October 12, 2022

While the leaves are falling off the trees and the days are getting shorter, the cold is becoming an everyday certainty again. The energy levels are lower and putting a lot of effort in an outfit is not a priority because "it's going to be covered with a sweater anyway". But who said basics should be boring? This fall is the perfect opportunity to build your dream capsule wardrobe. Here are 7 must-have items for the ultimate capsule.

#1 The versatile sneaker

Everybody needs a neutral, timeless sneaker in their wardrobe to combine with every outfit. You can go for white or black, with a subtle pop of color. It is guaranteed that the sneakers below will never go out of style.

#2 A premium coat

Because your coat is something you mostly take off once inside, it's possible to play a little with the patterns or shapes to add dimension to your outfit.
