Universal items in your wardrobe: how to choose a capsule wardrobe for winter in 2023

Versatile items in your wardrobe

How many items are included in a winter capsule wardrobe? Do you have a capsule wardrobe for each season? How do you even start putting it together? If you are asking yourself these questions, then you have come to the right place. Below you'll find a winter capsule wardrobe 2023 checklist, as well as the best style tips.

If you're interested in minimalism and want to make some changes to your lifestyle to live more mindfully, or simply want to declutter and get rid of unnecessary items, creating a capsule wardrobe is a great step to start with.

There is no set number of items you should have in your closet, as a capsule wardrobe looks different for everyone. This is because we all have different styles, wants and needs.

Most experts who create capsule wardrobes are sure that 30 items (including shoes) are enough for 1 season.

White cotton long sleeve T-shirt

During the colder months, you can replace the basic white t-shirt (which almost everyone has) with a long sleeve t-shirt. You'll love Everlane's styles because they're soft, comfortable, and look really good. You can wear them with a cardigan or on their own for a wardrobe staple that never disappoints.

When it comes to the basic pieces on your winter capsule wardrobe checklist, expert advice is to have at least a couple of neutral-colored shirts on hand. When one of them is in the wash, you can put on the second one.

Wool overalls

If you are one of those people who is always cold, you find it very difficult in winter, so it is very important for you to have quality warm clothes. Last winter, the trend was bodysuits made from pure wool. This winter, you can add another jumpsuit like this to your wardrobe, but in a different color. And then they can be combined with each other.

White cotton turtleneck

Experts advise simply moving a white cotton turtleneck from your fall capsule wardrobe to your winter one, as they consider this item an absolute must-have not only for the colder months, but all year round. Some of the best basic turtlenecks are made by Everlane.

Brown cotton turtleneck

As with long sleeves, it's good to have options when it comes to closet staples like turtlenecks. By adding brown, you can diversify your neutral palette and be able to easily create even more stylish looks.

Wide oversized shirt

Don't put off that stylish button-down shirt just because winter is here. This is the perfect piece when you want to create a chic, elegant look. You can choose a loose fit so you can wear it over jeans or tucked in without sacrificing comfort. You can wear it with skinny jeans, suede heeled boots, a neutral blazer and a hooded coat. This is just an idea, but you can build on it and then add your own touches to the image.
