How to dress for Christmas and successfully create a capsule wardrobe for the holiday season, perhaps by shopping in your closet?

This year, more than ever, we need to keep our spirits up during this strange holiday season, which we’ll most likely be celebrating a bit subdued and in an inner circle of people.

So, in my opinion, it’s even more important to take care of ourselves and add some festive touches to our looks – in short, to make ourselves look pretty! But of course without stressing or getting tired: I think we’ve already had enough stress this year.

A few days ago I published a YouTube video that was very successful. I showed you concretely how I created a small capsule wardrobe for December and early January nights.

First, I selected a color palette. In my case, after gathering some inspiration on the Internet I finally chose 3colors: cream, red and black.

At this point, I selected some basic and more particular items in these colors from my usual wardrobe.

Finally, I chose the accessories: I replicated the colors of the capsule wardrobe and added a few extra touches as well.

In fact, I think the easiest outfits to create, and also the most chic and elegant, are often the monochromatic ones with some bright touches or in a contrasting color. Or, the ones that combine two contrasting (or even similar) colors , with some gold or silver accents.

This little capsule wardrobe allows me to create many outfits with a limited number of garments and accessories.

In the following pictures you can see some of my favorite outfits:
