How to Mix Patterns & Textures for Chic Winter Dressing | Ten-Item Capsule Wardrobe



I'm using my outfit as a case-study for how to mix pattern and texture in an elegant way.



I love to mix patterns in the same color family to create a subtle interest in an outfit. I also mix the various textures of suede, leather, and wool in today's outfit.

Featured in the video:
basket weave dot dress (similar)
cropped black twist tee
fleece-lined tights
riding boots (similar)
plaid coat (similar)
aviator sunglasses (linking similar here)
Louis Vuitton handbag (I am listing various satchels from Nordstrom here)
My phone case is Casetify

Also mentioned
Thursday Boot Captain boot
faux fur scarf



I start with a layering look that is a favorite of mine: cropped tee (or sweater) over a dress. This gives the impression of wearing an elegant skirt without the awkward cut-off at the waist. The riding boots add a nice height to the outfit.



Adding my favorite plaid coat brings a new pattern and texture dynamic to the outfit beautifully.



The final addition of accessories with sunglasses and printed handbag, round out the outfit.



I encourage you to take inspiration from historical periods and literature. I love the Victorian Era as well as Sherlock Holmes. Those two combinations are the inspiration for today's look.

I hope you enjoy today's video.

#bookreview "Madam Chic: Rất thần thái, rất Paris" _ Jennifer L Scott. Cuốn sách thứ 3 của tác giả Jennifer L Scott viết về những bài học về sự thanh lịch cô học được từ Madam Chic sau 1 năm ở Paris. Nói về cuốn sách đầu tiên "20 bí mật sành điệu của Madam Chic", cuốn sách khiến mình mê mẩn năm 2018 với vô số những bài học hữu ích và cách viết rất gần gũi, cuốn hút. Mình giới thiệu cho các bạn mình đọc và bạn nào cũng thích mê. Đến cuốn sách thứ 2 "At home with Madam Chic - Thanh lịch từ những khoảnh khắc đời thường" vẫn hay nhưng không bắng cuốn 1, và đến cuốn thứ 3 này thì mình cảm giác tác giả viết hơi lặp lại so với 2 cuốn trước. Tuy nhiên, đây vẫn là cuốn sách đáng đọc của các "quý cô" để trở nên thanh lịch và thần thái. Mình thích những bài học mà tác giả đem lại. Bình thường, các cuốn sách về phong cách khác tiếp cận chỉ về phương diện thời trang, lối sống tối giản, còn Jennifer L Scott đưa ra một vấn đền hoàn thiện và toàn diện hơn. "Thần thái bao hàm nhiều thứ hơn vẻ ngoài chỉn chu và cách hành xử đúng mực. Nó còn là cách ta trau dồi chiều sâu của tính cách, thứ đến từ việc giữ cho tâm trí sắc bén, hãnh diện trong mọi việc ta làm và giúp đỡ người khác. Cam kết phát triển bản thân một cách sâu sắc hơn, trải nghiệm mỗi ngày của chúng ta cũng sẽ ý nghĩa hơn." Và đặc biệt thanh lịch và thần thái không chỉ khi bạn xuất hiện trước ai đó mà ngay cả khi bạn ở một mình, khi đi ngủ, ngay cả khi bạn thấy mệt mỏi và chán nản trước những tình huống khó khăn. Đó là điều quan trọng bởi bạn trở nên tốt đẹp hơn vì chính bạn chứ không phải "biểu diễn cho ai đó xem". Thần thái cũng là sự bình tâm, sự lựa chọn những bình yên và không hạ thấp mình. Năm mới thần thái thì rất là tuyết vời. Cám ơn @bloombooks_camhungsong đã mang Madam Chic về Việt Nam. #booklover #books #bookstagramvn #bookstagram #madamchic #jenniferlscott #bookish #newyear #newbook

Comment of the Week
Earlier this week, I published a blogpost explaining the frustrating ad situation on my blog. Google has placed "auto ads" on my website, which is why you sometimes see so many banner ads. I have since disabled auto-ads, but some of the ads are still popping up. It is a mystery to me!

Heather wrote, "I'm impressed with your integrity that you even care what the reader view looks like. When I click through to other blog posts, usually for a recipe I found on Pinterest, it is obvious that there are a LOT of bloggers who do not care that the reader view is downright unpleasant."

Thank you very much, Heather. Your experience as a reader does mean a lot to me and I appreciate your comment.

I would love to know how you like to mix color and texture in the wintertime. Share your tips and observations with us and your comment could be chosen as comment of the week.

Comment of the Week
Kym M. writes, "As eclectic Charlotte Mason homeschoolers we have been doing a sort of chic assignment for years. We have a poet, artist, and composer of the month. We study a Shakespeare play each quarter and we read a lot of classics."

Kym, I love this! We do something similar. And parents do not have to homeschool to do this with their children... they can enjoy this type of enrichment any time with their family... that's the wonderful thing.

Thank you for joining me for this outfits of the week edition. I hope you have a happy new year celebration! Let me know how your Christmas was in the comments below.

With love,

Jennifer

Ten-Item Wardrobe Winter Updates + Packing For England



I'm sharing ten-item winter wardrobe updates in today's video as well as packing for an upcoming trip to England. I'm trying to pack minimally while still preparing for the extreme change in weather.



As we move into another change in season it's time to retire clothing from the prior season and make plans for what's new. For winter, I am retiring the Everlane Japanese picnic dress and the Target Wild Fable dress. These dresses performed really well this past season. I am retiring them due to their fall colors. I will pack them away and look forward to bringing them back next fall.

I have retired two core items and am bringing one back in. I have decided to bring back the LL Bean dot dress as it is very versatile, a dark winter color, and easy to layer for the colder months. Even though this is not the most exciting change, I do feel happy and comfortable with this returning piece. As you do the ten-item wardrobe, you will become content with less.

Now let's talk about packing for England. For a 3 week trip I have decided to bring only five core items: one pair of dark denim jeans (JLS10 for 10% off) and four dresses (LL Bean dress, midnight floral dress (linking similar), Velvet plaid dress, and J.Jill charcoal wrap dress).

These are the extras I am bringing... remember extras compliment your core items:
Two cashmere sweaters (Mott & Bow red cashmere code JLS10 gives 10% off and Everlane camel v-neck cashmere), 3 pairs of pajamas, including the Leimere cashmere pajama , Mersea travel wrap (for the plane), and fleece tights. I am also bringing a faux fur infinity scarf (linking similar here). I would have loved to bring my SKYE Coraline trench (Jennifer20 for 20% off ) because it goes with all of my outfits, but it is too lightweight for the heavy winter weather in England. I will look forward to wearing that trench when I get back to California.

The dress I'm wearing in today's video is by Draper James and the earrings are by Ana Luisa (code Jennifer10 for $10 off).

Natural Home with Jennifer


The Natural Home with Jennifer feature will be moving to my blog. When I find good natural products to recommend to you, you will be able to find them here. Today, I wanted to share this excellent line called, SQUEAK, which can be found on Amazon. SQUEAK is an affordable cleaning line that has the most excellent natural scents derived from essential oils. They are very transparent with their clean ingredients and I love how accessible they are to everyone. Check out their all perp line for excellent all-purpose cleaning.

Comment of the Week
Carolyn M. writes, "The most common comment that I receive if I dress nicely on a regular day is an inquiry as to whether I have returned to working outside of the home. When I mention that I am still an at home mother, I mostly get a look of confusion, like why would a woman dress up if she is a homemaker?"

Hello Carolyn, I loved your comment. Every time you answer that question you plant a seed in someone's mind about the importance of dressing well daily, regardless of what you are doing. You are bringing dignity to your home life! Thank you.

I hope you enjoyed today's ten-item wardrobe video. Share your ten-item wardrobe updates with us and your comment could be chosen as comment of the week on the blog. See you soon!

The Biggest Style Critique I Get from My Viewers



I've been sharing my ten-item wardrobe on YouTube for over 8 years now. For the most part, I receive kind comments, even if my style differs from that of the viewer. My intention with sharing my outfits on YouTube is to showcase how a ten-item capsule wardrobe works in real life and also to inspire people to look presentable always.



Every now and then I get a specific critique on the way that I dress. It's pretty much the only critique I get, which sparks my interest. What is behind this critique? And will it change the way I dress going forward? Watch today's video to find out.

My earrings are SKYE Odette 18K gold pearl earrings Jennifer20 for 20% off.

My dress is by Everlane .

Ndërkohë që përktheja “Madame Shik”, herë në mënyrë të natyrshme e herë duke ia imponuar vetes, nisa të vija edhe unë në jetë disa nga këshillat e madamës Shik. Për shembull, në libër është një kapitull shumë interesant për rrëmujën... Kur nisa të përktheja librin, isha si Xheniferi, studentja amerikane, por që pak nga pak po shndërrohem në një madamë Shik. Që kur përktheva atë kapitull, nuk kam ngrënë më në tabaka përpara televizorit. Kam nxjerrë pjatat që ruaja për festa dhe çdo ditë e kam një festë të vogël, me lule të freskëta në tryezë. Përveç këtyre, kam zhdukur nga sirtarët çdo komplet pizhamesh e rrobë shtëpie jo të denjë, bashkë me shumë rrangullina, sende që kisha vite që nuk i përdorja; gjëra që merrnin pluhur, bënin rrëmujë dhe nuk më linin t’i gëzohesha një shtëpie të pastër, ku gjithçka duhet të jetë në vendin e vet. Kam mësuar të bëj tualetin ujë e sapun dhe çdo herë që gjendem përpara dollapit duke menduar “ç’të vesh sot?”, dora më kap gjithmonë një fustan të mirë, nga ata që kisha vite që i mbaja në varëse dhe i ruaja për ndonjë rast. Madama Shik më mësoi se nuk kam pse pres, rast i mirë është çdo ditë Foto 📸 @henrikoci.com_ #keshillangamadamechic #madamechic #botimetliving #jetobukurjetomeliving #dailyconnoisseur #jenniferlscott

Comment of the Week
Nancy F. gives us an update on The Chic Assignment in her household: "I have never heard of Caspar David Frederich. However his works are so touching and hauntingly beautiful. I personally fell in love with the one called the morning. Also I have not been able to stop staring at the one called the Abbey in the Oakwood. Now the Bach piece that you featured is one that I have listen to many times over and have decided to re-fall in love with it. One thing that I will definitely be making homemade from scratch is my homemade hot cocoa peppermint meringue cookies that my fiancé and future mother-in-law love. I have definitely changed up my seasonal skin care. The main thing I have changed is I have went to a thicker facial moisturizer that is by ponds. I’m using more luxurious thick creams to combat my dry skin"

Thank you for sharing your findings, Nancy! I look forward to the check-in so we can discuss the assignments more.

Thank you for joining me today. Are you ever criticized for the way you dress? What are the chief complaints you deal with and how do you handle them? Let us know and your comment could be chosen as comment of the week on The Daily Connoisseur.

One Week of Outfits from my Fall Ten-Item Capsule Wardrobe



Welcome to one week of outfits from my fall ten-item capsule wardrobe. I like to document what I wear on the channel so you can see how a ten-item wardrobe translates to real life. This week starts off warm in California and heads into chilly rain toward the end of the week so you will see a range of adaptability with my fall wardrobe in today's video.





On this warm Sunday I'm wearing the Everlane Japanese picnic dress, a cropped cardigan (similar), the Kork-Ease wedges and carry my LV tote handbag. My art deco phone case is linked here. On my nails: Londontown shade Honeymoon (code JenniferS gives 25% off first-time orders).


The black cinch-waist tunic dress paired with leggings linking similar here and here, and my leopard sandals makes this a chic and casual Monday. My earrings are Ana Luisa (code Jennifer10 gives $10 off first orders)


On Tuesday I'm wearing the oversize tunic tee (linking similar here) with my Mott & Bow jeans (code JLS10 gives 10% off), leopard sandals, Rachelyn Jewelry earrings, and Ana Luisa necklace (code Jennifer10)


On Wednesday I'm wearing the Target Wild & Fable burgundy floral dress with a tan cardigan and my nude patent sandals. This worked really well for a breezy day at the park.


On this rushed Thursday I'm wearing the floral midi dress (linking similar) with Ana Luisa earrings and nude patent sandals. A velvet scrunchie is in my hair.


I am wearing the Draper James dress with navy ballet flats and Rachelyn Jewelry earrings for Friday's special interview.


For a mom's brunch on a rainy Saturday, I'm wearing the J.Jill charcoal wrap dress with the plaid scarf and riding boots.

//Có gì trong 2 cuốn sách về Madame Chic?// Phụ nữ - đặc biệt là phần lớn phụ nữ châu Á, thường vì quá lo toan cho gia đình, bận bịu với sự nghiệp - chồng con mà "ngó lơ" bản thân. Bà của chúng ta như vậy, mẹ của chúng ta cũng như vậy, thế nhưng tôi tin rằng chúng ta có thể khác đi. Có thể chỉn chu, duyên dáng mỗi lúc bước chân ra đường; lại cũng có thể làm ra một mâm cơm đủ đầy, sắp xếp gọn ghẽ lại căn hộ ấm cúng của riêng mình - bằng cách đọc và làm theo "Madame Chic". Nhẹ nhàng, ngọt ngào nhưng vô cùng hữu dụng và thực tế - chẳng phải tự nhiên mà 2 cuốn sách "20 bí mật sành điệu của Madame Chic" và "At home with Madame Chic" của Jennifer L. Scott lại trở thành cuốn "bách khoa" của tất cả cô nàng muốn bước chân vào con đường "thanh lịch". Thanh lịch từ lời ăn tiếng nói, từ kiểu đi dáng ngồi, từ cách chọn trang phục cho đến cách pha một ly trà tại nhà. Với lời văn và giọng điệu đặc trưng của một người phụ nữ nước Mỹ sống giữa thủ đô hoa lệ của Pháp, trong những trang sách của mình, Jennifer L. Scott kể cho độc giả nghe về "Madame Chic" (quý cô thanh lịch) - không phải "làm màu" hay cố tỏ vẻ, mà là đúng chuẩn "thanh lịch kiểu Pháp", cùng gia đình cũng không kém phần "chic" của cô nàng. "Madame Chic" bộc trực, tử tế nhưng cũng vô cùng tốt bụng và dịu dàng. Cô có thể đảm đương mọi công việc, vun vé mọi ngóc ngách trong căn nhà mà vẫn xuất hiện thật xinh đẹp và sành điệu - biết đâu là màu son hợp phù hợp, đâu là chiếc váy vừa vặn với bản thân mỗi khi bước chân ra đường. Nhiều người nói series "Madame Chic" là cẩm nang những tips để trở nên sành điệu và thanh lịch. Nhưng tôi lại cho rằng, 2 cuốn sách này của Jennifer L. Scott là chìa khóa mở ra nút thắt - khiến các quý cô của thời hiện đại sắp xếp lại bản thân và chỉnh đốn cuộc sống thiếu cân bằng của mình. Bởi bạn biết không, thanh lịch không chỉ là lối sống - mà còn là một nghệ thuật sống nữa!

Comment of the Week
LaDonna on Facebook writes, "So I read the Madame Chic series and started following you a few months ago. I’ve started implementing a lot of your lessons from Madam Chic. My husband knows that I’ve been on a “French girl kick” but he has no idea about your Madame Chic series. Everyday he has been telling me how nice I look or how beautiful I am and today he said, “You know, I’m just going to have to start calling you Madame Texas Chic.”
I laughed and told him about you and Madame Chic. I thought you would get a kick out of this. I really appreciate all you do to make the world a more genteel place!!!"


LaDonna, I truly enjoyed the recap of your Madame Chic transformation. Please keep us updated. Your husband's response made me smile :)

Thank you for joining me today. I would love to know how your ten-item wardrobe is coming along.

Ten-Item Capsule Wardrobe Talk-Through | Fall 2019



I'm talking through my fall ten-item capsule wardrobe in today's video. This year saw many new pieces, more than any in the past due to the reset I was desiring after having worn maternity/ nursing clothes for so many years.



I hope you enjoy today's video.


Core item no. 1 Everlane dress (I am also providing a link for a budget option that is a perfect dupe). The color and length of this dress are my favorite aspects of it. It's perfect for fall and will also look great with an oversize sweater and riding boots.


Core item no. 2 Plaid dress by Velvet by Graham & Spencer (earrings are by Ana Luisa Jewelry code Jennifer10 gives you $10 off your first order). Navy croc ballet flats are no longer available, linking similar here. This dress reminds me of the Duchess of Cambridge. I just love it! Chic, simple, and regal.


Core item no. 3 Draper James denim chambray shift dress paired with leopard sandals. This dress is so effortless. I love it.



Core item no. 4 wrap dress by J.Jill is great for the fall and winter seasons and will be fun to accessorize. Extras: brown riding boots (linking similar). I am so glad I walked in to J.Jill . I am looking forward to wearing this dress during fall and winter. It will be fun to style and accessorize.


Core Item no. 5 Burgundy floral boho dress from Target. extras: tie-waist sweater, Blondo ankle boots. This has a wonderful bohemian vibe and is so far the most worn item in my capsule wardrobe. I love wearing this particularly at home. It's so comfortable, yet presentable.


Core item no. 6 Black button cinched waist tunic dress (Zara in store) linking similar here and here. Extras: black leggings, ballet flats. I've worn this twice so far and each time have been so happy with it. It also has washed well.


Core Item no. 7 Loft blouse I am very happy I decided to go with my gut and purchase this blouse. I bought it at a significant discount and had to ask myself if I was getting it because it was on sale, or because I love it. Well, I love it! It's very flattering and makes jeans look so presentable.



Core item no. 8 Midnight blue floral dress linking similar here and here. This was from my extreme budget wardrobe from two years ago and I still love it. I'm looking forward to styling it creatively this fall and winter.


Core item no. 9
Mott & Bow dark wash denim jeans
use code JLS10 for 10% off first time orders extras featured: tan tunic tee is from Zara, but I am linking a similar one, and tan pashmina (linking similar)
These particular jeans fit so well and I love the crop.


Core item no. 10 Mott & Bow black denim Extras: Mott & Bow cashmere v-neck. Use code JLS10 for 10% off first time orders for Mott & Bow.

Also featured in the video: my phone case is by Casetify . My eye makeup is by The Organic Skin Co. (shade burnish).

Comment of the Week

Noelia writes, "I think this is your best 10 item wardrobe to date. I love every single piece in it. I also just wanted to say a massive thank you to you for bringing the 10 item wardrobe into our lives. I’ve been watching your videos for years but only a couple of months ago I discovered your blog. I started reading it from the beginning and then I bought your book “Lessons from Madame Chic” where you also talk about the 10 item wardrobe. And then, I “got it”. I finally understood what you have been saying all along. I have never had many clothes but I used to save my nicest ones for “best” and used to wear just cheap or old ones on an everyday basis. This Autumn I have decided to really give it a go and, 3 weeks in, I know this is it for me. I will not go back to buying because it’s on a sale or because I “need” to have it. I will be more mindful of my purchases now and will wear all of my clothes because every day is that “best”. Thanks for all of your hard work about this. I really appreciate it. 😊"

Noelia, your comment was so encouraging and the most liked comment on YouTube. I am so excited to hear how your ten-item wardrobe journey goes!

I hope you enjoyed today's talk-through of the ten-item wardrobe. I would love to know how your wardrobe is coming along. Let us know and your comment could be chosen as comment of the week on the blog.
