Fall/Winter Capsule Wardrobe for Girls

Button shirt – check, zip pants-check, tie shoes-check: this independent dresser is starting Kindergarten.  As this preschooler matriculates to grade-schooler, I’ve prepared a capsule wardrobe as a graduation gift.  She can multiply her own outfits because everything goes with, well everything.  And these all-season items can be worn in the heat of Arizona’s September and layered up to tolerate the slight chill of December.  This is my real daughter and her real wardrobe.  Enjoy.

I believe in early fashion literacy.  And the best way to teach these youngsters to avoid one-to-one outfit pairings (ie one shirt shall always be paired with one pair of pants and nothing else) is the liberal application of wardrobe clusters: layering science, signature style compositions, color equations.  Your sweet tween will have mastered creative clothing strategy before her sneaker ever steps foot in the classroom.

Below a shopping list and theoretical application:

That’s more than two weeks of outfits, no repeats, with change left over for lunch money and fruity scented erasers.

What’s in your daughter’s back to school cluster?  Tell me in the comments.
