Creating Your Capsule Wardrobe
Capsule wardrobes are a must, especially if you struggle to put together outfits. A capsule wardrobe is a selection of garments that compliment each other, and they’re essentially the classic pieces that are the “base” of your wardrobe. Capsule wardrobes are necessary to create the ultimate timeless wardrobe, curated especially for you. You will truly have endless outfit ideas, year-round.
Color Scheme
Start with neutral hues for the basic foundation pieces. Then, add color depending on particular styles that you adore, and the hues of the season. I’m obsessed with earth tones, as they look stunning with any pop of color. A gorgeous color combo I’m loving right now is cream, and hot pink styled with gold jewelry.
Invest in High-Quality
I feel so strongly about this one. So often, many who would rather purchase multiple fast fashion pieces that are cheaply made, end up spending the same amount or more on them rather then investing in a classic, yet high-quality piece that you can depend on for years down the road. Always invest in a piece that you know is going to be around for years to come through wear and tear, over pieces that will bust a seam when wearing for the fifth time.
