Planning is critical to achieve success in everything that you do, especially if you are trying to make a (drastic) change in your life.
And let’s face it, going from the standard western (jam-packed) closet to a curated, 30-something pieces wardrobe isn’t an easy affair for any of us.
From purging your current wardrobe to defining your style, budget and favorite brands, the to-do list is long, which makes the planning process only the more critical.
Which is why I have compiled in this post the top 4 planners to help you build your own capsule wardrobe from scratch.

Here are the 4 TOP free planners online
1. The Popular Planner from Unfancy
Unfancy is a source of inspiration for women looking to build a minimalist wardrobe.
un-fancy.com was born in 2014 “out of a desire to find (her) style and curb (her) mindless shopping habit”. Back then, the blogger behind Unfancy, Caroline, had a “closet full of cheap clothes but ‘nothing to wear’.”
After experimenting with a minimal closet for a full year, she found her sweet spot: a structured, curated closet of 37 pieces. She’s documented her journey since then and provides all kind of useful information from (light) packing guides to seasonal outfit inspiration.
The Planner:
Practical, clean, yet action-driven, unfancy’s planner is probably one of the most popular planners out there.
