Going Back To The Basics

7 must-haves in every capsule wardrobe

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.

#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. ​

#3 The perfect T-shirt
