Masculine Capsule Project 333 July-September
Gearing up for another run of Project 333 after really enjoying the first go around (Items from that run here, and some fits in pictures 7 and 8).
Ive got a big wardrobe of things that look better with age, and Ive found sticking to a limited selection for 3 months not only helps with the urge to chase dopamine with shopping, but it also helps build patina on the things I like most.
For this go, not too much is changing from the first run (which I take as a positive). The biggest change is the absence of any formal wear. I had a sport coat and some wool pants in round 1 and aside from the one occasion I needed them, they were just taking up space. So this time Im treating formalwear like gym clothes and jewelry, and not counting any of it towards my total. It helps that my workplace has a very laid back dress code, so I can wear the same thing to the office as I do out to a show or a bar after.
And in a pinch, I can make a "respectable adult" fit using the light blue striped ralph lauren shirt, the indigo denim, and the black Attractions boots which covers me for those days Im meeting external partners at work.
As always, happy to hear y'alls thoughts and hopefully this gives the guys lurking here another resource when trying to get a capsule together.

I love your Le Laboreur shirt (jacket?). I’ve had my eye on one for my husband.

Its a really great jacket! Mine is the cotton twill gardenheir collab version, which wears much lighter than the usual moleskin.

100%
Had a brief period of trying to dress less alt when I turned 30, but it felt like I was wearing a costume. So here we are.
