While the term ‘capsule wardrobe’ is admittedly a bit played out, the concept is one I stand behind. It’s easier, more economical, and honestly just looks better to have a set of interchangeable pieces that can all be styled together.

After sampling a lot of basics over the past few years, I have two takeaways:
- You can squeeze a lot of outfits out of a few great staples.
- All basics are not created equal.
Below, explore the basics I find myself reaching for time and again. They’re from Elwood’s Core Collection, and I get so many compliments on all of them – no matter how they’re styled. Quality is at the forefront of everything Elwood makes (these clothes will last for years) and their vintage-inspired style ensures you’ll always look elevated. Their cost per wear is the lowest of any clothes I own, period.
Summer Staples
Whether you’re lounging in the sun or out for a casual brunch, these pieces give you the perfect mix of comfort and style for those warm-weather days.
The Boyfriend Look
Looser fits and laid-back vibes are the name of the game here. Get that perfect “borrowed from the boys” look – with a fit that’s actually flattering on you.
Cozy Cool
Comfort meets style in the coziest way possible. Your go-to for chilling out at home or running errands in serious comfort.
I love that these pieces can also be styled with jeans, sweaters, and other dressier pieces. They’re cozy classics for a reason.
