That’s the best take on a capsule wardrobe I’ve ever seen. Usually they are SO boring - full of neutrals and plain colours. Yours is lovely. Our wardrobes definitely need to reflect our personality, and following your advice, I think that anyone will be able to build a wardrobe they’ll be happy with, and in any season. I would also love to see something on using other colours as “neutrals” if that works for you. Bottle green is a neutral for me, for example. And I met a redhead at a yarn show who said that teal was her go-to neutral.
I can totally relate. 80-90% Neutrals won't work for me, I love colour and printed blouses specifically. Thanks for your practical advise. I always enjoy your style tips and how you put outfits together.
Absolutely agree! I also love colours and prints, and I am fed up with all the recommendations of neutral capsule wardrobes. I think your advicenis really sound! Thank you!
I’m a print lover and always appreciate you! You are so enjoyable and helpful. I want my wardrobe to reflect me thanks for your help and encouragement.
Love the new thumbnail Maria. I always respect your advice Maria. You absolutely do want to inject your personality into your wardrobe. I look back at my colour dossier you did for me to just remind myself of the variety of the colours I can wear. Xx
Another lovely video. I also love colour, but I'm tending to keep prints for scarves, because I'm petite and there is less choice. Today I wore daisy patterned tights for the first time in years, which is a bit idiosyncratic but I got lots of compliments.
I love adding print and color to my outfits in silk scarves, too. They also add elegance and femininity. I need them anyway, to protect my sensitive neck skin from all that wool and cashmere.🙂
I too am petite and have problems buying clothes that fit. All too often the only items in the petite range are black - e.g Marks &Spencer trousers - or colours which don’t go with the rest of my clothes. I have taken to making some of my clothes as I prefer this to making lots of alterations to things I buy.
Hi Maria, I'm new to your channel, how refreshing to find someone who isn't in the ,boring colour capsule, nice to see colour, love navy ,thank you for the help ,I can see lots of ways I can put outfits together, with colour, definitely subscribing😍
Brilliant! I wore my spring capsule of creams, blues and light grey on a recent spring break and it was SO BORING. Now I know why!!😊 I'm going to dig out my floral prints and add them into the mix.
Yes! Someone who also hates those boring capsule wardrobes of pale neutrals. I've already bought a bunch of cream pieces and shoes for spring. For years I've avoided black but last fall i added several black pieces to go with my prints and wow! that really multipled my options. I think it's also important not to buy too many pieces that are too similar in shape or color. I mean, how many pairs of Capri pants do you really need? Mix it up with different lengths or styles of bottoms or tops to give yourself variety! ❤
Loved this video so much, it really made sense. My problem is organising my wardrobe. I am constantly changing it around, I just can't get it right 🤦🏼♀️
Glad it was helpful! My best advice for organising is either by item and the colour within that or hanging by colour do you have all of the same colour together
What a breath of fresh air. Wonderful video full of great advice. Yes, we do need those neutrals but for me colour is essential and for that I use the colour guide you made for me a few years ago.
I do something similar. I create "modules" of complimentary printed pieces. For example, from your closet, I would group the bright blue trousers, plum top and skirt, pink bottoms, blue printed blouse, and dark printed piece that has plum-pink-cream. Then I'd get all the cream pieces together, and all the navy pieces together. Just from those, I could make 2 dozen combinations. I would then gather all the pieces that I'd prefer to wear with "black and cream" instead: the mossy green, Breton black, Breton red, animal print, etc. and pull some blazers, sweaters, skirts, and trousers in black. Along the rod, I'd hang (from L to R) the printed plum-pink-Tiffany blue pieces, then the navy neutrals that go with them, next the cream pieces (because they go with both modules), followed by the printed pieces that I selected to go with black, and finally, all the solid black pieces. That way my eyes can see the combination possibilities more easily.
Just found your video and wow it all makes sense after years of struggling with bland one colour advice. I’m off to go and sort out my wardrobe thanks 👍😁
I so agree about the typical social media capsule wardrobe, they’re so drab and boring! Most are even worse than your example you made here, because they’re full of black and gray. I love pattern and color, too, they just need to be balanced with some neutral solid items. Plus, I don’t really wear the items in those capsules: jeans, plain t-shirts, black trousers, blazers and moto jackets, sneakers, etc. I prefer dresses and skirt/soft trouser outfits in soft fabrics and colors, and good leather, mid-heel shoes.
Oh my goodness, I'm the Queen of prints. I like to believe that you walked into my 4 closets (yes 4, because I'm a horder) and took a long good look and decided to make this video to help me understand why I have nothing to wear. I have enough tops, pants, skirts and dresses, hats, scarves, handbags and shoes/boots, jackets, blazers and colourful socks to clothe an army and yet I have NOTHING to wear because I have no neutrals other than a few black pants and skirts. I didn't realize that 1) neutrals would help me create a head-to-toe look and 2) neutral doesn't hve to be cream, beige, grey or white, neutral could be a solid colour like pink. By the way, I was watching spring capsule wardrobe videos and thinking to myself how awfully boring they are and everyone looks the same without any personality. It feels as if everyone is copying one person's idea of what spring capsule wardrobe should be and boom a uniform is created for the rest of us. Well, I love prints and won't succumb to that neutral, colourless, lifeless, boring palette everyone is gushing over. Thanks to your video and explanation, I can finally put a capsule wardrobe together that is uniquely mine and showcases my personality. Big THANK YOU for that. I'm definitley subscribing to your channel and can't wait to see the videos on your channel. God bless and keep up the excellent work.
Thank you for your lovely comment 😊 you might find that you only need a few items that will make a lot of your prints and colours work. Look for any common colours within the prints to see where you can overlap 👍
Hi Maria. I am a real neutral lover but this has inspired me to be a bit more adventurous. I really loved the capsule wardrobe from the Lounge as it helped to identify pieces that I have and where there are gaps I was also wondering if u could do something about makeup colours sometime. I remember u did that a long time ago Looking forward to the Style Lounge chat on Monday Margo
That is a really good idea. As our colours change it’s hard not to get confused with what suits young girls on makeup counters don’t always have the right answer.
I think some florals and patterns are aging and remind me of curtains, however neutrals are more youthful . I’m not against patterns but I prefer stripes and geometric designs. You look nice in that olive sweater.
You are old...it's not for everybody ..that's what I love about Maria...I actually started buying clothes with prints after watching her videos a few years ago..I'm 58 years old

Finally someone that is not recommending those boring neutrals 😊 thank you!!!
I love colour ❤️ we need some neutrals but not a whole wardrobe of them 👍
I can totally relate. 80-90% Neutrals won't work for me, I love colour and printed blouses specifically. Thanks for your practical advise. I always enjoy your style tips and how you put outfits together.
You are so welcome! I’m glad you enjoyed it and I’m a fellow colour and print lover 👍
I love prints, too!
The most helpful video i have seen on wardrobe / capsule planning. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks 😊
At last! An interesting capsule wardrobe. I agree neutrals are needed as base pieces but it’s nice to lift them with some colour. 👍
I totally agree!
Absolutely spot on, Maria - thank you for speaking up about this A really great video, so helpful and inspiring with lots of truly useful advice.
This strategy makes so much sense to me. Thank you!
It’s so easy to do as well 👍
It's like magic watching what you can do Maria, thank you.
Wow, thank you!
Absolutely agree! I also love colours and prints, and I am fed up with all the recommendations of neutral capsule wardrobes. I think your advicenis really sound! Thank you!

Thank you. Good advice as always. Helpful to take this on board before I start buying for Summer.
Great to hear! 👍

@@AnitaOHara-q8lI think I need to learn that skill one day. I’m impressed. I have only got as far as minor alterations or customising clothes.
@@kimberlyperrotis8962Yes, I agree. Sensitive skin is another factor to take into account.
Orange is Avery good colour with navy black white grey creme brown amazing
Hi Maria. Love your videos. Haven’t seen you for ages. So good to see you back again. 🌺🌺🌺

True, neutral is the foundation to start from and then bring colour in. Great video, thanks.
Yes! Thank you!
You look thinner and younger!!!! And love and follow your tips ❤

How much sense does adding a few neutral make. Great suggestion. Xxx
So easy too 😀

Love colour, ❤
Me too 👍😊
I don’t even try cream or white bottoms. I will go more khaki or sand.

@@Mariafsadler I have tried both ways, think the colour way looks slightly better & in size order xx

I’m so pleased it has inspired you. Funnily enough I am thinking about adding some makeup colours to the Lounge as a makeup capsule 👍
That is a really good idea. As our colours change it’s hard not to get confused with what suits young girls on makeup counters don’t always have the right answer.
Great ideas and tips! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
lovely!
Take red jacket navy black white etc goes with it
Abstract tops or flowered goes better with plain one colour bottoms or skirts
I think some florals and patterns are aging and remind me of curtains, however neutrals are more youthful . I’m not against patterns but I prefer stripes and geometric designs. You look nice in that olive sweater.
I think it depends on your personality but it’s good we are all different it makes it so much more interesting 👍
Love this!
I’m so pleased 😀
Could you make a video on a large bust
Thank you for the suggestion 👍
Great video. I love your clothes too! Would love to know where you buy them - can't find anything nice at the moment. -
Glad you like them! You might be interested in the capsule wardrobe lounge www.mariasadler.com/style-lounge 👍
You can wear all them but better with plain bottoms
Can you do a how to style video on black satin cargo pants please zara sell them
Would you mind sharing where the red stripe breton is from please
Yes of course it’s from Baukjen which is also stocked in John Lewis
2 bottoms!😂

I had to back it up for my husband to hear🤣Love the humor! So human, relatable relaxed, like friends having a chat 💕

So lovely💋😘😘😘👄👄😘😘💋💋💋💋💋
Thank you 🙏🏽

You need to wear a v neck blouse. Round neck and choker necklace accentuates
your round bosom.
Good I’m happy it does. I don’t NEED to do anything thank you!
I am 70 plus and I hate the flowery granny prints and bizzy paterns they make you look old😢😢😢😢🙋🏼♀️🌷🇱🇺
You are old...it's not for everybody ..that's what I love about Maria...I actually started buying clothes with prints after watching her videos a few years ago..I'm 58 years old
Each to their own we all have different tastes that’s what makes getting dressed fun and do we don’t all look like we are clones 👍
Thank you 😊
All makes sense. Thanks for explaining so well.
