| Office Casual Stiped Tank (I have worn this item a few times, it makes me feel professional and classy, my purchase is a little body-hugging, but it makes me feel warm, Cynthia Crosby, Lifestyle Blogger, and Entrepreneur) |
 |
| Dress, that is perfect for upscale, dining, meeting, or just hanging out with friends, I purchased the pink dress it is a deep mauve pink with gold buttons in the back. I love it. I have not worn this dress yet, but it is one of my fave, capsule wardrobe purchases. |
 |
| Crew Neck Sweater This sweater is so comfortable and chic, I love it, it makes me look mature as a writer. |
 |
| Style Upgrade, I love the look and feel of this V-Neck Crew sweater, it is a classic style statement for casual elegance. I would purchase this item from Old Navy as a style upgrade. |
 |
| When I purchased this skirt I had so many choices in mind, on how to style the skirt, what combination ensemble pieces I would wear with it, and what look and feel would suit me. I have not worn this ensemble yet, but I have a new pair of tights, I am thinking about wearing with this item. |
 |
| Classic Shawl, perfect over the shoulder item to help keep warm, with beautiful styling, My purchase is light pink! |
 |
| Another take on the Classic, Crew Sweater, I love this look, casual, laid back, and trendy. |
 |
| Keeping warm in the winter is important, this is a new fave, I purchased and have enjoyed wearing it. |
 |
| I purchased a light grey, matte version of this vest. The fest is super chic and stands out as an ensemble addition that is worth its wear.
A Perfect Capsule wardrobe includes everyday wear items that are ready-to-wear, versatile, and multi-pairing, these items can be arranged into several looks. Capsule wardrobes are perfect for creating seasonal looks, and style choices for the season, or new lifestyle change.
Having a few standout pieces, such as the casual-dressy dress featured in my collection, will ensure your capsule wardrobe is not boring, and you won't get tired of your selection. I decided to purchase a new capsule wardrobe, to save space while traveling, and in-between places to stay, to save money, and to relax and focus on myself, as I transition into new lifestyle changes.
I have enjoyed my capsule wardrobe choices, some are closet staples, and others such as the featured vest is an added item for winter months. When it's not cold enough for a coat, or winter jacket, but a vest such as the one I bought from Old Navy is a perfect vested ensemble pairing that is warm, casual, chic, professional, and stands out, in changing season and environment.

Great tips, I’m as plain Jane as they come. I really need someone to tell me what goes with what, this is some nice stuff!
ReplyDeleteI agree - I usually go for easy match up clothes. I store some of it in different colors and then match it with different denim - so seems like I have so much clothes. - eliza
ReplyDeleteYou do have pretty good suggestions for a capsule wardrobe. I should try setting some up too. Shopping for clothes this way is more economical and would make it look like you've got a lot just my mixing and matching tops and jeans or skirts. Thanks for the style inspiration!
ReplyDeleteI have a friend who did this! A capsule wardrobe is so smart and thrifty. And I don't think others notice that you are wearing a lot of the same things. So fun!
ReplyDeleteNice mix of stuff. I love the Team USA Beanie! Cool style.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great selection of choices that mix and match really well. I love the jumpers and the skirt.
ReplyDeleteThese are all great selections. I always on the look out for some casual smart pieces that can fit in with chic wear.
