The curated closet is a wardrobe that has everything you need and is tailored to your personal style. Unlike a capsule which can be a seasonal or following trend, a curated wardrobe is based entirely on you. The idea of a curated closet has been around for years now, unfortunately, it hadn’t reached me. It did take its sweet time but I love when I discover things that I can implement in my life. Whilst change is not easy most of the time it is necessary and needed.
Regular readers know that part of my goals is to declutter my home every 6 weeks. Well, the last 24 weeks had proved to be a little bit of a challenge due to constant travel. I realized for the last 6 weeks I had accumulated more stuff than I needed and was due for a nice decluttering session. Knowing I would be off to Zambia to attend my friend’s wedding, I made a point of giving away 70% of my closet. I can say I am definitely in a happy place now and can share with you my curated closet. Though for this feature I am only focusing on bags as I have enough to last me a long time.
The Curated wardrobe ~ Bags
You don’t have to search my blog to know that I am an avid traveller and been at it for a couple of years now. I am enjoying it so much that I put together my very own version of 30 countries before Thirty. Aside from travelling I love sharing fashion outfits ideas that I myself have tried or would love to. Those who know me personally know I know my bags and there is no such thing as too many bags.
Recently I did a little shopping and picked up The Office and Errands {similar} bags from JustFab. I am absolutely loving these two bags as they are so fit for purpose and are absolutely gorgeous. The design is devastatingly on point and reminded me of my first love for JustFab as a company. As I said there is no such thing as too many bag hence why I am loving the Tumi briefcase. I am someone who’s always on the go and makes sense to have sturdy and strong bags. The next item I have fallen in love with is a cute on a night-out bag. Well technically it’s a wallet but it’s cute and would look awesome on a night out.
I have many different types of bags but they all fall into four categories. Work {The Office},Night-out, Errands and Travel {The Traveler} bags. Speaking of travel I am a huger sucker for leather luggage and currently, I am still using my MAHI bag.

I love the concept of a curated wardrobe. It’s so much better to have a few quality bags for each occasion than having a load of bags that are quite useless.

I’m fond of sling bags but with more space because I wants to keep my hands free. I also like the errand bag for dumping everything that I need!
T-Nicole Johnson says
I go through different stages with bags. I prefer to use a clutch bag when running errands or doing a date night. When my son was younger I used a errand bag a lot.

A tote makes a great errand bag. The lip clutch is great for a night out

I definitely see myself with an errand bag! More space and super comfortable. The pinky lips one looks super cute.

I never knew that capsule wardrobes and curated wardrobes were different. I need to have a good declutter.
Chelf Chelfdom says
I never thought of capsule wardrobes and curated wardrobes as a different concept. I see what you mean. Im on a capsule wardrobe for the past few years and it has really simplified my life
