Build a Capsule Closet for Chic, Stress-Free Styling

Less clutter, more killer looks (and zero outfit meltdowns).

Gone are the days of the hoarder; let me Marie Kondo your closet into a capsule wardrobe that actually works harder than you do. All you need is a handful of staples and a little creativity for endless looks.

Yes, yes, I know — it's just a simple white shirt and denim. But this so-called ‘basic bish’ combo is the foundation of every chic outfit to come. Classic, clean, and uber versatile. Meeting? Lunch? Errand run? You’ll still look like you planned the whole thing.

Tuck that same white shirt into your go-to shorts — linen or denim, doesn’t matter. Add a vintage braided belt (yes, you’ll see this baby on repeat) and flat sandals, and you’re golden. Wear it around the city or to the beach, shirt unbuttoned with a cute bikini underneath. It's simple styling done right.

Who says denim-on-denim is only for cowboys? Yee-haw, partner — I'm fully in with this look, even down to the shoes! Any yes, it's the same denim from look #1! Capsule closet, nailed.

Finishing strong with a mini skirt and waistcoat combo, cinched in the waist with (you guessed it) that vintage belt. The best part? Both pieces work perfectly with earlier looks: mini skirt with tank or shirt, waistcoat with wide-leg pants or denim. Options = endless.

The pairings are really endless, and with a handful of items, you can create a month's worth of outfits. From casual to dressy, work to play, your capsule closet will keep your brain and wardrobe happy. Less clutter, more vibe checks for weeks on end.
