capsule wardrobe

If your wardrobe since mid-March and up until now has been anything like mine, it pretty much went like this: Yoga pants, yoga pants, pyjamas, yoga pants, sundress, yoga pants, sundress, and back to yoga pants again.

And so now, with reality looming once more, I have decided to make life easy – and slightly more stylish again – for myself by putting together the perfect autumn capsule wardrobe.

I am talking a few key pieces that are all easy to combine with each other, and that will literally work whether I am working from home, actually in the office, dropping the kids off at school, meeting a friend for a sneaky drink or heading to my local park’s farmer’s market on the weekend.

In other words; the perfect autumn ‘mum uniform’ – here goes:
