The Fall is upon us and you’re putting together your autumn capsule wardrobe. Where do you go to find out which core items you’ll need to cultivate a stunning collection? Here, of course! You know you can always count on me to provide the absolute best capsule wardrobe fall can bring.Â
If you’ve read the post from last year’s autumn wardrobe essentials then you’ll already be quite up-to-date. We aim for long-lasting, timeless pieces to go in our capsules, so it makes sense that there will be items that stay on the list year on year. However, as time progresses, so do our styling habits. So there are a few exceptions you may spot.
As well as timeless, we want comfortable, stylish, and versatile items. It is quite a challenge to find ones that meet all the criteria. Here at SBS, the hard work has been done for you. As the days begin to shorten and the temperatures start to dip, we get ready to add some layers and update our outfits. Some of your closet from last season will make over to this part of the year, so you might be wondering what’s new?
The good news is that whether you are returning for another year of autumn wardrobe inspiration, or completely new here and wanting to create your own fall capsule wardrobe, everything is here for you to get what you need. Ready to take notes? Here is your autumn capsule wardrobe 2023.

The sweater vest is a great, versatile layer to bring into your fall winter capsule wardrobe. Style it with a white shirt, faux leather leggings, and black Chelsea boots. Made with responsible wool, it gets two big thumbs up from me.
10. Dark Grey Texture SweaterÂ

It will take your fall-style game to the next level. It’s also available in black. A classic pair of autumn capsule wardrobe colors.
