### **1. Capsule Wardrobe Essentials**
Building a capsule wardrobe with essentials simplifies outfit creation. Start with basics that mix and match effortlessly. Here are some staples:
– **Classic White Tee**: Works with jeans, skirts, or layered under blazers.
– **Dark Wash Jeans**: Slim or straight-leg jeans pair with anything, from tees to button-ups.
– **Black Trousers**: Tailored trousers instantly elevate any outfit, whether you pair them with sneakers or heels.
– **Neutral Blazer**: For a polished touch, a well-fitted blazer is versatile for casual or formal settings.
– **Button-Up Shirt**: Choose white or light blue, and wear it tucked, untucked, or layered.

### **2. Daily Style Tips**
– **Choose One Statement Piece**: Try making one item the focal point, like a vibrant scarf, chunky jewelry, or patterned blazer. This draws attention without overwhelming the look.
– **Embrace Layering**: Layering adds dimension and warmth—think cardigans over tees or jackets over turtlenecks. For warmer months, try layering with lightweight scarves or sleeveless vests.
– **Roll Your Sleeves and Tuck Shirts**: Small tweaks like cuffing jeans, rolling sleeves, or a half-tuck give outfits a relaxed yet styled look.
– **Monochrome with a Pop**: A single-color outfit with a pop of color (like a red belt or shoes) creates a sophisticated vibe.
