Classic Style Tips for Women's Fashion

Video Transcript

"Now here are some more guidelines that are really great to follow when you're building your first capsule. Classic styles work the best, as I said. But another thing is, if you want to - say - put a jacket into a capsule. And you want to maybe add another jacket. Maybe put two jackets into your capsule. Make sure you keep one, a favorite, like a blazer style. But then the second jacket, you don't want to have two blazers in there. It can kind of get a little bit boring. So what you want to do is maybe put something a little different. A little bit more of a like say a cropped jacket. That would be fun to add into your capsule just to give yourself a little more variety. When you're building the capsule, you also have to worry about the weight of the fabrics. You don't want to put in, say, a summery gauze skirt into this capsule. It's basically knits and lightweight wools. That just wouldn't work well. You would want to save that for your summer capsule. Now colors are very important. You need to stick with three colors to start building your capsule. For instance, the capsule that I'm going to show you today is based on three colors. Another thing you want to make sure you do is make sure the colors that you choose are your best colors. You never want to put a color in your capsule that looks bad on you or that you hate to wear. So make sure you've got your best colors. And the last but not least is, every piece of clothing in this capsule must work with at least three other pieces within the capsule. Really important rule. So each garment must work with three other pieces in the capsule. And I'm repeating that because that is one of the key elements to building a capsule wardrobe."
