These are the 5 pairs of shoes I’d invest in first if I had to build my capsule wardrobe again from the ground up. They’re timeless, versatile and cover every season and occasion: 1. Smart white sneakers - The ultimate everyday shoe. They work with denim, tailored trousers, skirts and even summer dresses. Leather feels more elevated, while fabric pairs can be refreshed easily in the wash. 2. Nude pumps - Elegant and seasonless. A nude heel works with every colour palette and feels right year-round. My golden rule for comfort: never go higher than 8.5 cm. 3.Flat knee-high boots - Sleek, practical and incredibly flattering. They instantly pull an outfit together and are perfect once the weather turns cooler. 4. Classic ballet flats - Light, feminine and chic. Ideal for those days when you want polish without heels. I often keep a pair in my bag to swap into at the end of the day. 5. Heeled tall boots – Nothing beats them for leg-lengthening proportions. They’re glamorous, practical for winter nights out, and perfect when you want to feel dressed up but still warm. These 5 pairs alone will take you through the whole year and almost any dress code, which is exactly what a capsule wardrobe should do: simplify your choices without compromising style. 🤍You can find the items I’m wearing in my link in bio, or just comment “link” and I will DM the links to you 🤍 …and if you want to start your own wardrobe journey, I suggest you begin with the 7 day wardrobe reset.
