If there’s one question I get asked all the time it’s how to create the perfect Autumn Capsule wardrobe – how to create a wardrobe of items that all flow, all work well together and make getting ready in the morning 10 x easier. So here are the items you need to create the perfect Autumn Capsule Wardrobe.
Blue Jeans
I think we can all agree that there is nothing more classic than a pair of blue denim jeans for Autumn – and for all year round for that matter. Blue denim is so easy to style up, style down and pair with numerous things in your wardrobe.
A White Shirt
Another classic wardrobe item that is a capsule staple all year around. A white shirt is such a must in an autumn wardrobe and can so easily be layered up when the weather gets a bit colder.
Chunky Boots
If you follow me on Instagram, you’ll know just how obsessed I am with my chunky boots – I wear them with skirts, dresses, jeans, trousers and go with absolutely everything in my wardrobe.
Cable Knit Jumper
A wardrobe staple that I couldn’t live without in Autumn/ Winter is a cable knit sweater – in Autumn, I throw it older my shoulders for a little extra warmth and in winter I throw it on for a super snuggly outfit.
A Cross Body Bag
When it comes to handbags, I have very specific requirements on what I like – a top handle, a crossbody and it has to be small enough to not swamp me but big enough to fit all my essentials. Everyone will have their own requirements on what they need in a handbag, what colour they prefer and what style they like but a classic cross body is so essential in completing your Autumn/ Winter looks.
A Blazer
I’m sure you were waiting on this one, weren’t you? It wouldn’t be a capsule wardrobe round up without a mention of a blazer now would it?
Wide Leg Trousers
If there’s one wardrobe item that I have fallen in LOVE with in recent years, it’s wide leg trousers – I find them so versatile, so easy to wear and a great alternative to jeans if you’re adverse to a bit of denim. I personally prefer a bit of beige or black to ensure they go with absolutely everything in my wardrobe and can be dressed up or down depending on the vibe.
Racer Vest
An item that carries me all throughout summer and into Autumn is a racer vest – a classic wardrobe staple that can be styled up with anything on bottom and can be layered up when it gets a bit chillier.
A Side Slit Skirt
A clothing item I couldn’t live without in my wardrobe and serves me so well for both casual and dressed up looks – a side slit skirt is so comfy and easy to wear.
A Trench
Of course, I couldn’t finish this capsule wardrobe round up without a classic trench – of course I’m partial to a beautiful Burberry but you can find so many high quality and gorgeous trenches on the high street too!!
