A capsule wardrobe for the woman you are now

A capsule wardrobe isn't about minimalism for its own sake. It's about clarity. When the choices are good, the choices are easy.

Here's the rhythm I come back to, season after season: one excellent blazer, one pair of denim that fits the body you have today, two tops that make you feel like yourself, one piece of something soft, one piece of something structured, and shoes you'd actually walk a mile in.

"Buy less. Choose better. Wear it with intention. That's the whole philosophy."

That's it. That's the spine. Everything else is seasoning.

If you're rebuilding a closet - after a body change, a life change, an empty nest, anything - start with the spine. The seasoning will find you.
