What’s A Capsule Wardrobe

With the start of each new season, I like to think about certain pieces I can wear consistently throughout the season to look stylish and chic. Of course, I turn to French women for inspiration in my wardrobe and to help with this Parisian-inspired summer capsule 2024.

Parisian women always look stylish, classic, and timeless, regardless of season. They stick to classic, neutral pieces, don’t rely on trends, and can make a simple outfit look polished and elevated.
