My winter capsule wardrobe draws from my holiday capsule as I still need to add some Mocha Mousse to my closet! This soft pink hue will blend well with any shade of medium to light brown I incorporate into my wardrobe during the new year. Love that!

Of course, black is always my go-to neutral, but in 2025, Mocha Mousse, and similar shades, will make a great alternative to black; especially as we move into the warmer months, and soften up our looks.

These pewter boots are super comfy and lighten up my look when I am wearing black. I am also addicted to these soft bucket bags we are seeing everywhere. Love!

Here are my current winter essentials as we move from the holiday season into the winter season:

Here are some Mocha Mousse inspired pieces I already own, or are on my wish list for the new year:

Thanks for stopping by, and stay tuned for winter trend reports coming soon!

The holiday season is short and sweet, so my capsule wardrobe for the season is also short and sweet. I have four key pieces which can be mixed and matched into several outfits, making it versatile, and also great for traveling during this festive season. Love that!

I love a good sparkle during the holidays, and this sweater offers the perfect amount. The sparkling silver stripes allow it to be festive enough for evening yet understated enough for daytime wear. This sweater paired with jeans is the perfect casual, daytime holiday look. Love!

Of course, for dressy casual occasions, or warmer weather, this sparking black top paired with jeans and heels is the ideal mix of celebration vibes and effortless casual. Grab a faux fur jacket from the archives and its casual party ready!

Have I mentioned how comfy this fabulous skirt is? This skirt offers a fun twist on a classic silhouette with this liquid leather (faux leather) fabric. It’s soft, easy to care for, wrinkle resistant, and looks amazing. Paired with a sweater, it is a fabulous cool weather, holiday look. With the black sparkling top, it is ready for any holiday party invite you RSVP to. Love that!

Handbag capsule wardrobe fall 2024

Fall 2024 handbag capsule wardrobe from top left: caramel top handle bag / black shoulder bag / dark red small hobo / black hobo bag / east/west satchel / neutral small tote /

I love the fact that beautiful, high-quality handbags are still important in fashion and street style. Logo bags are still being stored in the back our closets, so this fall season, we get to wear handbags we love with small brand emblems or no logo at all. Love that!

Handbags for the fall 2024 season include hobo handbags, small totes, east/west bags, north/south totes (I have one on my wish list), and classic shoulder bags. Doctor bags are making a comeback too. Lastly, we are also seeing an emergence of box totes in varying sizes. I have one on my wish list too!

In addition to silhouettes, neutral hues, black, shades of dark red including burgundy, and olive green are hot for fall. We are also seeing more suede this season, but for me, I would ruin a suede bag on day one. I just know I would spill something on it or set it down somewhere. If you think you can wear suede incident-free, go for it! For me, I plan to stick to regular leather.

So, this fall season, these are the bags from my collection I plan to have on regular rotation. I also hope to add two more, a north/south tote and a small boxy tote.
