Capsule Wardrobe. Does the idea bring thoughts of constrictive limitations or organised options where everything goes with everything. I recently took on the challenge of curating an Autumn Capsule Wardrobe while only shopping from stores located in Rundle Place, Adelaide as part of #ProjectYou.
Located in the heart of Rundle Mall, Rundle Place is home to many of Australia’s most loved brands. Set over 4 levels, you will find approximately 50 specialty stores that provide a one stop shop for clothes, jewellery, electronics, home wares and food, with a few surprises thrown in.
Being a busy mum that juggles kids and work while trying to include some social fun, sometimes all on the same day, I need a wardrobe that is all about practicality, but can easily take me from day to night with a last minute invite out to drinks. A carefully created capsule wardrobe will give you the confidence of successfully mixing any of your pieces, and help you if you are overwhelmed with closet chaos. It is also a great way to simplify your wardrobe and to dress with less.
I have chosen 17 key clothing pieces and added in a few accessories that will see you through kids assemblies, office days, coffee catch ups and dinners out on the town. I have mixed some high end key pieces together with bargain purchases, and included as many stores as possible, here are my picks…
