet and sharing my minimalist wardrobe tips. I focus on the basic wardrobe essentials and have decluttered my closet of everything I don’t need, love or use. My entire minimalist wardrobe fits into a suitcase for travel as my husband and I are currently traveling abroad.

Your wardrobe should fit your unique lifestyle. What are some of your favorite wardrobe items?
Interesting but not even one dress ? 🤔
I return again and again to the most comfortable items. I'm thin, but no more skin-tight jeans for me...and I live in cashmere sweaters, which last forever. 😊
Second hand shops can have very reasonable and beautiful clothing. No reason to wear things to a frazzle.
@@sandrachank6982 And the online sites that sell secondhand things are fantastic. I buy nearly everything that way, much of it never worn. Just this week I found a beautiful Hunkydory sweater for 9€. I can't imagine buying retail anymore unless it's a bra or underwear! 😂
I would just add a black A - line skirt or palazzo for an evening out. That's my favorite fit (for my slightly pear shape). I started replacing my T-shirts with very basic crochet tops in good bamboo or cotton yarn. I'm a farmer, and just over 50. I have a very active lifestyle, but also want a relaxed sophisticated look when I'm not working.
I find it amusing how many people sound like they expected Connie’s wardrobe to be what THEY would have as a wardrobe. The idea is to take inspiration from this video. Choose colors that work for you! Choose pieces that work with your climate! It requires a little contemplation, not just watching a video. And if your argument is that this wouldn’t work for you, why not just be happy it does for her?
I like Connie’s style in general. I agree, her videos are suggestions for comfortable and elegant look especially for her body type, hair color and lifestyle. Yours may be different.
Also, most of these items point to Amazon purchases. I would suggest you read reviews and fabric description before purchase and make sure to check on quality once you receive them. You may find it disappointing.
Agreed
When I retired, I adopted a simple wardrobe that works in every climate. No dresses, skirts, shorts or heels. I wear the exact same style of black cotton cargo pants and black slip-on loafers every day. I have a handful of short-sleeve t-shirts, and a soft cashmere sweater for layering. Add a light puffer jacket with a zip-out lining and my favorite silk velvet scarf. Everything is washable and no ironing needed. If I travel and need sandals, boots or outerwear, I buy it there and leave it behind.
I am retired also. I love your idea. But what do you do if you need to go to a funeral, a wedding etc. ?
For three years, I lived and loved minimalistic travel with even less than you. Mine fit in one carry-on-sized suitcase. I have socks, undergarments, colorful and neutral short & long-sleeved t-shirts, 1 skirt, 1 jeans, 1 yoga pants, a couple fine gauge cardigans, an ultra-light backpacking squashable parka, and quick-dry running shorts & tank top (for swimming and exercising.) Shoes are birks, ballet flats, and Merrell hiking shoes. I'm so minimal in my jewelry that it is always on my body. I use separate cloth pencil bags for: 1. toiletries 2. manicure 3. sewing 4. hair clips and comb 5. watercolor supplies. I don't wear any make-up except cherry chapstick, and I scrunch my long hair into waves without products for styling. I always carry a few books in addition to Kindle ones on my laptop. It's amazing how long travel-size toiletries last. Now that I'm back in a house, I long for the simplicity of that suitcase. My wardrobe is larger now but still has the same T-shirt & cardigan style with jeans, yoga pants, or skirts as the occasion dictates.
I notice ironing doesn't feature largely in your wardrobe choices .. lol. Bravo for not being paranoid that everything is crease free. I need to take this on board too.
Agreed, I haven't owned an iron in many years
I don’t have a lot of clothes, but don’t think I would just get rid of stuff to downsize. My luck I would need a item and it would cost me money to replace. It saves me money using all my clothes until not usable then I toss out. Works for me.
You are so tall and slim that EVERYTHING you wear looks lovely on you! Good job on paring it down to the essentials!
I’m so at peace now that I’ve seen such a video that pairs everything down to one suitcase. I’m going to make this my goal. This was so helpful. Thank you!
I think I need to purge my closet! I turned all my hangers backwards and turn them back around when I wear something so at the end of the season those not turned back around well those clothes will have to go! ❤🇨🇦
I love the selection of your wardrobe. I am a minimalist myself but your wardrobe you have selected mindfully is such a masterpiece.👍👏❤️
Thanks so much!
Natural fabrics over polyester; your clothes are beautiful and classic
I actually think you have the perfect wardrobe. All your clothes look great on you. Brilliant idea wearing neutrals that you can mix and match. ❤️
Thank you for the lovely compliment!
@@ConnieRietp😮
It's interesting that you have no patterned items in your wardrobe at all or dresses, just separates, but I find your lack of 'stuff' VERY uplifting, empowering & thought provoking. I am off to clear out my cupboards & wardrobes! You have inspired me & yes I have subscribed & will look forward to your next vlog 😊
Thank you Connie. This is so encouraging and helpful. Have a beautiful day too.
Lovely video Connie...very helpful ideas to make things easy and simple!!!xxx
Wonderful ideas and wonderful outfits. You have given me food for thought. Thank you!
Beautifully shot video. When I think of a near perfect capsule wardrobe for me these colors and materials come to mind. I appreciate the effort you put into it.
Connie, I love all your videos. You are a fantastic person! Beautifully short video. Thank you.
I love your casual yet sophisticated style and I appreciate you're putting links to where some of these fine pieces could be found. 🙏
How awesome. I wish I could be so brave. Your style really suits you. Thanks for the inspiration 😊
You've given me the perfect template to begin with. Thank you!
A beautiful wardrobe. Thank you for sharing 😍.
I can’t believe you fit all that in your suitcase! Amazing!
It's a bit like puzzle, but with a little creative packing I make it fit😀
Wow, Connie, this is just what I need! My family lives in Central America but plans to move back to a mild climate in Europe again soon. I love that your wardrobe picks cover almost any climate. Last year I moved a couple dozen times, so keeping it minimal is very important to me too.
Thank you for sharing. This video was very helpful in helping me downsize my wardrobe.
Thank you so much for sharing !!! A beautiful collection
This is awesome. I am totally of the same mindset. Very similar taste as you - and also travel a lot. You’ve given me some good ideas about paring down even more!
I just love this....Thankyou so much for sharing....You give me inspiration and I really need it.
I’ve have going on with this stuff so many years, and it feels it never ending.
Your video give me a kick in the but.
🙏🏻❤️🥰
I really enjoyed this video! Just discovered you and love this capsule wardrobe model. I'll use it as a template, adding my colors and style preferences. So very informative and so pleasant and calm, I loved your voice and your artful shots of the clothing and you. One addition would be nice: showing more full length shots of the different outfits as you wear them. I love to see how they look as a look. Great work!
Love your exemplo. I am working on myself. Thank you!!
I love how you wear the tank tops as both a top and for workouts! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thank you Connie.
I learn so much every time your video! ❤
I'm so glad!
Love it❤ I am working toward a similar wardrobe. Since I no longer need to go to the office, I can do with less. You are an inspiration, wish that I can retire and travel as you do.
A capsule wardrobe be it new , thrifted or made is a gift to myself when i reach my weight goal . Your wardrobe is a great inspiration thank you
I’m a minimalist. I was just ready for another ‘purge’ of my wardrobe but was in a conundrum, and then I saw your video pop up! I’m on it! Thanks for the injection!
Thank you for sharing, your wardrobe is very beautiful.
I love this. I've been living a little bit of a nomadic lifestyle for about a year now in Southern California, and am looking for tips on how to build a classy, multi-purpose, efficient minimalist wardrobe. This is a great video. Thank you!
Thank you for your videos. I always learn things and you are so calm. Love you!
Hi JT, how's your day going with you?
Love your capsule wrdrobe. Everything is so beautifully thought out. The colors are wonderful.
thank you
This is a pretty clever selection of clothing. Many people with a lot more clothes wouldn't be able to pull together soany outfits as you.
Great video, I love your choices and they look great on you. Its my goal to reduce my wardrobe and this was very well done, thank you.
Beyond a lovely mindful approach to your wardrobe. You inspired me with the beautiful scenery to always make the most of enjoying the beauty in my surroundings too. Thank you.
Thanks so much, Kathleen!
😅without knowing it, my wardrobe are almost exactly the same as you ….. and i love it …. It’s simple, comfortable, can be dressed up or down …. And i live in a house …. I use a quarter of our walking closet the rest of the space is used by my husband 😂😂
I will be traveling for 3 months in Europe this summer with only a vjallraven 17” backpack (8kg max) and a little crossbody bag … 👍👍👍 perfect for me 😊
Lovely items in your wardrobe. And I love how that one shade of brown on a purse, literally does go well with everything ❤😊
It might be one of my favorite purses I've owned.
I have a purse the same shade leather & love it. I was able to get rid of all my other bags and use just one!
Your choices are beautiful. I really love your neutral and earthy color palette.
This is so wonderful. I've been thinking of doing this for a very long time. My house is so tight for space... Also I think it's less trouble figuring out what to wear.
Stunning wardrobe, accessories and hair 😊💕
Bravo! I am in process of paring down my wardrobe. Over the past few years, I realized that I wear very few of my clothes. The next thing I noticed was that the favored clothes are natural fiber and easy to wear. Dresses are my 'go to'. The area I have the most difficulty with is shoes-it is hard to find comfortable, attractive shoes that are supportive and do not make my legs look stumpy. Sandals and boots are the easiest. I cannot wear heels any longer, so dressier shoes are hard to find.
Check out Vivaia for shoes that another traveling channel recommended.
Love your choices! I need to get into my closet and dresser and mindfully choose! For instance, I have a more fitted top that has brown, black and white in it. Which would go perfect with my dress pants (Brown pair, etc). I have too many patterned skirts I dont ever wear and dresses I havent worn in years that need to go! I too love sweaters. I have a tannish color one and a black one and a blue one. All the stuff I mentioned abive seem to be my go to for work. Casual- 1 jeans, t shirts, 3 pr. Capris. All able mix and match so Im good in casual. Cannot wear heals, need wedges. 1 boots, 1 sneaks, dont like flip flops but 3 pair of flats in canvas (2) and bkack leather (1). Who knew I had a capsule wardrobe even before it became a thing????
Connie, thank you for sharing your wardrobe. Inspiring, minimalistic and charming. I have recently started traveling a lot and also simplified my wardrobe. I try to create a capsule for each trip and it works - I get more outfits with less pieces, because of neutral colors and basic shapes.
Thanks for sharing your traveling wardrobe ideas!
I recently adopted a very similar wardrobe… I find that now, with my sparse selection that I can create FAR MORE interesting combinations because my clothing isn’t surrounded by fifty other items hanging on the bar that are nothing more than “noise”. I certainly dress “better” with 1/4 of my original hoard of clothes. Thank you for your helpful videos and channel ♥
Thank you for sharing your experience with your minimalist wardrobe!
@@ConnieRiet stop colonizing.
Thanks for sharing. Love your variety and style. My husband and I recently went away for a week and got all of our clothes in one suitcase. 1 bin for shoes and jacket layers. We needed clothes for wide swings in temp and rain. Packing was easy and less stressful.
Hi Leslie, how's your day going with you?
If say your have a cozy-elegant wardrobe. Love it; i love natural fabrics and colors❤
I love this video...inspires me to find my own style and pare down. thanks!
This was a very helpful video. I'm beginning my minimalist wardrobe, 😊
Definitely capsule and neutral / monochromatic. You've given me a great place to start.
Your outfits are beautiful Connie. Thank you for sharing with us.❤
my pleasure
@@ConnieRietp
Greetings Connie! Thank you so much for sharing your wardrobe with us. I keep trying to purge through my clothes, but I do love them all! Some things need to go because they are worn out and some just never get worn. You inspire me! Love and blessings ♥️🙏
I'm hope I could give a few useful ideas!
Such a relief to get rid of worked out clothes. I use clean single socks for cleaning doors floor n cobwebs- I have 30 of singles left.
This video is super helpful to me. I always struggle with how much to own and I am always slowly removing items I don’t use and donating. I still feel like I have too much and I live tiny. I especially appreciate that you said you owned one handbag. I personally loved your choices as I have very similar colors…all neutral so I can interchange things. My favorite was that light skirt and your favorite sweater. I just love those two items. Thank you for sharing I feel another purge coming on … 😂❤👗👚🧣👖😊 Oh wait I forgot those sneakers are perfect‼️ The colors on them are so good.
Wonderful! I'm thrilled you found this video useful.
Lovely & simple. Thank you🤗
My wardrobe is far from minimalist but this year I have only bought two items and some underwear.
You are so slim. Everything looks good on you. It's good to be happy with what you have.
Lovely. This is exactly the breath I needed. My closet over the years has vacillated between minimal and disheveled. Don’t we always go back to our simple roots? I heard your words when you said unexpected/unforeseen events. That’s always when I start getting to that disorganized space again...and retreat back with my tail between my legs in full knowing where I need to stay true 💗
well executed wardrobe Connie. Love your pieces of clothes.
thank you so much!
Reducing wardrobe for traveling is a lot easier than reducing it for professional corporate office attire where people expect you to dress up.
Thanks Connie. You gave me a lot of inspiration 🙏
The perfect style and you have beautiful hair! thanks for sharing.
Hi mich, how's your day going with you?
You and this video are so inspirational. 🙏🏻
You'd make a great model/poster child for Eileen Fisher. Everything you featured looks like her clothing.
I love your wardrobe! Thank you for the inspiration!
Lovely and well thought out. I feel like it helps that you're slim and beautiful so anything looks good on you! Thanks for the inspiration.
Hi Lyn, how's your day going with you?
You've created a very fun and useful wardrobe! I'm impressed 👍🏼
thanks!
This is so difficult to downsize, if temperatures vary over the year from -15°C to +40°C and you need a home (cozy and garden work adjusted) and a business wardrobe...
I reorganized my closet, after losing weight and keeping it off. But I have leggings for yoga and exercise, bicycle riding clothes and hiking clothes and shoes and boots to go with as I live in Colorado. I have numerous swim sits (exercise, resort, hot tubbing, tanning, beach and family) plus beach coverups/ UPV protected clothing too. How can I pare down more when I have hobbies, high altitude, traveling and 4 seasons- often in one day !! ??
Thank you Connie you have inspired me in so many ways, my capsule wardrobe is blue pink and white , i didn't need to buy anything. Rose 🌹 ❤
❤❤❤ I am considering a minimalist wardrobe myself. I would only advice to have a color analysis for the pieces to be in harmony with your skin undertone.
I admire that you can do that. I have been trying to empty my closet out for so long and have been very unsuccessful. I always need another dress for a wedding that is in a different season than what I already have, or I've worn that outfit too many times at parties..there are always reasons I feel that I need to buy something new because what I have in my closet won't work for this reason or that reason. I just can't seem to do it! I give you a lot of credit!
I'm glad you found this video useful. Clothes are funny like that, they always seem to multiply 😂
So inspirational, thank you! I learned the benefits of a minimalist wardrobe many years ago when I was travelling a lot. I had few things, everything went with everything else plus one or two 'special' items. Sadly once I settled in one place the 'closet full of clothes and nothing to wear' monster got me. Okay, I confess it was me not the monster 😂. I finally realised that although I have a wardrobe bursting with lovely clothes I ALWAYS wore the same things, T-shirt and jeans in the summer, turtle neck and jeans in the winter! Now I am weaning myself off of feeling the need to own 100X more items than I will ever wear and it feels SO good to keep only what I LOVE and actually wear, things that will be loved (and worn) to death! BTW I prefer natural fibres too . Thank you Connie for sharing your inspirational journey wih us.❤
I had the same experience a few years ago when we moved into a house. It's crazy how more clothes found their way into my closet.
Awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Love your outfits so elegant and modern. Surprised no lovely easy dresses or 1 for best
Funny you should ask about a dress. 😂I had worn my simple black dress to my daughter's ballet performance the prior week of filming this video. When I washed it, it shrunk 3 sizes! I couldn't even close the front clasps. I'm not sure if I will replace it or just stick to my skirts.
Thank you for all your videos! They are so fun and inspiring to watch. Please tell us the places you are traveling to and what you are enjoying being there.
Hi Melissa, We travel mostly to spend time with our grown children. We visit Costa Rica (for my son), Munich Germany (for my daughter) and USA (for my youngest). When possible we visit nearby countries or places along the way.
Amazing lady . Suci a naturalizirani beauty and I admire her lifestyle and her wardrobe. Well I am basically using 1/4 of my stuff . Love her sandals as they remind me of slimmer younger myself. Great video! Nice regards from London and Croatia!
I'm a 60 yr old black woman and I love your wardrobe!
Thank you so much for this video Connie...I hate clothes, I hate having options, & shopping...thankfully my job is a uniform wear so I dont deal with decision making but I am having trouble finding a good mix n max combo...Im relocating to the Caribbean next Spring so I hardly have any clothes now, just a few tees n a couple of leggins....Im hoping once I move to the island my simple wardrobe will be just that light and simple....
Great video. I love your style. ❤
I like your haircut. 😍 I agree with your tank top tip. I wear them as tops in the summer and underwear to keep warm in the winter.
I love it! So inspiring!
You have a beautiful style!
Wonderful ❤thank you for sharing
Such an elegant and effortless wardrobe but I highly recommend a travel steamer / or crease release spray. you will look sharper. Although you already look absolutely beautiful.
Awesome video. I need to start to work on getting clothing that fits my lifestyle.
Your minimalist wardrobe contains more clothes than my normal wardrobe!
I agree 😁
I like everything you have. It all looks great on you. I have so much that I don't even wear. It seems I wear the same things all the time. Their comfortable and look the best on me. But I still have trouble getting rid of the rest. 🤗
Totally dumping my closet and drawers this weekend and doing this lol
Loved it! Thank you! ❤
I always feel like I have been given a treat when I see that you have posted a new video. I was delighted to stumble across you on the Aura App too. I hope that you are enjoying and adjusting to your new way of life. I love your minimal wardrobe. Where do you typically source the items? ❤
YAY! I'm so glad I can brighten your day. I'm not loyal to any one store or brand. Many items are from second-hand stores or clearance rack. But I search for the best options with good reviews for important travel items like the packable coat and shoes.
Merci de ce partage inspirant.Mon quotidien ayant changé depuis 2023( retraite 😊), j'en ai profité pour désencombrer grandement ma garde-robe.
Mais du coup, elle est déséquilibrée. A tel point que j'ai passé pas mal de mes journées à la maison en jogging 😂 ! Votre vidéo va m'aider à rechercher les tons neutres qui me conviennent et créer des combinaisons plus judicieuses .
Merci merci 😊
Merci!
As a plus size, I would consider modifying the shape and options. The colour pallet is great. I was recently hiking and required marino wool, wicking fabric, and rain gear.
Very nice. You look elegant and chic. I need to downsize now that i am retired. So many dress clothes I will not wear. I suffer from the "just in case" syndrome but really, we all over buy and then don't wear half of what we own. Same with packing, I've learned to never have more than one carry on.
Love your wardrobe 👍
When I retired, I moved to a village in a mountainous resort area. I'm in the Northeast so 9 months of the year you need winter or transitional clothing. It's casual and outdoor oriented so there's few dress up occasions. Even in summer (which is short), it can be hot in the daytime but cool at night. I have lots of layering pieces.i wear jeans, relaxed fit trousers , wide leg pants and casual dresses. I have some tees, button up shirts and tanks. I have my winter gear, but use blazers, sweaters and casual jackets. No heels. Sneakers, oxfords and boots.
I’m so glad you still have a page. Last I watched you and husband were moving. I hope to get where you are. Do you have links to get some sweaters?
I ❤this video! Thank you
I love your choices. Would you be willing to share the designers? Especially those wide leg beige pants! Love them!
