Excuse my ignorance, but what is a capsule wardrobe? Is it the basic essentials? I've just aired my summer wardrobe, and packed the winter clothes. I could cry looking at the pathetic collection of clothes for summer! I am loads of assorted tops (which don't all go with bottom pieces!); about 3-4 skirts, and two pairs of jeans carried over from winter. I find it really difficult to get trousers to fit me (here in France), and also shorts. The French summer clothes tend to be really casual, feminine dresses and tops, and assorted pants: long, 3/4 and short.
Living in the mountains where everything is really casual and outdoorsy, I need to invest in some sports clothes that are suitable for walking and hiking; and also for going out to a BBQ or evening meal! Very difficult! I was happy with my winter wardrobe as I had some good black pants and jeans, and all the tops went with both. I think I actually prefer dressing for winter over summer!
