I first discovered capsule wardrobes while planning for a trip to Paris a few years ago (the same trip Jason and I got engaged!). Since that trip, I have been a firm believer in the power of a streamlined wardrobe and I love how versatile a few carefully selected pieces are. As you know, a smaller wardrobe serves me year-round and I'm able to stretch a core selection of pieces across all four seasons by changing up my shoes, accessories and outerwear. This method of dressing comes in handy for my day-to-day life but I love it even more when preparing for travel - especially when that travel comes with short notice like my recent trip to Italy where I had only 4 days to pack! Rather than turn down the amazing opportunity to travel abroad on such short notice, I was able to jump at the offer and pack a well-rounded travel wardrobe without the stress. In today's post I'm sharing everything I packed along with exact links when available. In the coming days, I'll be sharing more about the individual looks I wore but in the meantime you can see them over on my Instagram.
