7Step 3: Create a Capsule Wardrobe
A capsule wardrobe is the secret to packing light for long trips. The goal is to mix and match a few versatile pieces to create multiple outfits.
Tips for a Capsule Wardrobe:
- Stick to neutral colors like black, white, beige, and gray, which pair well together.
- Choose lightweight, wrinkle-resistant fabrics.
- Include 3-5 tops, 2-3 bottoms, and 2-3 layering pieces (e.g., a cardigan or jacket).
- Limit yourself to two pairs of shoes: one for walking and one for specific activities or dressier occasions.
