How to create a capsule wardrobe using more prints than solids! I have always been so inspired by seeing other sewists create gorgeous capsules! My girls love florals and fun prints so I wanted to build a capsule in which everything can mix and match but use way less solids than your average capsule!
1. I decided to choose my colors as a start. I wanted tops and bottoms in print, and jackets in solids. I chose eggplant, dusty blue, and mustard as my inspiration for the capsule.
2. I chose tops to be floral and ALL have each of the colors chosen (mustard, eggplant, dusty blue) the best part is with Rasberry Creek there are so many options I just used the search bar and typed each color.
3. I chose the bottoms to be a coordinating print. I searched each color and landed on dusty blue spots, eggplant checker, and mustard gingham. I did have leftover solids and made 3 solid pair of leggings as well.
4. Cardigans/dolman I chose these to be solid to go over anything!
5. That’s it! I used all boo and Lu patterns to make this fun capsule. All of the tops mix and match with the bottoms, and each jacket can be thrown over! That’s it! I can’t wait to see your fun capsules this fall and winter.
