It’s starting to feel like fall! At least in the mornings while the fog is in, once it rolls out, it’s a bit warm outside, but I digress. . .

There’s nothing like the fall season. It is relief from the hot summer temperatures, the start of cozier fashion, and the opportunity to turn off the air conditioner and cozy up in a blanket on the sofa. Love that!

This fall season, traditional autumn hues are hotter than hot, and I love that! Classic fall colors and styles are what make the season perfect. Bring on olive, shades of brown, dark reds, berry hues, and everything fall!

For the fall 2026 season, my fall capsule wardrobe includes staples from my closet such as this navy shirt dress, black jeans, and this beige knit top. I have also added seasonal pieces which include this cozy cardigan sweater, short sleeve sweaters, and soft fabrications such as satin and faux leather. Since leather is popular for the fall 2026 season, I picked up this coated skirt, which mimics faux leather, for the season. Since it isn’t actually leather, it’s worry-free and easy to maintain. Love that!

Shoe capsule wardrobe summer 2026

Shoe capsule wardrobe summer 2026 from top left: kitten heel slides / sneakers / black sandals / studded high heels sandals / black western boots / woven slingbacks /

Touches of gold, woven leather, edgy studs, and comfort thrown in; I’m loving this summer shoe capsule wardrobe!

Woven leather is still huge for the summer season, and edgy details such as studs are making a move to knock woven leather off it’s “IT shoe” pedestal. In addition, western style boots are hot for events when you need comfort and the ability to walk. Touches of gold are also hot this summer season and will continue into the fall season. Love that!

Summer handbag capsule wardrobe 2026

The summer 2026 season is all about classic handbags, the anonymous handbag, vintage IT bags, natural fibers, and some utility. Ultra tiny bags that cannot fit a phone are not a thing this season. Love that!

The runways gave us a throwback to huge, oversize bags. While they are not quite here for the summer season, watch for big bags in the fall. So right now, continue to wear small and medium bags which can hold everything you need on a daily basis.

Logos are so far out, no one can even see them anymore. Steer clear of logo prints and giant, “in your face,” logos. Continue to invest in beautiful handbags which showcase quality and style rather than brand. This is also a fabulous look for your bank account.

Natural fibers are hot again this summer season. Look for straw bags and classic canvas totes. The small canvas tote featured above can be customized with your initials or name. It also comes in various sizes. I have a medium version which makes the perfect summer tote bag. In addition to canvas totes, this straw tote can have your initials, your name, or a fun saying printed on it. Mine says “Jet Set.”
