Steve Jobs did it. Mark Zuckerberg does it. Even Barack Obama was into it.

What it is? The capsule wardrobe.

We're all about decluttering our lives—both physically and mentally—to make room for the things we really care about (like work!), and this week, Sara Weinreb, who is the founder of IMBY, an ethical fashion startup, joins us from New York City to teach us how busy entrepreneurs can build the ideal capsule wardrobe (around 40 pieces).

Not only is having a capsule wardrobe better for the environment than hoarding loads of fast fashion, it makes life a lot less stressful because, well, less (laundry, decision-making and time getting dressed) is more.

About Sara
Sara is a necessary troublemaker, who has spent her life respectfully challenging the status quo. With a background in supporting hundreds of entrepreneurs in building businesses that make a positive impact, she launched IMBY as a frustrated consumer struggling to find versatile, fun, and affordable clothing that was made ethically. With one foot in the tech scene and other in the ethical fashion space, Sara also consults to social entrepreneurs, facilitates design thinking workshops, is a co-founder of the Ethical Fashion Retailers Network, and serves as the entrepreneur in residence at AlleyWatch, the pulse of NYC's startup and tech.
