Spring is coming, and with it comes a change in wardrobe.
As the days become warmer and brighter, lighter fabrics and colors become more prominent.
But how can you transition your wardrobe without breaking the bank? Enter the capsule wardrobe.
A capsule wardrobe is an organized collection of clothing items that work well together to create a variety of looks while still maintaining a cohesive aesthetic.
Let's take a look at the essential components of a spring capsule wardrobe.

The Basics
Every capsule wardrobe should begin with some basics.
Think timeless pieces like blazers, a good trench coat, jeans, crisp white tops, black dresses, and so on.
These items should form the foundation of your spring wardrobe; they should be versatile enough to dress up or down depending on the occasion but also stylish enough to stand out from the crowd.
Choose classic cuts in neutral colors like black, navy blue, white, and gray for maximum versatility—you'll be able to mix and match these pieces with ease all season long and even with your winter capsule!
