As we enter into the backend of a major heatwave (that was brutal), and drop 30 degrees into the 70’s, I’m always reminded that this time of the year is typically like a yo-yo and fairly inconsistent.
All of that to say, it makes creating a September capsule wardrobe, that’s applicable to everyone, a bit more difficult since I know that for some the weather will get cooler much quicker than in Southern California… and for others, it will stay warmer longer… and still others will experience much of the same up and down (mostly up, typically) weather pattern that we experience. I was scrolling through my weather app this morning, and we have an upcoming trip to Montana, where the temps are showing 50’s this week (sounds glorious right about now)….
So this month’s capsule (and really all of them) is designed to be flexible… I have cut-offs and jeans. If temps where you live are cooler, swap out the black cut-offs for black jeans, and vice versa. If it’s too warm for the fisherman sweater, wear one of the oversized button downs I shared. If I suggest an outfit that would require a top layer for you, any of the ones I have here (or something you own that’s similar) will work. If I suggest sandals, but that’s too cold, swap them out for sneakers, flats, or any other shoe that would fit the occasion. And while I can’t create a capsule that 100% works for everyone, I hope it can work for the majority of people.
This month I did quite a bit of swapping in and out with items I’ve either had in previous capsules, or have shared here before in some fashion (likely a weekend recap)…. while still keeping many of the same items that you’ve seen month over month.
I love this white ribbed button down and this ribbed black button down (I have similar options for them linked below)… an easy glow up from a basic tee.
And I added in these sand colored jeans, as I love the color for end of summer and the fall season ahead.
For a sweater, this striped 100% organic cotton one is such a great option to throw over the shoulder or layer over a tank.
Working on getting styled outfits together, but in the meantime, I’ve put together 30 outfits below.
