Hi guys, my name is Mel. Welcome back to the channel.
So today's video is going to be the ultimate beginner's guide to building a capsule wardrobe
for fall. So what is a capsule wardrobe? So a capsule wardrobe as defined by Wikipedia
is a minimalist collection of clothes that can be put together in different ways to cover a variety
of outfits and occasions. So the goal here is really to do more with owning less. So I've
put together 12 foundational pieces that you should start with when deciding to build a capsule wardrobe.
A capsule wardrobe centers around classic styles and neutral colors.
They lay the perfect groundwork for when you're ready to elevate your style.
Most of these pieces you probably already have in your closets are just not maximized enough.
Let's start with trench coats. They have been in existence since the 1800s.
It's a piece that will always stay on trend and will never go out of style,
so it'll be worth investing in a high quality one. When it comes to trousers, a good tailoring is key.
The right cut and fit instantly makes you look put together without even trying.
They're perfect for everyday workwear, but also for casual weekends when you prefer
something more flowy and light. And yes, you guessed it, the perfect colors to start with?
Black and white. There are so many ways you can wear a white button-down shirt.
It can be an undershirt, an overshirt, worn as is, tucked or untucked, tie it in the middle,
and it becomes a crop top. You name it, it can do anything. Black and white t-shirts make a great
base for any outfit. They can also double as undershirts for chilly days. White sneakers add a
fresh and effortless vibe to your wardrobe. They're always my go-to choice of footwear, especially on
busy days. Beige cardigans are a staple piece that goes with everything. It's the perfect add-on
layer for chilly mornings and evenings. You can also drape it over your shoulder when it gets warm
midday. A piece that goes beyond season. Black bags provide the perfect contrast to any outfit.
And of course, it's not fall without a solid pair of black boots.
They're a fall must-have that brings instant polish to any outfit. And of course, the black
blazer. Everyone should have one good black blazer in their closet. They're such a versatile
piece that you can use for any occasion. May it be for work meetings, a formal event, or dress it
down with jeans and a shirt for casual weekend brunch dates. There you have it! You just saw
eight sample looks in this video, and if you go ahead and mix and match all of these pieces
together, you're sure to come up with outfits good for a few weeks. I hope you enjoyed, and I'll see
you again next time. Building the ultimate capsule wardrobe. See if I come back to you.
