she should do 5 days of trying something new
I loved the segment where you talked about sustainability and our problem with fast fashion and how it contributes to the poor working conditions of workers that make those clothes. It's a great and super important point to bring up and I'm glad you mentioned it. I love this series 💜
Your capsule wardrobe should include bright colors; it's part of your personality. Capsule doesn't have to be dull and basic, it just means pieces that play well together.

Too true but it's more so u have actual clothing for formal and nonfornal things withing a certain limit
I really love how honest you are : "but lets see if my friends even notice, that I put my shirt on backward" next scene "ok, so yesterday, all of my friends noticed. But i tried" - had a really good laugh on this! Please keep this honesty - it makes you so authentic :))
Like this if your whole wardrobe is basically a capsule wardrobe because you wear the same stuff all the time 😂

Wearing 1950s or 1960s or 1970s clothes for five days. Wearing only second hand for five days. Five days of eating only one type of food (sushi for example), five days of going to sleep at 9 pm, five days of ride biking rollerskating going to work, five days of being a mom (use a crying doll which wakes you in the night) . If you use this pls send me some dollars i need money. I have 0 till end of the month. Challenge: surviving with O dollars till end of the month with the food I have. (Beans, flour, noodles, rice and whatever is in the fridge. I tried selling some of the stuffs I have in the house to get money with no success. Neither a part time job hunt was successful.

To be honest, this has really changed my way of thinking. I'm guilty of buying tons of things and staring at my closet and thinking, "I'm too fat for that," or "I have nothing to wear." I spend so much on fast fashion, and this video is gonna be the reason I stop; it's unhealthy for me as an addiction to wanting to buy this and that, and I think it's best I find things that work for me in multiple ways, not just "I can only wear this shirt if I wear these pants." God bless ya Lucie and Refinery29! :p

I capsuled my wardrobe about 3 years ago--and it is life changing! I love all my clothes, don't shop often, and when I do I can afford really nice pieces that I love and will love for years to come.
I really like how you talked about the sustainability of second hand clothing and keeping staple items rather than having a ton of cheap items made by people in poor working conditions. Bravo! We could all benefit from cleaning out our closets and having less stuff in the consumer saturated culture we live in. I totally get how the basics leave you a bit uninspired as I am also a lover of bright colors. I was thinking why does the wardrobe have to be all basics, but I guess it’s because the colors stand out so much and makes it more obvious your wearing the same items in different iterations? Maybe the compromise is to have a slightly larger selection, but keep the wardrobe paired down as much as possible. It’s a great challenge to help train your brain to maximize the items you have, and getting rid of what you don’t need. Thank you!

Thank you for talking about sustainability and some of the ethical problems of fast fashion! As a millenial feminist woman these topics really matter to me and it's great to see someone with such a large following adress these issues! Plus your sense of style is awesome :) x

This is a good one because I had never heard of it before. It was good to see Channing. I own a lot of clothes but I only wear about the same 15-20 items. I haven't been to a mall or purchased clothes /shoes in years. Capsule wardrobe is definitely something for me.

Yes! This is so common! Life with less :)
I loved this one! I've been slowly pairing down my wardrobe into a capsule, and as someone who used to buy a new article of clothing (if not multiple) every weekend, this new lifestyle is FANTASTIC. I only own clothes I love and I feel a confidence boost with every outfit. Not to mention none of my friends have noticed that I've been wearing the same clothing again and again! Most are surprised to learn I operate with only 33 items of clothing! Thank you SO MUCH for talking about the harmfulness of fast fashion. Loved this video, and love Lucie!

LOVE your 5 day videos Lucy! You're a doll! I am in the beginning stages of my capsule wardrobe. Still have a ways to go but already feel the benefits!
I love how creative you always are! I started bullet journaling because of watching your video, and not that i want to start a capsule wardrobe, but i definitely find it interesting! Keep up the good work Lucie (and r29!!) ❤️

Tach Takes aww thank you so much!!!
I'm definitely a capsule wardrobe person now. I never thought I would be, growing up in NYC and being into fashion. But now I live in Texas and bought a house so fashion as it was for me is no longer. I have a winter and summer/spring uniform and it gets me out the door quickly. I've gotten rid of anything even mildly uncomfortable from shoes to clothes and even bras. I buy a lot of black and neutrals, but have a few printed or colorful items too. Accessories are my go to for spicing things up and work well for my busy schedule. I stopped buying fast fashion 10 years ago and now have a closet of things that all work well together and never go out of style!😍🤗
I'm obsessed with capsule wardrobes! Mine is: Tops 1 cotton button down shirt 1 satin button down shirt 1 floral print blouse 1 black and white striped t shirt 1 pullover sweater 1 jacket/blazer 1 winter coat (I live in Canada) Bottoms 1 pair of dress pants 1 pair of jeans 1 maxi skirt Shoes 1 pair of boots 1 pair of sandals 1 pair of oxfords 1 pair of sneakers Accessories 1 winter hat 1 straw summer hat 1 pair of winter gloves 1 scarf 1 backpack/purse- found it on amazon it has the straps of a backpack as well as a purse strap so it can be dressed up a bit- it also has many pockets for whatever I need when I'm on the go like a pocket for my water bottle and sunscreen Only a few real gold pieces of jewellery I'm also into everything in my wardrobe being neutral colored (black, white, navy, brown etc) with pops of warm colors like burgungies, oranges and pinks with brown accessories
A try living with Lucie? What a great way to start the rest of my day!
Hi Lucie! I love these types of videos, they are so creative! Thank you for making my day brilliant!
I LITERALLY WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS. dude. ugh thank you.
I have a capsule wardrobe. I also loveee color and "statement" pieces..... so, I just include them! It has made me more willing to mix and match patterns. I love it.
Omg!! I've been trying to convert to a capsule wardrobe. This is great 😍
Lucie I love ur videos. I litterly watched all of ur videos last night so it's so ironic that you just put out a new video! Keep up with the great videos!!
I love that you took your staple clothes and made them into your own style !!!
You did a GREAT job summing every aspect of the capsule wardrobe up, really, well done!
Your hair looks so cute in this vlog! Glad you did this I've been really interested in the capsule wardrobe for a while now :)

I'm all about minimalism and a staple wardrobe. I got rid of SO MUCH STUFF this year, donated, and stopped shopping unless an item was really truly special or necessary. Feels amazing =)
Yes yes yes! 👍🏼👏🏼🤩great ideas on how to make the same piece of clothing look different! I’ve had a capsule wardrobe for about 2 years now and love it! Thanks for the video!
This was such a cool challenge! I think it has been one of my favorites! You totally rocked it! I really want to challenge myself to do it! Also loved the shirt as a skirt! So creative!
i would definitely want to try a capsule wardrobe!
I agree with you completely, not a capsule wardrobe person myself. I love getting creative and stay aware of sustainability (use vintage, re-make clothes, buy second hand -especially if it's leather, donate, re-sell, buy pieces that last nearly a lifetime) But 10, 15 or 20 pieces isn't any near to what I need living in a climate with cold winters, hot summers and having different profile jobs that require different outfits. This spring I refreshed my wardrobe by selling and buying clothes on eBay. Cost me nothing and completely sustainable. Well done for the challenge. Keep up the good work. 👍🏼
One thing I'm proud of is my wardrobe, i feel like I wear most if not everything so I probably wouldn't try a capsule wardrobe but I LOVE looking at other people who do for inspiration on new ways to wear my clothes!
You should do 5 days of alternative period products!
So much closet inspo!!!!
I'm going to Paris during spring break and your challenge is so perfect! I always overpack and love all the bright statement pieces so a capsule wardrobe (or suitcase) is exactly what I need.
5 days of living a sustainable lifestyle 😍 Loved this one Lucy! I paired down my clothes and helped me so much to define my personal style. The best part is that having my wardrobe paired down to only clothing I love, it has made me rethink my purchases. First it has really makes me feel unique ✨ and second it has to give the people behind my clothes a liveable wage! Thanks for keeping to inspire more people! You‘re a star 💫💕
This is the best series ever ❤️❤️❤️❤️
love the mix n match! so creative and cute at the same time
This is so me ,I love the minimalism the simplicity and buying second handed I started learning about this lifestyle back in 2k16 but today is my official day of being capsule minimalist
Wow I’m so early! Try living with Lucie videos are some of my favorites!
Thank you for introducing me to Capsule wardrobe... I really like the concept of it and am really interested into it.. I feel this is an awesome way for students like me at college to manage our closet space and go creative... Your explanations were really easy to understand and the way u broke the things down was interesting... Thank you once again and I wud like to try this for a week like u did as an expt....

Not a capsule wardrobe follower but I loved what you did. I feel the same way you do, I love my clothes and I get mileage from it so I'll enjoy my wardrobe, but it's nice to watch this video to remind myself I can stop buying clothes and be creative with what I already have.
I love capsule wardrobes, and I actually have my clothes set up in this way as well. Living abroad, it makes traveling so much easier and takes a lot of the guess-work('will this look good?' or 'do these match?') out of getting dressed.
Capsule wardrobes are awesome. I really really recommend trying one out for longer than 5 days. Give yourself a month, or even an entire season and just see how it works for you! A lot like a diet, it's gonna be hard to see the results in just a week :)
Obsessed with this series
You always make videos so interesting and you just have a great personality!! Super great video.
wow, I've never heard about having a capsule wardrobe but found this to be super helpful on decluttering my closet...while also staying stylish too!
This just inspired me to do a bit of a closet purge, so thank you so much
🌀An easy way to add spice to a capsule wardrobe: have multiple prints/patterns in a similar family (stripes, polkadots, plaid etc). Definitely avoiding fast fashion after watching the film: True Cost 📺✔️
Loved this video so much, that blouse skirt idea is so cool!! Despite having a big wardrobe I always end up wearing the same few staple pieces I own - maybe I should consider trying a capsule wardrobe!
I love my capsule. There are certain pieces that I am so excited to dig up again when the season comes! It's like shopping for free :)
NOT AT ALL.... hahahahaha i just cant ,,, love your video as always Lucie .. Xx
This was so sooo good! Thank you!!! P.s. The capsule wardrobe has changed my life! I now feel so confident & in control when it comes to shopping, dressing in the morning and my style in general!

+zanezzz That's amazing! Thanks for watching!
I’ve had a capsule wardrobe for a while and it’s easier to be colorful if you pick a color scheme for your wardrobe. An easy tip for a cohesive wardrobe is picking 4 neutral colors and 3 pops of color. For me I have black, white, tan and dark green and for my color I have red, light blue and mustard. Everything in my wardrobe goes with everything else and it’s awesome.
Awesome to hear you talk about sustainability! You go girl!!
I'm pretty sure I have at least 100 items of clothes in my closet, I neeeed this!
I was thinking to myself earlier, There hasnt been a try living with lucy in a while. What a coincidence
Yes, I've been using this for 2months now. Because my dorm has little space so I have to bring staple clothes that are versatile. And so far my friends didn't notice that I've been repeating my clothes every week. Its a matter of creativity. You can do this, if your pieces is up to 10 and from there you do this the whole month. From monday to thursday mix and match your basic pieces and wear something more printed on Friday. That really works 😀
Lucia your Series is my favorite thing to see💕having fun in the same time taking important tips👌🏿all the way from Saudi Arabia🙈
I have a year round capsule wardrobe. The weather here is California is never cold enough for me.
Fantastic video! He best capsule wardrobe video I have seen! Tfs
YOUR CLOSET IS SOOOO COLOURFUL!!! I think it's what makes someone have a character, clothing is a really nice way to express oneself.
I love the concept of a capsule wardrobe and yours was great! I especially loved the bright red coat, rose gold boots, and LBD. I tend to wear a lot of neutral colors for work and then more colorful pieces for the gym.
Thank you for mentioning ethical/sustainable fashion!!
Lucie maybe you could try 5 days of Ramadan? That would be fasting from sunrise to sunset and since Ramadan is just around the corner, it might be a great learning experience for you and non Muslims

I love mine - but I could never get it to work when I worked in an office but now that I’m home with my toddler it’s amazing - most importantly, it changes how I shop, I only buy things that I know I will love and that I know will last.
Love having a capsule & it makes it really easy to travel, but I totally get the “sometimes it gets boring” feeling. Especially in the winter when longsleves and jeans are all the rage, it sometimes feels a bit limiting wearing the same top & jeans combo
Would love to try a capsule wardrobe! You did so well Lucy!
Loved loved loved this video. Perfect mix of fun and useful and inspirational but not with a "I'm giving you a lesson" tone :)
Loved this! I don't do capsule wardrobe, but I like to clean my closed once in maybe 2 months. And I buy rarely, from trifted to high quality to expensive, having in mind that it suits more than one occation 😊 good reminder to do a clean up 😎
This video inspired me to start a capsule wardrobe. mine is clearly not this small, but I loooooove the simplicity in getting dressed. My wardrobe only consists of 3 colors, but I got quality clothes and I have received more compliments on my wardrobe than I ever have in my life. No one notices that I repeat outfits (not one person has mentioned) and I do much less emotional shopping now
Favvv series!! So much to learn and so new and unique every time!! Only gets better 💋 All love lu!!!💖💖💖 #Instafam
I LOVED THISSSS 💖💓
Wow, what a change for your normal colorful wardrobe! Glad it’s over 😜 I love this idea, but I haven’t tried implementing it
I do a capsule wardrobe, but just for work. I am a teacher, and I rotate my capsule every three months, so I have a different wardrobe for fall, winter, and spring. Some pieces do end up in all three capsules, but I like changing it up so I don't get as bored.
Loooooooved thiiiisss!!!!! ❤️
Best series ever
Capsule wardrobes make it so much easier to travel. My last trip I was able to pack for over a week in a backpack.
✨I Love weaving all black basics & add flair with unique vests & cardigans. Thrifting is a fun way to have a cool wardrobe (saves cash & the environment) 🌎💰
Love this
You always have great video ideas. Love it. 💜
Love the way you put it as for those not getting mileage out of their clothing...YES! No longer guilting myself with this.

I looooove my capsule wardrobe! I do have a basic color of white, but everything else is color color color! I'm a type 1--I don't wear black and never will again. Capsule wardrobes can be as colorful as you want them to be! I have about 32 total items (with shoes) and I always look fab, colorful, friendly and cute! ^.^ Definitely worth a try
love those boots!!
Love this video
Very cool video! Great tips and insight! I'll definitely try this when I travel.
I am SO doing this. I’m in college and I move around a LOT so this would be so helpful.
