Fall Capsule Wardrobe
Classic style is in my bones. On social media, I often get a lot of sassy comments complaining that my shirt or shoes are old and not shoppable but I have no qualms with that. I don’t buy items that will only last a season; I want pieces in my closet that I’ll reach for over and over again. However, I’m a wardrobe maximalist–I have a lot of clothes and I won’t try to hide that. BUT because I had so many items in my closet for YEARS, I can help you build capsule wardrobe.
My hope when I buy an item is that I can wear it more than one way–think about that before you buy something (dresses can be tough, in this case, but just something to think about).

Plaid blazer
I can’t think of anything more perfect for fall than a plaid blazer. So, it just doesn’t go out of style and you’ll wear through winter. Moreover, see more plaid blazers to love:

Suede boots
The bootie really emerged in the early 2010s and never looked back. And we love her for it. I love an ankle, mid, and knee-high suede bootie–pick your poison! Other suede boots to love:

Cozy sweater
This could be be the biggest no-brainer on the list. Of COURSE cozy sweaters are part of a fall capsule wardrobe. Get ones you love and you’ll wear them forever. More cozy knits to love:
Maxi dress
A great dress CAN be versatile. Throw a sweater on top or even a jacket. Wear it with flats or boots. You CAN get mileage out of a great maxi dress. See more gorgeous maxi dresses:

We’re sill flats obsessed. Also, we’ll wear them as much as we can until we have to wear socks and tights! See more flats here:

So, trench coats are my one of my favorite, classic pieces (see my ode to the trench here) and they’re perfect for transition weather! See more trench coats here:
