Affordable H&M Winter Capsule Wardrobe

While trying to balance statement and comfort, I came across the capsule wardrobe. This type of purchasing guided me to hunt for items with the most versatility. As a first-time mom, this has made getting ready each morning seamless. If your closet is full of statements and you’re looking for staples, this affordable H&M Winter capsule wardrobe will help guide you.

Capsule wardrobes are different for everyone, as personal style is just that – personal. Overall I tend to stick with elevated basics that are easy to wear. Instead of opting for trends, I do my best to eye up fresh takes on classic styles. Winter is also my favorite time to layer. I shared some tips on layering and reviews on basics I love too.

Now that you have the details, let’s get into your H&M Winter Capsule Wardrobe!

1. Mock Turtleneck Sweater

The mock turtle looks elevated without the steep price tag. And if you’re anything like me, I’m sure you have a cream sweater that has seen better days. I always try to swap those out of my closet first each Winter,

2. Rib-knit Half-zip Sweater

This half-zip sweater is giving Varley-inspired at a fraction of the cost. If you’re good about de-pilling your sweaters I have H&M sweaters similar to this one that have lasted me 5+ years.

3. Black and Cream Striped Cardigan

I own last year’s version and love this cardigan. It’s a heavy knit with beautiful details and gold buttons. There are also two more stripe variations you can check out!

4. Classic V-Neck Sweater

Everywhere I turn I see a v-neck sweater. I have a bigger chest so I tend to shy away from v-necks. I would love to layer this with a black turtleneck to add some detail to a look!

5. Rib Knit Maxi Sweater Dress

Loose-fitting and down-to-the-floor is my favorite combo when it comes to dresses.

6. Double Breasted Wool Coat

One item that you’ll use year after year is a coat. You can easily dress this one up or down, and if you’re anything like me, you’ll find yourself wearing this every single day when the temperature drops.

7. Wide High Jeans

Loose-fitting jeans are trending right now. Before skinny jeans make their official come-back, it’s worth finding a variation of shape and cut that you like. If you follow me on Instagram, you see me in these all the time!

8. Straight Cut Foldover Cuff Jeans

These are what’s late and great in the world of trends today. A cuffed up pair of jeans can add just the right amount of interest to any look.

9. Long Puffer Jacket

When it’s exceptionally cold this is an absolute necessity.

10. Oversized Drawstring Waist Puffer Jacket

A cinched waist puffer jacket is perfect if you like to add some shape to your look. Plus, the chocolate brown color gives a luxury feel!

11. Margaux Inspired Bag

The chokehold the Margaux bag has on me is one step away from embarrassing. If you’re in the same boat scratch the itch with this find that’s under $60!!

12. Bucket Bag

I love the bucket detail on the shoulder. If you’re looking for a versatile medium-sized bag this is it.

13. Warm Lined Boots

All-weather boots that you can run to work, the store just about anywhere. The zipper detail and the cozy lining caught my attention!

14. Braided Ballet Flats

These flats are the perfect balance between statement and staple.

15. Leather Belt

A black leather belt is something that never goes out of style. I never feel complete when I’m not wearing a belt, it’s just a nice extra item that finishes off any look.
