By now, most of you have heard about the Capsule Wardrobe trend. The idea that less is more in your wardrobe. Instead of having a closet full of clothes (that you probably never wear), you select a few essential pieces that don’t go out of style; creating a mini wardrobe. The average capsule has 20-30 pieces and last for 3 months. You just mix and match those essential items to create new looks everyday! Obviously this makes getting dressed super easy, but it also saves so much money, because you’re not shopping for clothing as often!
Using this idea as a jumping off point, I wanted to create an ‘Accessories Capsule’. A grouping of accessories that you can wake up and throw on everyday and feel put together. No guess work. One of the biggest things I hear at my Trunk Shows, is women that say “I never wear jewelry, I just don’t know where to start.” This is my favorite. I understand, when your looking at a table full of Statement Necklaces and Arm Parties, it’s intimating to women who just don’t know where to start. That’s where the jewelry capsule can help.
How to create a Jewelry Capsule:
Start with a delicate Necklace; I love any piece that tells a story. Think about an engravable or an initial piece. Then add in light earrings; A thin hoop, delicate drop, or studs. Add one bracelet to layer with your everyday watch. If your day to day style is casual, think about adding a leather wrap bracelet. If it is more dressy or in a business setting, add a bangle. Finish the look with a ring or two.
