I file my (limited) tie-dye pieces in my closet under classics. They’re my go to for a warm day in the summer and a pick-me-up in a gloomy April storm. There was a long period where I gravitated toward statement pieces and for the handful I still love, I’m happy I did. This Polo button-down (circa 2019) is one of my all-time favorites. It’s one of those things I don’t think I’ll ever part with. If you’re new here, I consistently share capsule wardrobe guides, so you may be wondering where tie-dye fits in.

I live for a maxi dress. Long sleeves? High Neck? It’s a yes for me. I love the elegance of a well-fitted dress that covers so much yet still makes a statement.

Varley has quickly become my latest hyper-fixation. Living in the New York City suburbs it's not often outfits catch my eye. I steer away from looking rushed and a bit too comfortable. Yet being able to move with my baby girl on my hip and look effortless doing it is my goal when I select an outfit. When I see Varley in the wild - aka at my local Trader Joe's - it's the fabrics and versatility that make me do a double-take.
The first item I ever purchased from Everlane was a cropped wide-leg pants. They were a thicker, almost denim-like material and in fact, are still in my wardrobe rotation today. When creating a capsule wardrobe you want to add items you can see yourself wearing in the years to come. Not one-hit-wonders. This Everlane Fall Capsule Wardrobe is a guide to get you thinking about what might be missing in your closet. Another reason why I’m a big Everlane fan is that many of their items are available year after year. They are classic so why not keep them around?!…
