Shopping is the best therapy to cheer up almost everyone instantly. But it can turn into a problematic hobby too, where you keep spending money on the clothes and accessories which just looked good on display.
Tell me if I am wrong, but there would be some pieces in your closet which never really worked for you, and you have not worn.
Isn’t it a waste? For me, it is, as earlier I used to spend money on many clothes which I never wore. But as soon as I started thinking about spending money on wardrobe wisely, I discovered the amazing concept called “Capsule Wardrobe.”
In short, the minimalistic wardrobe consists of timeless pieces including some trends. For an example, suppose you have 35 wardrobe pieces by which you can make around 100 outfits.
Amazing! isn’t it?
So, the key things which matter in this minimalist wardrobe are colour scheme and quality. You should have pieces which can stand out and work well in mix and match. These pieces should be well fitted and should be of your style.
Signs why you need a wardrobe update:
-> You feel like you have nothing to wear and your wardrobe is flooded with clothes.
-> There are footwears you merely think of wearing to any event or outing.
-> There are accessories which do not suit your style at all.
-> There are few clothes untouched, you just bought them because they looked good at that time.
Hmmm, enough reasons to go forward for capsule wardrobe concept. Now, you must be thinking that okay, these are some good points but what are the complementary pros of capsule wardrobe?
-> It saves your time as you do not need to stand in front of your closet for half an hour and to think about what should I wear?
-> Once you created the capsule wardrobe, for three months you do not need to shop for clothing and other stuff as you can rock that wardrobe for three months without repeating the same outfit.
-> You will always look well dressed and polished by which you will ultimately get self-esteem and confidence, once you add all the timeless and classic pieces in your wardrobe.
-> This concept will make you effortlessly stylish and will save your time and money at the same time.
Sounds like a plan?
Let’s get into details and discuss the winter wardrobe essentials:
Generally, the winter wardrobe includes tank tops, sweaters, jackets, leggings, scarves, & footwear. So make sure you invest in quality stuff and add pieces such as:
Sweaters and Sweater Dresses:
Leggings and Tights:
Comfiest Scarfs:
Puffer Jackets/Coats:
Wool Coats:
Other than this if you want a few pieces besides basic then you spend on overcoats & woollen shrugs also.
For winter capsule wardrobe, you should have some classic footwears which can go well with almost every outfit and these are:
Tall boots:
When you know you gonna step in rain or snow, these boots will serve the purpose. You can also wear them when your legs need extra warmness.
Ankle boots:
Though the ankle boots are so versatile it goes with almost anything, you can wear these with jeans, dresses, pants, culottes and what not. On plus side, these look cool with skirts and shots too.
Look how versatile ankle boot are:
Pumps:
To be part ready, heels are important, also pumps work where boots can not. Pumps are a good option if you are going to any formal meeting. Where stilettoes are evergreen, you can opt for recent trend which is block heels; these are way more comfortable.
Sneakers:
When the sun peeks in the winter, sneakers comes in handy. These are perfect for casual outings and no matter what season it is white sneakers are a must-have for any wardrobe.
If you carry handbags often then make sure you invest in some nice handbags like a tote, satchel, backpacks, and shoulder bags. Also, choose neutral shades if it is your go-to bag as it will look well with all outfits. You can select the colours such as black, tan, brown, grey, beige, depending upon what colours you wear the most.
