The capsule wardrobe concept is trending for valid reasons. It saves you space, money, and time as you have fewer pieces to store, buy, and select from. The best part is that you can hone your creative skills daily by mixing and matching the available stuff to create new ensembles. Not surprisingly, women with and without the minimalist mindset are going the capsule way. But doing so in winter is a tad tricky as you require more layers to beat the chill. However, you can achieve more with less by investing in the right pieces. Let us share some stylist-recommended tips to create a perfect capsule wardrobe this winter.

Check what you have

The first step is to assess your current belongings and decide on the changes. Consider it a chance to declutter your wardrobe and eliminate stuff that does not fit and looks outdated. Besides getting rid of things you do not need and want, prepare a wishlist of the missing ones. But remember to take a minimalist approach because your collection must comprise only the staples. At this stage, you are ready to go shopping for your new winter capsule wardrobe.

Think about the weather

Since the weather is icy cold, you must stick with the warm essentials. Of course, you will need all the warm stuff for winter, and no short sleeves and swimsuits. But the meaning of staples may differ according to the local variables such as minimum temperatures, rain, and snow in your area. The capsule collection for someone up north will not be the same as for someone living in Florida.

Prioritize warmth, not thickness

Typically, a winter wardrobe has lots of warm clothing like long-sleeve tops, sweaters, jackets, and coats. But you will not want to look like a bear with heavy layers throughout the season. Stylists recommend prioritizing warmth instead of thickness while creating your capsule closet. Try luxe fleece as it offers the best of both worlds with its plush feel, lightweight, and immense warmth. The best part about the fabric is that it is anti-pill, so it looks new over the years.

Choose a cohesive colour scheme

Winter colours are often dark, with hues like blacks, grays, tans, and blues dominating the wardrobes. But you must think beyond the neutrals while creating a capsule wardrobe because it must have a fair share of brightness. Opt for brighter shades like pinks, reds, and greens to add a pop of colour to your ensembles. You can pick colourful items like fleece jackets, puffer coats, scarves, and caps.

Consider your current lifestyle

Your current lifestyle is another factor to consider while picking the elements of your winter capsule wardrobe. For example, you may prefer warm and comfy loungewear if working from home or spending most of your time indoors with a baby. Likewise, working women must have enough formal clothing to wear to work, while party hoppers should invest in relevant stuff like LBDs and high heels. Also, remember to choose versatile stuff that easily transitions from work to the weekend. Adding something for the holidays is also important.

Building an ideal winter capsule wardrobe is easier than you imagine, provided you choose wisely and embrace the right mindset. Follow these tips to create a perfect one this season.
