1. Download the app
2. Add your clothes
Once you’re logged in and are ready to go, look at all of the clothes hanging in your closet for this season and begin adding them to the app.
Look through our clothing database, then tap on the items that look similar to yours.
Add all the clothes from your newly simplified closet to your closet in the app.
Some of your items may not have a perfect match in the database. That’s okay!
Don’t worry about a perfect match, you can always come back later and replace with a photo of your real item
3. Do a second edit
The second edit is all about making your capsule more cohesive.
Compare the number of items the app says you have in each category (jackets, tops, etc.) to the number of items recommended in your custom closet in the Your Style section on the website.
Ask Yourself: Are there any items that have a color that you only own 1 of? Are there any “maybes” or pieces that don’t mix well with the other items in your capsule? **
Pull outliers out of your closet. You don’t have to donate them, just store them away in another bin that’s easily accessible.
4. Create your color palette
Refer back to the Your Style section to review the colors that work best for you.
Choose a few main colors and write them in your Capsule Planner PDF
Write down your neutral colors
Write down your accent colors
After the second edit, your color theme should be pretty clear in the app AND in your real-life wardrobe.
5. Write down your weekly activities
Take a few minutes in your Capsule Planner PDF to write down your weekly activities like work, weekend, date nights, church, or working out.
Take note of the dress code for each activity: Can you wear jeans in your workplace or do you have to be dressed up? When you’re at home, do you wear joggers or jeans?
6. Turn your activities into 2-3 mini-capsules
(If you really only want or need 1 main capsule, you can skip this part. We won’t tell anyone. Promise.)
Break down your weekly activities into mini-capsules in the app by adding in the clothes you would wear for that occasion.
Name your mini-capsules (the most popular names for mini capsules are “work,” “staying at home,” and “going out”)
You can now switch back and forth between mini-capsules in the app to get new outfit ideas for your weekly activities.
