Spring Essentials For A Capsule Wardrobe

The Classic Structured Jacket

A spring essential for your capsule wardrobe includes a perfect little jacket. It’s that elusive layering piece that can easily transform a look. It has more structure than a cardigan but less so than a blazer. It’s also perfect for the temperate spring weather. Not too heavy so that you overheat, but just enough to keep you warm if there’s a slight chill in the evening. I love to style mine (#7 in black) with anything from a tee and jeans to a dress and heels. The pieces I’ve picked below can also add texture and interest to an outfit. Notice the frayed edges on jackets #7 and #8. The gold buttons on jacket #3 as well. Small details like these can easily elevate any look while staying classic.

Structured jackets are an easy layering piece that adds instant polish and elevates your outfit. They’re versatile enough for day or night and are a capsule wardrobe essential. The pieces I’ve featured below are high-quality, classic styles, in neutral colors. Investing in a high-quality piece, classic piece ensures that it will last forever in your capsule wardrobe. Choosing pieces in neutral colors also allows your capsule wardrobe to do its job and make your life easier; neutrals blend easily with most things in your closet. Especially when it comes to a piece like a jacket, which can be worn from season to season, year after year, choosing something versatile is so important.

Adding a structured jacket to an outfit is easy when you know your jacket will work with the majority of your wardrobe. Jacket #2 for example is in a pattern but in neutral colors so it would still work with many pieces in your existing wardrobe. Luckily, there are many options out this spring to choose from. I’m sharing my favorites below for you!
