Common Capsule Wardrobe Mistakes
and How to Avoid Them
Why is capsule wardrobe building important?
I liken it to what you always keep in your pantry or refrigerator. Without basics like butter, milk, flour, olive oil, salt, and pepper, it is impossible to pull together a recipe!
Same goes for your closet. Without the right clothing basics, it makes it difficult to get dressed every single day. If you get stressed out trying to get dressed every day, you are most likely missing some key pieces!
Here are the top mistakes I see people make when building a capsule wardrobe:
Buying a “fantasy life” capsule. If you are buying for a life you aspire to have, but don’t actually live, your clothes will not get worn! If you live a very casual life, but have a closet full of blazers and trousers, that is not realistic. You need to buy capsule wardrobe pieces that fit into your everyday life. And this will look different for everyone.
