It already feels like summer outside! Although I am just posting my summer 2021 capsule wardrobe today, I have already started to wear many of these pieces. The weather has been just right! Plus, I really love this capsule for summer. The neutrals and subtle colors just feel right.
The summer 2021 season is still on the casual side as everyone emerges from quarantine, and into a post-pandemic lifestyle. We are all still craving comfort, while at the same time, we want to dress up! It’s quite the catch-22.
In order to achieve a comfortable, yet on-trend look, I picked up a few tee’s with trendy touches such as ruching, puff sleeves, and texture. These tee’s were all priced under $50, and feel like comfortable t-shirt’s from the back of the closet. Love that!
Soft and comfortable tee’s are perfect for everyday wear. Plus, these tee’s look very fashionable and hot off the runway. They can easily be paired with skirts, shorts, and jeans! I have also found they are easy to dress up or depending on how they are styled. I love a comfortable tee with a skirt and heels. It gives a dressed up look, yet offers the freedom and comfort of a good ‘ol t-shirt. Perfection!
In order to add a little bit of structure to my summer 2021 capsule wardrobe, I added in this beautiful knit sweater. It has a really pretty knit pattern plus wide sleeves. This sweater easily dresses up shorts for a backyard BBQ or looks polished with a skirt for a party or dinner out. It’s the perfect summer knit top! Love!
Most of my jewelry for summer 2021 is from my spring collection with the exception of this cute little butterfly necklace. Butterflies are a huge trend in jewelry for the summer 2021 season, so this affordable necklace, priced under $20, is perfect for rocking the butterfly jewelry trend this season.

What are looking forward to wearing this summer season?
Stay tuned for my upcoming summer handbag, shoe, and beauty capsules!
We are enjoying beautiful spring weather here in California, so it’s time to dive into my spring capsule wardrobe! Life is still on the casual side this season, therefore, my spring capsule wardrobe is on the casual side. I am storing my high heels and dressier looks while opting for casual, everyday pieces I can mix and match. That being said, I am dying to wear dresses! It has been awhile! I found two dresses for spring which are casual. This means I can satisfy my desire to wear a dress while maintaining a casual look and feel while going out and about. Love that!
For the spring 2021 season, I wanted to make sure my spring capsule wardrobe was comfortable and on trend. Puff sleeves are huge this year, so I found these casual tops with puff sleeves which fit right into the current fashion trends, while maintaining a casual, everyday look. These two tee’s, and this sweatshirt, are perfect to wear with jeans and slides or sneakers. I can go to the supermarket, walk around downtown, or explore an outdoor venue while staying casual and comfortable; yet looking trendy. Love that!
Do you like chains? You are going to find chain integration all over the place for spring 2021. Chains are being sewn onto hemlines, necklines, and offered as chain belts with outerwear and dresses. I love this sweatshirt since it integrates the chain detail trend with a cozy sweatshirt I can throw on over jeans. I love this trend, and this is an easy way to wear it on casual and comfortable days.
Wide leg pants and jeans are also a hot trend. While I love the look of flowing, wide leg trousers this spring, I don’t really have a place to wear them since life here in Silicon Valley is still remote and over video conferencing software. So in order to rock the wide leg trend, I found these fabulous and affordable wide leg jeans for spring priced under $40. These are great for being casual and comfortable, yet rocking the hottest trend in pant legs; the wide leg!
Another trend in denim for spring 2021, is the classic cut jean. While “mom” jeans are a hot trend, and ’90’s denim silhouettes are also hot, they are not flattering. Trust me, I wore them in the ’90’s and they do nothing for your bottom half. This season, I am opting for the classic cut trend which offers a more natural silhouette which is flattering and chic. I love having one option which is premium denim, and a darker wash option priced under $50.
Spring is a season when the weather is changing. So, as you know, we all need a jacket or coat! This lightweight jacket is perfect to throw over a tee and belt. It’s chic and fashionable yet comfortable and soft. This makes the jacket feel casual yet it looks put-together. I plan on wearing it often! One thing to note on this particular jacket, it will need occasional ironing, so if you don’t iron, this isn’t the jacket for you.
All of these pieces mix and match for the spring season. I can’t wait to create multiple looks with these seven items!
This casual black dress is perfect for spring days, and it will also carry into the summer season! It is a casual, everyday dress which is soft and comfortable. I love pairing it with effortless slides and this basket bag. It can also be paired with a cross body bag, soft pouch clutch, ’90’s style shoulder bag, hobo bag, or tote! The only bag I am not keen on with this dress is a satchel since satchels look too structured with it.
I am looking forward to wearing this dress throughout the spring and summer seasons. It’s a great basic that can be paired with any type of jewelry from statement to delicate; depending on personal style. This will be great for outdoor dining too! Love!
I wanted something bright and fun for spring in my capsule wardrobe. Normally, I shy away from orange since it is really bright. There was something about this dress that made me throw out my “stay away from orange” rule. I decided to take the plunge and grab this bright dress for spring. It can be dressed up a little bit more than the black knit dress, yet also be worn casually. I plan to wear it a little bit more dressy for spring for outdoor dining; which is the only activity we can really dress up for right now since most businesses and activities are still closed.
This summer, I can take this dress into more casual territory by pairing it with flip flops and a straw bag. The belt elevates the dress, so on a more casual day, I may leave the belt at home and tie a sweater around my waist or leave my waist belt-free. In order to tone down the print, I am opting for neutral accessories and understated jewelry.
Well, as you can see, my capsule wardrobe for this season is really paired down. California has gone back into lock-down, so I don’t need anything dressy, or overly trendy this season. It appears we will be locked down into January, and since winter only lasts through early February here, there isn’t a need for anything other than a casual capsule wardrobe. I will start to transition to spring in February since temperatures will start to become mild.
My winter 2021 capsule wardrobe has everything I need in an outfit when I leave the house. A cozy sweater, comfortable jeans, and a tee. This ivory sweater is a fabulous investment piece which can be worn for many winters to come. The blue sweater is also an investment, although it’s trendier silhouette lends it to ‘three winter seasons’ max status. The fabulous part is that my blue sweater comes in a variety of colors and it’s on sale for under $100. Love that!
Normally I would incorporate the color of the year into my winter capsule wardrobe, since it’s the first capsule of the year. This year is a little different since I am not a huge yellow fan, when it comes to clothing. I am going to wait until spring to see how to incorporate it into my accessories. When it comes to clothing, I will use the grey as an accent color. If you haven’t already heard, yellow and grey are the color of 2021.
I decided instead of yellow, I would continue with grey as an accent and mix together berry and blue hues for the winter season. These are staple colors in my wardrobe, and I always gravitate towards them no matter the season. So, they seem right for the winter season this year.
