Introduction
Tired of staring into a closet full of clothes yet feeling like you have nothing to wear? You’re not alone. The average American woman owns 300 pieces of clothing but only wears 20% regularly. This is where the magic of a capsule wardrobe comes in. A capsule wardrobe is a curated collection of essential clothing items that can be mixed and matched to create a variety of outfits for any occasion. This minimalist approach to fashion simplifies your life, saves you time and money, and reduces decision fatigue.
