A capsule wardrobe is a collection of clothing styles that are timeless and can be easily mixed and matched for multiple outfit options. These are neutral closet staples that will never go out of style. Primarily made of white, black, beige/taupe, and grey hues, these items will make getting dressed so effortless all year long!

Shop Tops

Solid colored tops are perfect building blocks for your capsule wardrobe. Ribbed long sleeve or ribbed tanks are staples for any wardrobe and you can easily mix and match them with other layering styles or bottoms no matter if you're going casual or dressy with your outfit. 

Button-Up Top

A button-up blouse will never go out of style. They’re great for work outfits and can also be worn casually with sneakers and jeans. Strategically choose a neutral hue in this closet staple! 

Crewneck Sweater 

Sweater trends can vary from year to year, but a classic crewneck sweater is timeless. Stripes, solids, or colorblock patterns are go-to prints that will stay on trend no matter how much time passes.

Bodysuit

A bodysuit can be an outfit on its own and styled with accessories to dress up or down. It’s also a great basic to have in your closet in fall or winter to layer over with sweaters, cardigans, blazers, and shackets. Choosing a tank bodysuit, long sleeve option, and short sleeve style bodysuit will give you versatility when you’re styling your outfits.

    A solid hue sweater dress in a neutral color is something you can wear for years. Of course, every wardrobe needs a little black dress. A black midi dress can easily be styled dressy or casual. Finally, have a dressy slip option for weddings or other special occasions. 

    SHOES 

    Having a pair of heels, boots, and dressy flats will cover most bases for styling! Throw in a pair of white sneakers and you'll be covered!
