🏮Add this to your NYC Winter bucket list! 🏮

My friend and I were invited to attend the inaugural weekend of the NYC Winter Lantern Festival. It’s an immersive outdoor experience of over 20 handmade lantern sculptures with the theme ‘Journey to the East,’ mostly depicting characters in Chinese mythology. My personal favorites were the Monkey King and Ya Zi, a creature that appears to be a hybrid of a wolf a dragon (it’s the purple one in the video!).

The festival is in Staten Island, right off the ferry by the outlets. Getting there was super easy, we met in lower Manhattan and took the ferry over (FREE, btw!) getting a fantastic view of the Statue of Liberty on the way. 🗽

I think the festival will be especially beautiful with snow on the ground, so add it on your bucket list for this holiday season!

How many times? I assumed many. Easily more than 30x… but I may have been way off. 🙈😬 #ad

I was curious to know how many times, on average, I wear each item in my wardrobe before I part with it. My approach to a sustainable wardrobe has always been “buy less, wear more”, but I was feeling my way through it instead of collecting actual data.

At the beginning of the summer I started logging my outfits daily on the openwardrobeofficial app, and I was surprised to find out that on average, I’ve worn the pieces in my summer capsule about 6 times. That’s it, 6 times only! I thought that with a minimalist capsule for the season, I would for sure have worn each piece more times, but man was I wrong.

This is making me wonder if the majority of the pieces I’ve owned have made it to the recommended 30 wears that would make for a sustainable purchase. For a seasonal piece to make it to 30 wears, not only would I need to wear it about 4x per month during the season, but I would also need to keep it for about 3 years, AND, the piece would have to be of fantastic quality to be able to sustain that many wears plus all of the washing and storing in between. Frankly, I’m doubtful that many of my pieces will make it to 30. 😬

I’m surprised at how insightful it’s been to log my outfits daily on OpenWardrobe. They say the more you know, the better choices you make - I’m interested to see how this little experiment will impact my shopping habits in the future. 

How many times do you think you wear your pieces before parting with them? Are you happy with the number, or do you think there’s room for improvement?

SURPRISE!!!

I’m BEYOND EXCITED to be able to be able to share that I’m now a CERTIFIED COLOR CONSULTANT, and franchisee owner of House of Colour NYC! 🎉

Getting my colors done completely changed my life. It now takes me less than 20 minutes to get ready from beginning to end each morning (shower included!) and I feel and look 10x better than I did before. EVERY ITEM in my wardrobe now mixes and matches, and shopping has become significantly more fun and easier. It really is a game changer!

I had no idea that a request for a video on color analysis last year would introduce me to this incredible new passion for color. And for that, I’m incredibly grateful to you!

I’m looking forward to helping you discover your best colors in my color studio, opening very very soon! Follow houseofcolournyc_fernanda for more color updates, and check out today’s YouTube video if you want to hear more about this change! 2022-06-16 20:35:14 SURPRISE!!! .. 452 -99% 53 -39%

At this point, my system for building a capsule wardrobe is pretty efficient. I’m sharing it in today’s video!

I’ve put together TONS of capsule wardrobes in the last two years. 50, 60? Maybe more. And while it still takes a while to shop for the exact right pieces to include in the capsule, I’ve gotten the process down to a  simple system that gives me (and my clients!) a great capsule every time.

I can now plan for a capsule wardrobe in about an hour, and the rest of time is spent shopping for the items. 

I’m taking you behind the scenes through my step-by step process of building my summer capsule wardrobe, and you’ll see a few previews for what’s to come. Check it out in the link in bio, or search “Fernanda summer capsule planning” on YouTube! 2022-05-12 21:10:52 At this.. 199 -100% 14 -84%
YOUR CLOSET HAS WAY MORE POTENTIAL THAN YOU REALIZE!!

Sometimes when I’m working with a styling client, they show me an inspiration image and ask me to find them similar pieces to recreate the outfit. Most of the time, they already have fantastic pieces in their wardrobes that can give them the effect they are seeking, and they don’t have to buy anything new to achieve the look.

This is what it means to shop your closet - instead of looking for the exact piece to buy from an influencer, look in your closet to see what could work in a similar way. There’s a good chance you’ll end up liking the outfit you put together better than the original, since it will better reflect your personal style. 

In today’s video I recreated a few outfits I found on Pinterest, all with pieces I already owned (and clothes you’ve seen me wear over and over again!). In some instances, I can recreate the outfit pretty closely, and in others, I mainly take inspiration from the image (swipe to see) - but either way, we end up with two completely new outfits.

“WHAT DO YOU THINK I SHOULD WEAR?” I’m sure you ask your girlfriends this all the time!

Sometimes you don’t have time to pick an outfit, are not sure what looks cute on you anymore, or you feel so tired of your wardrobe that you forget how much potential it has.

Well, picture this - the next time you don’t know what to wear, you can share your virtual closet with a friend or a stylist, and they can put together outfits for you, NO MATTER WHERE THEY ARE! 🤯

I did just that this week - I asked brilamberson to style three outfits from the clothes in my wardrobe for me, and she did not disappoint! She put together combinations I had never thought about before, and the results were incredible.

Bri and I each made videos about our experience using the new sharing feature on openwardrobeofficial , and showed you the outfits we put together for each other. Check them out!

A kind viewer in my comments did the math recently, turns out you can get 72 outfits from just 12 pieces if everything mixes and matches 🤯

You need to know how to spot these 8 indicators of quality in clothing BEFORE you buy it!

Raise your hand if you’ve ever wasted your hard-earned money on an item that fell apart on you after only a few wears. I’ll go first 🙋🏻‍♀️ 

Before I learned how to inspect my clothing for signs of low quality, I would end up with all sorts of ill fitting clothes that didn’t last, looked terrible after just one wash, or that I NEVER wore. They were of such poor quality that they were basically disposable - I may as well have thrown my cash straight into a trash can instead of buying them!

Over time, I learned to identify the 8 indicators of quality in a garment, and my clothing purchases have become better investments - regardless of whether I pay a lot of money for them or not. 

I made a video showing you what to look for in garments before you buy, taking you from the most obvious signs to the most difficult ones to spot. Check it exclusively on the openwardrobeofficial app! 2022-02-16 21:33:52 You nee.. 373 -99% 8 -91%
I’ve been dressing from my winter capsule for almost 5 weeks now, and it’s without a doubt my favorite of all the capsule’s I’ve put together for myself.

This time, I had two tools that were invaluable to make sure that every single piece mixed and matched well with the others. 

The first one were my color cards, which helped me make sure that all of the colors in the capsule went well with my complexion AND combined seamlessly with one another. 

The second was my digital wardrobe on openwardrobeofficial. Having all of the pieces in my wardrobe digitized made it super easy for me to shop for new items. I basically had my wardrobe in my pocket, so I could make sure I wasn’t buying any repeats, that any new items I was putting considering buying worked with the items already in my capsule, and it even helped me put together some outfits with the items I already had right there in the store. I had never had a capsule wardrobe come together so quickly before, and I don’t think I’ll ever go back to my old ways!

I highly recommend checking out OpenWardrobe to anyone looking to put together their first capsule. This app makes it SO easy to put one together, and to filter the outfits by capsule so that you can easily get dressed from those items only!

Honestly, the first time merit sent me some of their products it was before my color analysis, and every single item I picked was the wrong color for me. 🤦🏻‍♀️

This time around all the colors are right, so I’m able to get ready for my day in less than 5 minutes, and I don’t need a lot of makeup - just the right things.

Merit created a minimalist makeup line that is analogous to a capsule wardrobe - my entire makeup routine is only 5 products, and that is IT! Less is more when you’re wearing makeup in your right colors. 

Products used:
* THE MINIMALIST Perfecting Complexion Stick in Dune
* CLEAN LASH Lengthening Mascara in Perfect Black
* BROW 1980 Volumizing Pomade in Brown
* FLUSH BALM Cheek Color in Raspberry Beret
* SHADE SLICK Tinted Lip Oil in Sangria

Tools:
* BRUSH NO.1 Blending Brush
* Eyelash Curler

#ad Now that I know my best colors, I’m considering bringing some new items into my wardrobe. But, I want to be mindful of actually buying things I need and will wear a lot, and not just buying from impulse. 

My solution has been adding items that catch my eye into my openwardrobeofficial and keeping them separate from the items I already own, in a wardrobe I called “Have my eye on.” 

I challenge myself to find at least 10 ways I can wear an item with the clothes that are already in my closet before I purchase it. If I can do that, then I’ll actually consider spending money on it.

Since being mindful is the name of the game here, it doesn’t make sense to start adding color to my wardrobe by purchasing items that I can’t wear right now (like the pink jacket,) or items that don’t sit near my face (the skirt, shoes) so I’m focusing on the sweaters and tops.

Since I was able to put together 10 pretty solid outfits with the green top (swipe to see) I felt confident purchasing it for my winter capsule - but I loved it so much, I’ve already been wearing it!

Do you put some distance between wanting something and actually buying it? How do you do it? 2021-11-19 22:43:33 #ad Now.. 152 -100% 14 -84%
I have recently been fascinated (borderline obsessed) with all things color. 🌈

This gif is from a recent camera test. My makeup is exactly the same between the first and second frame, but notice the crazy difference that wearing a Wow color near my face makes.

In the third frame, it's still the same makeup, with the addition of a little bit of lipstick in another one of my best colors.

It's crazy to me that such a small thing can have such an incredible effect. And this is just the tip of the iceberg - imagine a wardrobe full of things that can have a huge impact.

I did a thing!! 🌈

Color is one of those elements that can have the most impact on your appearance with the least effort. Wearing colors that harmonize with your natural skin tone can make you look healthy and well rested, whereas wearing the wrong hues can drain the natural color on your face and even make you look sickly and tired. 

(Don’t believe me? Swipe right to see me looking ROUGH in an unflattering color)

But figuring out which colors look best on you can be incredibly tricky. I have tried quizzes, asking makeup professionals, hairdressers, and I kept getting conflicting information about my best colors and my own undertone. I knew that if I was having this problem, many others were probably struggling with the same thing, so I figured I needed to find a professional to help me. 

I took a trip down to Virginia to meet with Melany Carlos from houseofcolour_arlington and honestly, the experience continues to blow my mind!

I made a video about my color analysis experience. I’ll share:
🟣Why I decided to get my colors professionally analyzed,

Let me know if you can relate! 👇🏼

You have an overstuffed closet full of clothes you don’t like, that don’t mix and match easily, and even though you can see that you do in fact have plenty of clothes, you often feel like you have nothing to wear. 

And what’s worse, when you do manage to get dressed, you feel BORED, UNINSPIRED, UNATTRACTIVE, and like you’re just putting on clothes because society says you HAVE to be dressed… but being a nudist would be so much easier. 

If this is you, you are EXACTLY the person I want to help! 

Your wardrobe should not be a place of stress, it should be a place of fun, self-expression, and a tool to help you build confidence!

Today, I want to share with a client’s capsule wardrobe that we put together as part of my Capsule Consultations. No matter where you are in your style journey, I’m confident that I can help you build a wardrobe that you absolutely love.

How do you not get bored of wearing the same thing all the time?”

When I tell people that my seasonal capsules are around 15 pieces, they inevitably ask this question, but to me it never feels like I’m repeating.

Sure, I may wear the same skirt twice in a week, but since it’s styled completely differently both times, it doesn’t feel like I’m wearing ‘the same thing’.

When creating a minimalist wardrobe it’s super important that your pieces combine with different things, and that you can style them in different ways. For example: the same cardigan will look great with black jeans, blue jeans, and grey jeans, and sure, that gives you three outfit combinations. 
But since the outfit formula is the same (top+jeans+cardigan) it will get boring pretty fast. 

Instead, look for a cardigan than you can wear with pants, with a skirt, as a layer, as a top on it’s own, etc. Wearing the same items in different ways will be the key to not getting bored.

In today’s video, I show you many (30+!) Fall Outfit combinations that can be put together with my current 2021 Fall Capsule Wardrobe. I hope that this serves you as inspiration!

🍁🍂 A new season is here, and with it comes a new capsule wardrobe!

I personally don’t start each season with a complete new wardrobe - I bring back old pieces all the time! The way I make my new capsules make sense with older items is by building them around the pieces that I definitely need to bring with me into the Fall. I call these my ‘anchor pieces.’

In today’s video:

✔️I’ll share what my ‘anchor pieces’ for Fall are, and how you can craft a capsule around your anchors,
✔️You’ll see the 16 items that make up my Fall Capsule Wardrobe for 2021,
✔️I’ll share how I decide when to shop for new items, and when to just live with what I have.

☀️A few years ago I had a job interview on what turned out to be an extremely hot August day. I had on a great outfit that made me feel confident: a nice pair of black cigarette pants, a white camisole with a simple flowery pattern, and a blazer in a great pop of color to match. 😎

I was feeling great about the interview until I realized that the air conditioning would have to be off due to sound issues. I didn’t feel comfortable taking off my blazer and having my shoulders exposed, so I made the choice to keep it on… and proceeded to sweat like I was in a hot yoga class for the entire duration of the interview. 🥵

It totally threw me off my game, and I did not get the job.

The right outfit for a job interview can have an enormous impact on your confidence, and it’s a great tool to help you keep your focus and show yourself in the best possible light!

LOVE delicate details & fine fabrics, but HATE the idea of washing clothes by hand? Yeah, ME TOO. 

The idea of washing each piece individually, making my hands all pruney, and getting everything (and myself) wet DOES NOT sound like something I want to be spending my time on.

But the reality is that washing machines can be really rough on delicates, and if you want to preserve your items ‘new look’ for as long as possible, hand washing is the way to go. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I hate doing laundry, so you can trust I found the easiest way to take care of this task with the least amount of effort.

Have you ever tried putting together a capsule for yourself, and it just didn't work, but you don't know why? 😩

Most people start putting together capsule wardrobes from some generic list online that doesn’t consider their taste, lifestyle, or season of life, and that’s just the problem! 

Wardrobes, minimalist or not, are incredibly personal, and what works for one person is very unlikely to work for the next.

“Our fitting rooms are currently closed due to Covid-19.”

I’m sure you’ve seen signs with this message, or heard the phrase from a sales associate in the past few months. You think, ‘Sure, I’ll just grab my usual size and try it on at home,’ only to discover that the piece doesn’t fit you right, forcing you to return to the store multiple times until you do. How frustrating is that?!

Not being able to try on clothes before you shop is a huge inconvenience, but it doesn’t have to take you a ton of time to find the best possible fit! Today I’m sharing 5 shopping hacks to help you find the best fit when you can’t try on clothes. Link is in my bio, or find it by searching “Fernanda How To Know If Clothes Fit You” on YouTube.

What do you wear when it’s incredibly hot, but:
👉 Your workplace or school has a dress code.
👉 You need to protect your skin from the sun.
👉 You don’t like to show your arms or legs.
👉 You don’t like to shave your legs, but are not comfortable showing unshaven legs either.
👉 You are traveling somewhere where you need to dress modestly. 

It can be incredibly tricky to stay cool in the heat and dress with no short clothes, but it’s not impossible! I put together a colorful, yet ‘modest’ capsule wardrobe to help you get some ideas of what to wear when your arms & legs have to be covered.
