How to build a capsule wardrobe

What is a capsule wardrobe?

Basically, it’s a mini wardrobe made up of versatile, quality pieces that you can mix & match for multiple occasions, events and seasons. Some define it as a limited selection of interchangeable clothing pieces that complement each other.

How do I start?

1. Clean out your closet 2. Pare down your wardrobe 3. Find what you're missing

1. Clean out your closet

What items have you not worn in more than 6 months? Typically this is a good starting point since every 6 months or so the weather changes.

2. Pare down your wardrobe

This includes dresses, skirts, jumpsuits, tops, pants… pick your staples. You can start by picking 3-4 items from each category that are your GO-TO items and go from there. Pieces like chunky knit sweaters, leggings, favorite pair of black pants & those jeans that fit JUST right.

3. Find what you're missing

As you’re going through your closet, note any items that you might be missing. Maybe a black leather jacket, blazer, pair of work trousers? That way you can plan out any additional purchases.

Here are some capsule items that I suggest

A blazer

I recommend a couple of blazers because they are so versatile. Another item you can dress up or down and wear throughout any season.

LBD

The little black dress. We all need that ONE dress that we can pull out of our closet when we’re feeling bloated or just not our best & it instantly gives a confidence boost.

White Bag

Peacoat or trench coat

An item that is great for most seasons and can pair with a hoodie or a dress & heels. Always looks stylish and timeless.

the jeans

You know those jeans that snatch the waist, make the booty look good and you know no matter what are going to look good (and be comfortable). Grab a light and dark wash & splurge a little since they’ll never go out of style.

White Bag

Slip dress

The slip dress has never gone out of style because it is a classic piece that makes every woman feel like a million bucks the minute she puts it on.
