A Summer Capsule Wardrobe is your ticket to easy styling options to make getting ready every day a breeze. Looking for a closet refresh for the warmer days ahead? Feel good in linen matching sets or cotton summer dresses that can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. Whether you’re hanging poolside, planning a family beach day, or enjoying a night out, here’s your guide to creating the perfect summer capsule wardrobe with neutrals and pops of color to make you look and feel great this season.
Summer Capsule Wardrobe
Summer days in Queensland can be sweltering, so I always opt for breathable fabrics. A linen matching set, straw hat paired with a raffia bag and you’re ready for the beach. When it comes to dresses, I look for cotton or linen blends to stay cool.
The best thing about a capsule wardrobe is that once you have the basics, you can accessorize and add pops of color to switch up your look.
Here are some cute styles to add your capsule wardrobe from Petal & Pup.
Summer Staples
Dresses – A sundress is a must-have wardrobe essential in your summer capsule. I also like having something a bit more dressier you can wear at night. I think this one is the perfect resort vibe.
Basic Shorts – You can’t go wrong with denim or linen shorts during Summer. Black or neutral goes with everything.
Matching Sets – I love getting matching sets because you can easily switch out your top to create an entirely different look.
Basic Tops – For my summer capsule, I chose a white top and a red one. I’ll be wearing these with denim or matching bottoms for a classic look.
Shoes – I’m a mum of two and I live in sneakers and sandals, but I added a new pair of black heels to my wardrobe this season.
Straw Hat – Don’t leave home without your sun protection!
Accessories – For your summer capsule, you don’t have to limit the number of items, especially when it comes to accessories. A new handbag or tote, sunglasses, or belt can completely transform your look.
Swimsuit – During Summer, a one-piece can also double as a top. I found some cute ones here.
Summer Capsule Wardrobe Recap
If you already have the basics, add something bright or a new handbag to elevate your day-to-day looks this Summer. A sundress, basket bag, and sandals is an easy outfit you’ll feel great in and wear on repeat all season long.
