If you remember last fall I shared the fundamentals of a wardrobe capsule. Establishing a capsule wardrobe – wether it be seasonally, or even monthly, allows you stretch your closet, get the most use out of each piece, and truly appreciate the pieces you’ve chosen to wear. And from a financial standpoint – prevents the overspend.
With the seasonal change and increase in warmer temps, it’s understandable that Fall’s capsule may not provide optimal clothing options. It’s time for a shift in your closet! Today’s share brings you a Spring capsule wardrobe consisting of 28 pieces. I’ve broken them into five categories, with countless styling options. Much like Fall’s capsule, I’ve stuck to several of the basics, but have added in a few of the season’s trends for styling creativity.
I’ll note, capsules are often seen color coordinated. Stock images don’t always provide a true representation of color. I have seen all of these pieces and truly believe this Spring capsule below creates a beautiful wardrobe you’ll love this season. I tried to stick to neutral tones and chose classic stripes, chambray and florals to allow for versatility. Once you’ve established a capsule, the mixing and matching is what makes the effort worth while. You’ll discover the true stretch of your closet and experience all the benefits of capsule development.
Here’s a breakdown of what’s included in the Spring capsule, with links to the items and corresponding retailers.
