How to Build an Outfit When You Feel Stuck (Even with a Full Closet)

If you’ve ever stared into a closet packed with clothes and still thought, “I have nothing to wear,” you’re not alone—and you’re in the right place.

In this week’s episode of Midlife Moxie, Gail and I (Jen) dive into one of the most common style struggles midlife women face: how to build an outfit that feels put-together, confident, and you.

Whether you’re dressing for work, running errands, packing for a trip, or just trying to feel more stylish in your everyday life, this episode is packed with practical strategies, hilarious stories (yes, there’s a cruise packing mishap), and fresh ways to rethink your wardrobe.

👗 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • The 5 easiest ways to start building an outfit—from color to vibe

  • Why organizing your closet into "departments" is a game-changer

  • How to plan a week’s worth of outfits in just 15 minutes

  • Packing tips that help you bring less but wear more

  • Why neutrals matter (especially for travel and everyday ease)

  • How to edit your closet to match who you are right now

  • The power of starting with just one piece you love

We also talk about dressing for your lifestyle—not the one you used to have. If you’ve gone through changes (career, retirement, motherhood, divorce, health, etc.), it’s time to let go of the clothes that no longer serve you and start dressing for the version of you that exists today.
