A mystical date for many cultures around the world; this Saturday the 21st of June is officially summer! The sun will be at its highest point, we’ll be enjoying the longest and lightest day of the year, and here at Seraphine we’ve decided to mark the occasion by planning our summer capsule wardrobes!
Yep, from now until mid-September we are officially in summer holiday season, so it only makes sense to be ready to jet off for a bit of sun, sea and sand at a moment’s notice – you know, just in case!
So what’s the Secret to creating a Stylish Capsule Wardrobe?
Planning your summer capsule maternity wardrobe is all about choosing basic essential pieces that will coordinate well together, and introducing a few statement pieces in accent colours and patterns. The idea is to be able to mix and match all of your styles to create new looks every day, without exceeding your luggage allowance at the airport!
During pregnancy this clever fashion fix is especially important, as however much you’d like to, it simply isn’t practical to replace your entire wardrobe with maternity clothes. But if you invest in a capsule maternity wardrobe, you will always have stylish pieces to wear that coordinate perfectly!
Suggestions for St Tropez:
So let’s put together an example for a long weekend in St Tropez… hey, a girl can dream right?
First we’ll need some basic bottoms – we love the Blue Denim Maternity Mini Shorts for all purpose day wear, and a good pair of white maternity jeans can be dressed up or down, as can a maternity maxi skirt.
Next we choose some tops. A few basic maternity camisoles in neutral colours will be invaluable, then you can mix it up with more interesting patterned styles like our fabulous Nautical Nursing Top!
Once the basics are sorted, you can start having fun choosing statement pieces that will make your style really stand out. A light maternity day dress is a great idea for easy elegance, and a stunning maternity maxi dress is the perfect style to transition from day to night. Don’t forget a cosy cover up for the evenings and a glamorous maternity swimsuit for the beach. And a striking patterned kaftan is a capsule wardrobe star buy: You can use it as a chic cover up on the beach, style it with shorts and a maternity bikini top for an afternoon lazing on the deck of your private yacht, or wear it as a glamorous tunic over cropped trousers for an evening on the town!
