The perfect capsule wardrobe exists and is built with only eight garments

The halftime season is just around the corner. The new collections for winter are beginning to fill the windows, but creating suitable looks for the season in which it begins to cool down but is still not completely cold is not an easy task. Buying responsibly is complicated and pockets suffer. It's the perfect time to give the famous capsule wardrobes a try.

A capsule wardrobe is one that is made up of a few easy garments that allow many combinations with each other. To create it, it is necessary to think in advance what style each one has, with what patterns you feel most comfortable and, above all, with what colors you want to build it.

The most common colors to create a capsule wardrobe are neutrals, such as black, white, navy blue, gray and beige. However, it is important to allow yourself to add a point of color, the one that favors us especially or we like for some reason. In this sense, a proposal that matches the trends of the moment and favors both blondes and brunettes is apple green. Yes, barbiecore pink is also an option.

A well-known reference to a capsule wardrobe or at least a minimalist style is Tamara Falcó. See her Instagram wall: the Marquise de Griñón creates all her looks from jackets, oversized shirts, jeans and pleated pants. But how many pieces does she include? The list is short: with eight well-chosen items you can create different looks for every day of the week, and still have some left over.

Belts, hosiery, exaggerated jewelry and footwear are key to elevating each of the minimalist looks in this capsule wardrobe. And what about scarves, that marvelous garment that can be worn around the neck, on the head, as a top or as a pareo-style skirt.

In the accessories you have to look for color and above all quality. In the collections of firms such as Naulover, Yves Saint Laurent or Hermés, accessories are capable of adding distinction to any outfit and have so much character that they combine and completely transform any outfit.
