If you have a closet full of clothes and still have nothing to wear then you're definitely doing something wrong. What is the point of having so many clothes that you can only use a few times because they barely coordinate with each other or they easily go out of style in no time? 

Maybe it's time you heard about a thing called a capsule closet which minimizes the number of clothing items you have but maximizes the ways you can wear them by coordinating them with each other in different styles. 

To own a capsule closet, here are some of the essentials that you need to have: 

#1 A white t-shirt, or more just in case one gets dirty

You can never go wrong with a classic plain white t-shirt, it coordinates with everything! Get a slightly oversized one so that it looks great tucked in some blue jeans or even over some black leggings. 

#2 High-waisted jeans

Since low-waisted jeans are so over right now, opt for having 2 or 3 types of high-waisted jeans, maybe a pair of mum jeans, a pair of skinny jeans and one pair of straight-cut jeans in whatever colour you like. Easily pair them with any t-shirt and some sneakers or maybe a tank top and some heels, and VOILA! The perfect outfit! 

#3 A knitted sweater

Opt for soft coloured knits like maybe a pastel pink, a light camel-coloured sweater or a light yellow sweater. You could have one long-sleeved sweater and one knitted sweater vest to wear on top of a shirt. 

#4 A black t-shirt

If you have a plain white t-shirt, then you must also have a plain black t-shirt. Like the white, it pairs well with literally everything! 

#5 Midi skirts

Currently, A-line and wrapped skirts are in style, so get one of each or get a cut that suits your body shapes. Midi skirts can easily be paired with a white t-shirt or a black t-shirt and you have a casual outfit ready to go, add a blazer over your t-shirt and now you have a semi-formal outfit!. 

#6 A blazer

A black, navy blue or even a soft khaki blazer in an oversized or boxy style would be a perfect addition to your capsule closet. It can turn any outfit from casual to smart casual in no time. 

#7 Leggings

Leggings have honestly revolutionized fashion! Who needs jeans when you can wear something as comfy as leggings and get away with it?! Pair your black leggings with an oversized t-shirt then top that with a long blazer whenever needed and you have 2 different outfits in the bag! 

#8 Tank tops

Just like plain white and black t-shirts, have around 4 to 5 plain tank tops in your closet since they barely take up any space but they literally coordinate with most pants and blazers, just like the plain t-shirts. 

#9 An oversized comfy cardigan

Just like a blazer, cardigans have the ability to make your outfit look more put together. You can opt for a ribbed, chunky or textured cardigan to add more dimensions to your outfit and make it pop. 

#10 A hoodie

A hoodie is a little bit of a mix between loungewear and sportswear but it is accepted as fashionable in this generation, so it's a great idea to have one.
