Fall/Winter Capsule collection 2017

I finished it!!

My Fall/Winter capsule for 2017 is finally complete! The idea had been floating around in my head since spring when I was working on the Spring/Summer capsule. I really wanted to do a Fall/Winter version because it is so much more fun with the accessories. Finally in late summer I put my ideas together on a page and came up with the following inspiration picture -

And here is my final completed capsule. Some of the items have changed quite a bit but the overall idea is still there. I ended up with a whopping 32 items, not counting accessories! I didn't count shoes and accessories because they are just fun additional pieces and I don't consider them part of my capsule. It is different for everyone, I'm sure. The one thing I really wanted but could not get around to was a trenchcoat. I have a few patterns for it, including D&D luzerne. I will get to it in 2018 for sure!

But what is in this capsule? Well, let's do a count - 4 skirts (2 woven, 2 knit), 4 pants (2 woven, 2 knit), 14 tops (9 woven, 5 knit), 9 layers, and 1 dress. A full listing of outfits and patterns is at the end of the post.

Now let's look at some of the collages I came up with. I had so much fun putting the outfits together. It has taken me a long time to get the pictures together and I had to finally stop myself at some point and say it is enough photos LOL!

I tried to show at least 3 ways to use the same piece. These collages are arranged by bottoms first, then the tops, layers, and finally, accessory in the end.

I also made one of the accessories! I know, technically I'm not including it in the capsule but it's very cute and versatile. It is SHO!L by the german designer SHO!. The shawl/scarf can be wrapped many different ways around the body to give different looks. I'll mainly use it as a scarf though.
