Start by taking inventory of the clothing you already have. Go through your closet and pull out the items that you wear most often. These are the pieces that will form the foundation of your capsule.
Then, make a list of the items that you need to complete your wardrobe. These could be items like a new pair of jeans or a dress for a special occasion.
Finally, organize your capsule wardrobe so that it is easy to find what you need when getting dressed each day. You may want to create separate sections for different types of clothing.
