I saw we were sharing photos from 2016? It was my 11th year as a blogger and creator and I had really hit my stride. In fact, the following year I quit my job to go full time. I look through these photos and remember these outfits. So many I’d still wear (and many pieces I still own!).

As I scrolled through the archives of Wardrobe Oxygen, I saw 2016 was when my family did a cross-country road trip, when I was in an infomercial for a fashion brand, and when I began making regular capsule wardrobes.

I saw in 2016 I shared a lot of political content. I featured a different nonprofit each Friday of the holiday season, offered tips on how to donate anonymously, and that look with the gray ruana at the lake was the day after the election, when I shared my concerns with the future of our country.

So much has changed in a decade, yet so much is still the same. This exercise reminded me of how we creators have platforms and can be financially successful when we use them to speak out. I’ve been a full time content creator and the sole breadwinner of my household for almost a decade and have never shied from speaking up. I may not have the biggest following or make millions, but I do well while also sleeping well at night (or as well as can be had with this government and perimenopause).

#2016 Alison taught me to not be afraid of speaking up and the most fun closet pieces are actually the most timeless. 🧡 #wo2tbt
I was searching music for a song with ducks in it to go with my cardigan and autocorrect gonna autocorrect…

What I wore this weekend to attend a local clothing swap and run errands. A good mix of comfort and joy for this midsize over 40 person!

Recapping Christmas and of course, what I wore…

Christmas Eve day started with a community carol sing-a-long at where I wore an track suit I’ve had for years and my most festive jewelry (including the necklace my mom wore every Christmas).

Christmas Eve the family dressed up for a lovely dinner at my sister’s; I wore a red sequined set I got last year from (fun fact, wore the same skirt last Christmas Eve with a black cashmere turtleneck and tall boots). After, wore the same look to our friends’ holiday party. The sneakers kept us comfy and perfect when we ran to try to catch Santa riding around town on a fire truck!

Christmas morning, opened presents with the family wearing a pair of satin pajamas from I got a few years ago and have worn before for Christmas! I glammed it up with my lucent hoops which were a Christmas gift from my husband a few years ago. This year he got me this badass ring from!

Then Christmas evening, us three Ashpes Girls went to to see a movie together (Marty Supreme). I wore a holiday sweater with barrel jeans.

It was a beautiful holiday with loved ones. Wishing all of you peace and health through this holiday season and into the new year! ❤️
I didn’t think the boots were going to work but Bowser hates having his feet wet or cold. Once he got the hang of them he seemed to appreciate them and enjoyed a longer walk! Oscar on the other hand doesn’t mind the snow and would rather be naked rolling in it. 🐾
In a room of black gowns, be a rainbow 🌈

Attended a black tie gala with friends, decided to dress not for the male gaze but for the 20-somethings to let them know getting older can be pretty effing awesome.

Dress: custom (rip)
Shoes: years old
Bag: years old
Earrings:
Glasses:
Rings: one was my dad’s wedding band from his first marriage, the other was a cocktail ring I bought when I worked at in the late ‘90s. Folks, store your costume jewelry in ziploc bags and they will last much longer!
Since 2018 I’ve been wearing this polka dot ball skirt to host Thanksgiving. There’s no need for a new look for every occasion; if you shop slowly and thoughtfully you can create signature looks that are perfect time and time again.

(We took off 2023 and 2024 due to the passing of my mom; this is our first year back at it)

A long skirt is great when hosting; you don’t have to worry about cute shoes, you’re covered up if you have to crawl under the table to grab a napkin or spill, and hello deep pockets!

I’m thrilled Talbots came out with a very similar skirt this year with the same fun polka dots; comment LINK and I’ll send you the deets (it’s 50% off today and comes in Misses, Petite, Plus, and Plus Petite!)
It’s not stylish or financially savvy to buy a new look for every occasion or every holiday season. I believe in creating a holiday capsule wardrobe of separates you can mix and match for a range of events, wear beyond the season, and look forward to pulling out again next year. Don’t call it wearing the same thing over and over, it’s creating signature style and that is incredibly chic!

This capsule collection is now on sale and from a range of retailers offering quality and reasonable price points. Everything is available up to at least size 18, with much also available in plus size and petite lengths!

Comment LINK and I’ll send the article I wrote about this capsule that has not only the ways to shop this look but also styling tips so you too can have big style with a smaller closet!
