Then it’s all about mixing and matching these most-wanted items, styling them differently each season, so your looks stay relevant, and as a result, you’ll enjoy the benefits of spending less, whilst always looking great.
In short, the message is buy less, buy better. Having a capsule wardrobe of key staples, a selection of must-haves that can be worn together to create looks you’ll need for all your occasions - for work, weekend and whenever. These should be your most favourite, wearable items that suit you, and fit and flatter you well. This will also ultimately mean that you can avoid owning an excessive amount of clothes, which is less overwhelming for you when getting dressed.
It’s never the wrong time to start building your capsule wardrobe, however at the start of a new season, or at the beginning of a new year, are perfect times to hit reset.
Here’s our top tips on organising your wardrobe, to create a capsule wardrobe:
1. The first step to securing a capsule wardrobe is to audit your current wardrobe.
2. Choose your favourite, wearable items that cover all occasions and that fit you best.
3. Organise your items into outfits.
4. Pack up and store anything that doesn’t currently fit or that isn’t seasonally relevant.
5. See what key items you are missing for this season, essentials that will mix and match perfectly and look to buy what you’re missing.
6. Replace any items you love that are now too worn or have lost their shape or colour.
7. Then after this point, trial the wardrobe for at least three months, you’ll soon see if you’re missing any other iconic pieces.
