Create your capsule closet today with these 6 steps

Have you always wanted to have YOUR capsule closet?  

A capsule closet is a set of key pieces that allow you multiple combinations and timeless style. The perfect solution to get more with less.  

We know this idea has everything to do with you, so we bring you 6 simple steps that will allow you to have your capsule closet today.  

STEP 1 - Destroy 

Let's speak the truth. We know, and you know, that most of the pieces you have in your closet you don't even wear. Either because they no longer fit you perfectly. Or because you never know how to put them together. Or because they are not your style anymore. 

Don't keep waiting for them to come back because they most likely never will. And they may be missed by someone who identifies more with them! 

The rule is simple: haven't used them for more than a year? Then it's time to get rid of them and free up space. You can donate, recycle, sell on Vinted. On the way back, you still bill some back to replace with pieces you'll actually use from now on. 

STEP 2 - Opt for quality 

The old formula you already know and it never fails: cheap gets expensive. You wear it twice, it gets bored. Or it shrinks. Or it loses color.  

So many things you already know so well when you buy fast fashion. 

And on top of that, slow is fashionable and Portuguese brands have been creating beautiful and exclusive pieces. Besides, with a small footprint. You get a more sophisticated closet. More yours. And, to top it off, you save the planet! 

STEP 3 - Bet on neutrals

Neutrals are the new black! Colors that are easy to combine. Pieces that solve any morning doubt. Seriously, you know that a neutral can save the day! 

Define your must-have pieces and create a collection with a palette of neutrals. It is one of the secrets of any super stylist.   

STEP 4 - Focus on the essentials

The irreplaceable jeans. A black dress, the secret weapon of any superwoman. A white blouse. A more sophisticated piece. Like our Passion! 

Those absolutely indispensable pieces. Easy to wear. That adapt to any occasion.  

You change the shoes, the accessories, the hair look, and that's it! A new outfit. Always with that style. You are more than ready. 

STEP 5 - Give it a trendy touch

The secret is always in the balance. The essential pieces are a must-have. But then there are those that put a smile on your face just by imagining it! 

The colorful ones. The extravagant ones. The exclusive ones. The ones that are on Vogue's top. The ones that make you feel unique and special. These have to be part of it. 

STEP 6 - The party is welcome!

Special pieces for moments of celebration are well needed! And more and more! Well we are in need of relaxation.  

And here, the rule is number 3. The perfect balance. At least three options. A dress. A blazer-pants set, or blazer-shorts like Dara! And possibly a fancier blouse or sweater.  

Perfect you already are. You just need a little extra stimulation!
