completing a capsule wardrobe

There is a website called ‘Susan over 60’ , she wears very nice clothes and has loads of ideas for a capsule wardrobe, I used a lot of her ideas a couple of years ago, like you I had loads of clothes but nothing matched.
Have a look there are some very good ideas on there , albeit American clothes, but similar are easily obtainable over here.

Is there not a British equivalent to Susanafter60, not keen on Pinterest.

I would suggest choosing your favourite colours and also discard those which don't suit the 'image' you wish to convey. Only buy new things which co-ordinate with your chosen items and best to avoid small details as they tend to date.

If you don't do jeans, trousers, skirts or dresses what do you wear?

I thought that Hetty but I guess she just wears trousers, and maybe leggings or track suit bottoms with tunics, jumpers or tops.

Marydoll yes that’s the one, some of her older blogs are interesting, well I found them useful.

OP says she doesnt do tight trousers, not all trousers

Oopsadaisy3, I have been having a look around, when I should be preparing dinner!

Dinner can wait, this is serious!

I don't know what your style is to advise but I have all the items that this lady is wearing ( including the shoes) my favourites. I could not be without my camel coat or my blazer
( cashmere) bought second hand.https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/389139224055731472/

Why didn't my link work?

I've got rid of all dark navy, black and red tops recently. I don't think those colours are at all flattering near my poor old face. I need softer colours/shades now.

And white is out of the question too - it just makes my teeth (and whites of eyes) look a little yellow!

The shoes are fabulous!

Could some knew explain just what a capsule wardrobe us, please.

Kitty, a capsule wardrobe is a collection of a few essential items of clothing that do not go out of fashion, such as skirts, trousers, and coats, which can then be augmented with seasonal pieces.

Well, that's what the dictionary says!?

Thank you, marydoll!

The trouble with clothes that never go out of fashion is that it is usually because they were never in fashion in the first place.

I choose a couple of colours each season to try and match what I already have to, this autumn and winter I chose grey and green.

It helps not to get distracted and buy stuff that doesn’t go with anything, as that would be a waste of money.

thanks for the link Marydoll will take a look later when i have time to digest.
Hettymaud when i said about the clothes i don't wear i should have said i don't do leggings or slim fit trousers. I prefer the classic type and loose fitting linen ones in the summer.
