The French Capsule Wardrobe Secret

French women do not have large wardrobes. They have small wardrobes where everything works together. The foundation: well-fitted jeans, a white shirt, a navy blazer, a good pair of flats. Everything else is optional.

Open your closet. Can you make five complete outfits from just ten pieces? If not, you own too many items that do not work together. Start by finding one white button-down that fits perfectly.

👔

Our Recommendation

A crisp white cotton button-down shirt. Slightly oversized, untucked. The single most versatile piece in French women's wardrobes. Own two.
