As we move into March—the first month of spring in the lunar calendar—it’s the perfect time to refresh and plan a seasonal wardrobe. Creating a spring summer wishlist is an essential step in building a functional capsule wardrobe, helping you identify what pieces you already own and what’s missing. During my wardrobe planning process, I reviewed my closet to find gaps and key items to add for the warmer months. This intentional approach to a spring/summer capsule wardrobe not only keeps your style cohesive but also supports mindful shopping, helping you avoid impulse buys and invest in versatile, timeless pieces.

Spring Summer Capsule Wardrobe Essentials
I will be adding only a few items to my capsule wardrobe. Some of them will be replaced by already disposed pieces. Some pieces will be added because I was thinking about that item for a long time and it will be the best fit to add to my all-year-round capsule wardrobe. So what I will be adding?
Blazer
I had a check blazer i my minimalist fall wardrobe, but after I tried a few styles I just felt it wasn’t the right fit for me. I felt like I am following the trend, instead of my own style. But when I spotted that one and tried it on, I knew it is the right blazer for me. I bought it in TKMaxx, not the sustainable shop but I prefer to have something that ticks all my boxes except for sustainability than something that won’t work for me at all but it’s made sustainably. You might say it is too dark for spring, but that’s a great alternative to a leather jacket or trench coat.
Slip Skirt
I already have a black silk skirt and as I have loads of use of it I decided to go for a lighter colour. Beige would be a good fit for my wardrobe. My black is tailor-fit and the beige is already in making.
Shirt or Blouse
I love to wear shirts and blouses, it is a great piece to wear instead of a t-shirt. Looks smarter and lift up your outfit without too much effort.
Shoes
I will go for two styles – heels and flats. I fell in love with slingbacks in black and nude as I have worn out and bin my heels a few months ago. And I need black flats as well, as I never walk peacefully and need to catch the trains and make appointments. The leather pointy toes are high on my wishlist.
I still keep trying to buy only a few items every season. Thoughtfully created wish list helps me to budget my spendings I am not falling into trends.
