A capsule wardrobe is a closet full of items that can be mixed and match to create various outfits. In this post, I talk about the must-have summer capsule wardrobe staples to have and what to look out for when shopping around these pieces.
Tops
The must-have tops of these seasons are linen shirts, bodysuits, and t-shirts.LInen shirts tend to be more breathable due to the material. When shopping for one choose neutral colors such as beige and white. They can be styled as beach coverups, paired with fancy linen pants for a classic summer outfit, or with shorts for an errand look with your friends. Bodysuits and t-shirts can be styled with various bottoms in your wardrobes such as shorts, slip skirts, linen trousers, and jeans.
Bottom.
When shopping around for bottoms this summer opt for jeans, denim shorts, and linen pants, and if you are not a fan of these opt for slip skirts and denim skirts. These pieces can be styled in various ways for example a slip skirt styled with a bodysuit and a linen blazer with either heel or white sneakers can be a casual office look or brunch with your friends’ outfit.
Dress
In my opinion, this is one of the must-have pieces of the season if you are a big fan of dresses in general. When shopping for one opt for one that is comfy, flattering, and with good material such as cotton and linen. The dress should be able to be styled in various ways.
Outerwear
During the summer season, the weather tends to be warmer and chilly in the evenings thus you should opt for a classic denim jacket, linen blazer, and a leather jacket. A linen blazer can act as your everyday office coat and your leather jacket incorporated into your night outfits such as styled with a slip dress for a date night look.
Shoes
Always opt for comfortable shoes for this season. This includes sneakers, sandals, strappy sandals, and espadrilles.
Bags
When shopping around for a summer bag opt for a classic tote bag that is able to carry every essential item that you need. You can also opt for a shoulder bag and a wicker bag to still with your summer dresses for your next beach outing.
Swimsuits
Always opt for swimsuits with a classic style that can also act as a bodysuit when styled with slip skirts, shorts, denim, and trousers.
Accessories
I cannot stress enough how it is important to invest in good accessories for the summer such as sunglasses, scarves, and jewelry. The accessories help elevate your outfit and show your personality. When buying accessories opt for styles that are classic and timeless so that you can be able to incorporate them into your summer outfits every season.
