Capsule Dressing - Sophisticated Ease

(These photos were originally shared on Oct 24, 2012)
You take about 6 pieces of clothing that you can mix and match together into multiple outfits. Typically it consists of 2 tops, 2 bottoms and 2 jackets in 2-3 complimentary colors.

Creating an effortlessly sophisticated fall wardrobe is as easy as 1, 2, 3.

1) Choose two tops, bottoms & jackets in your favorite kika styles.
2) Select a complimentary color palette.
3) Accessorize. Voila! 

You will create 12 ready to wear outfits to take you seamlessly from fall to spring.

We augmented the neutral palette of Steel, Black, and White with a flush of Bordeaux. Amy’s sweater knit fabric creates a mosaic of color and texture in a classic Chanel inspired silhouette, while Erin’s Tencel construction delivers the saturated richness of oxblood. No closet is complete without the tailored Jenna pencil skirt, combining curve appeal and sleekness. Finish your look with polished accessories and a pair of textured tights.

Spice things up with statement-worthy accessories. Texture, studs, and a touch of bling add high fashion drama to wardrobe basics. The best thing about kika capsules is that they are all about YOU…expressing your style, your way. So, say ‘goodbye’ to cookie cutter fashion and ‘Hello, kika!’

I wore this outfit to bunco and the ladies loved the look!!

Erin in Winter White
Penny in Mineral

Here is my bunco outfit with my dyed to match shoes. Just kidding but they are really the perfect match to the jacket. I am wearing Penny in Mineral and this jacket is one of my favorites. This is also the first time I put on Erin in Winter White. I don't normally like turtlenecks but this one is fabulous! The neck is soft and comfortable and doesn't feel like it is choking me.

Penny in Mineral

Here is the back of Penny in the Mineral wash. The details on the back are so flattering. This jacket comes in all 12 of the solid colors too but this special wash makes it look like distressed leather. However, it feels like a robe when you put it on.
