You know that feeling of trying to get ready, hating everything you put on, and then stressing because you have a closet full of clothes and “nothing to wear”?

Okay, well I know why that is AND how to fix your problem so you never have to have that feeling again! The answer? Building a capsule wardrobe!

The reason why you find yourself in that conundrum is because you don’t have elevated basics you love.

The purpose of a capsule wardrobe is to build your closet to have basics that you love that can be styled many different ways for many different occasions.

Building a capsule wardrobe seriously changed my life. I spend WAY less money on clothes, can wear the same pieces I love for multiple occasions in many different ways, and I never stress about what to wear.

If you build a capsule wardrobe, you'll have a more minimalistic closet, endless outfit combinations that work & love everything you own.

What is a capsule wardrobe?

A capsule wardrobe is a variety of wardrobe staples that can be mixed and matched to create tons of outfit ideas! I personally like to work with a color pallet of neutrals--I find it's easier to style neutrals a variety of ways than it is other color pallets. Which gives me more outfit options. I created this blog post to help you create a capsule wardrobe of your own. I've included basics that I love (and a majority of them are under $50!) that can be worn and styled to create endless outfit combinations!

You can find all of these capsule wardrobe favorites linked on my LTK. You can get directly to my LTK by clicking here!

Tops

A neutral pallet of white, beige, tan, and black gives you the ability to mix and match with pants and skirts for countless outfit options!

Sweaters

All of these sweaters are super affordable from Amazon! These styles are so timeless & will add a ton of versatility to your closet--and can be mixed and matched with every pair of the capsule wardrobe pants for endless outfit options.

Pants

The foundation of a wardrobe is the denim. If there is one piece to splurge on, it's these. I chose these flattering pairs from Abercrombie. Not to mention, faux leather pants and leggings are the trend of the season.
