With August around the corner, I am launching the August 30 Pieces, 30 Days Capsule Challenge! For those that have been living The Capsule Wardrobe lifestyle already (or even in part) - this is our chance to live and breathe it together.

If you're new to this concept of mixing and matching just a few essentials to create your ultimate Capsule Wardrobe, I'll show you how to do this throughout the month of August.

Below you'll find a list of my 30 essentials - this is based on a Sydney winter but you can modify the list to best suit your current climate and location. I'll be posting my daily outfits created from these basics (with a healthy dose of accessorising)!

5 x skirts (I am loving skirts right now but feel free to swap a couple of these for trousers if this is your preference) - black leather - basic black - soft pleated - white skirt - statement skirt

2 x jeans (black and blue wash)

6 x knits - charcoal - cream - light mauve - dusty pink - sparkly - black

1 x bodysuit (watch how versatile this is over the next month!!)

1 x statement coloured blouse

2 x camisoles

3 x blazers (these are on high rotation for work but if you don't need as many replace these with additional tops) - navy - black - statement

1 x black coat

3 x bags - work - weekend - statement coloured

6 x shoes (replace the heels with more flats or wedges if required - or more clothes!) - black flats - weekend street shoes - black ankle booties - leopard heels - statement coloured heels - snakeskin print heels

= 30 pieces"

Together, I'll show you how to choose wisely, spend less and wear more with just 30 pieces.
