The Power of a Capsule Wardrobe
At 40+ Style, we encourage the concept of a capsule wardrobe, especially for each new season. A capsule wardrobe allows you to have a collection of clothes, shoes, and accessories that can easily be mixed and matched, eliminating the "I have nothing to wear" dilemma. It's all about creating versatile outfits that make you feel confident and stylish.

Building Your Fall 2023 Capsule Wardrobe
Now, let's get down to business and build your Fall 2023 capsule wardrobe. We've categorized the essentials into tops, sweaters, jackets and coats, pants and jeans, dresses and skirts, and shoes and boots.
Tops
For tops, opt for a silk shirt that can be dressed up or down. Look for t-shirts with longer sleeves, graphic prints, and vest tops for layering. Don't be afraid to play with different colors and patterns to add variety to your looks.
Key pieces: COS Oversized Pure Silk Shirt, COS Pure Mulberry Silk T-Shirt, Mango Gradient Ruffled T-shirt, Mango Blackberry Silk Top.
Sweaters
As the weather cools down, cozy sweaters and cardigans become essential. Choose different neck styles to suit your body shape and look for luxurious fabrics like cashmere. Fall colors are a great source of inspiration.
Key pieces: COS Chunky Pure Cashmere Sweater, Ckikiou Ribbed Boat Neck Sweater, Mango Stripe Sweater, Mango Zip Sweater.
Jackets and Coats
Transitional seasons call for versatile outerwear. Choose blazers, moto jackets, and trench coats that provide warmth without being too bulky. Opt for Fall shades like burgundy, mustard, or terracotta to add a touch of elegance to your outfits.

Key pieces: Mango Metallic Straight Leg Jeans, ANINE BING Carmen Pants, ANINE BING Carrie Pants, AllSaints Aleida Ronnie Mid-Rise Tapered Trousers.
Dresses and Skirts
