Important Things To Think About

First, it’s important to build the foundation for your summer capsule wardrobe. In other words, ask yourself these questions:

• What will your lifestyle be like during the summer?
• What summer pieces or accessories do you already have on hand?
• What is your preferred color palette?
• Do you like patterns?
• Do you like bold colors?
• What does your fashion budget look like? (In other words, how much are you willing to spend on summer fashion?)

By asking yourself these questions, you’ll get a good idea on how to build your summer capsule wardrobe.

The Basics

Now, while everyone’s style is different, you still need to think about the basics. Here are some of the basic necessities for your summer capsule wardrobe:

• Short-sleeved t-shirt
• Tank top
• Camisole
• Button down

If you’d like, you can add some light jackets or blazers to your summer style. But, layers or no layers, consider any of the following bottoms for your look:

• Denim shorts or jeans
• Skirt (long or short)
• Linen shorts or pants
• Khaki pants
• Leggings

You can also experiment with light and colorful dresses, rompers, and overalls. Whatever floats your boat, go for it!

Don’t Forget The Accessories!

“Summer is about showing off during the hottest season of the year,” says Ezra Ramirez, a fashion blogger at Big Assignments. “Therefore, adding accessories to your summer wardrobe is a must. From sunglasses to tote bags, there are many accessories that you can mix and match with your summer getup.”

With that said, consider the following accessories for your summer capsule wardrobe:

• Sunglasses: No one can deny that sunglasses are the staple of summer, fashionably becoming for the season. So, consider frames like square, Aviator, square, or cat-eye.
• Clutch: For carrying only the essentials for occasions like dinner parties, church, etc., a clutch is the perfect compact handheld.
• Shoulder bag: Shoulder bags like a satchel are great for a nice day (or night) out. Satchels also come with a long strap, so that you can achieve that elevated casual look.
• Tote bag: Going to the beach? Going to work? A tote bag is your friend! Carry belongings in style!
