31 Things I’m Adding to My Fall 2025 Capsule Wardrobe

I’m rethinking my closet for the season ahead—fewer pieces and better quality for Fall 2025

I did a little Amazon “shopping” this week—well, virtual window shopping—and with Prime Days starting today, I wanted to see just how far a $2,000 wardrobe refresh could go.

My original total? $2,074.36.
Prime Day total? $1,655.87.

Capsule wardrobes have been trending for a while, and for good reason. Whether you’re postpartum, starting fresh with your style, riding the Ozempic/Trizepitide wave, or (like me) just plain tired of staring at the same old clothes—it might be time for a reset.

But this isn’t just about style. It’s about ease. As a mom, my time is limited, my laundry is endless, and decision fatigue is real. So I’m building my Fall/Winter 2025 wardrobe with intention: fewer pieces, higher quality, and breathable layers (because… hello, Texas).

Instead of another impulsive summer shopping spree (I’m looking at you, random sundress I never wore), I’ve started clearing out the old—selling on Etsy, eBay, Poshmark, and at local consignment shops. Then I curated a focused Amazon wishlist to keep me on track. No more random buys. Just wearable essentials I can mix, match, and repeat.

Let me be clear—I’m no fashion influencer. I love a good deal, and I love not having to think too hard about what to wear every day. These pieces are mostly neutrals (except the purses—I live for a bold bag). I’ll still rock my red-and-black checkered Vans, graphic tees, and hoodies when the mood strikes.

Below are the 31 items I picked to anchor my closet, and how I would mix-and-match. These are pieces I wouldn’t want to live without. Most capsule wardrobe guides suggest around 33 pieces, but you can easily go smaller (or bigger). What matters is that it works for you.
