My Minimalism Traveling Wardrobe Capsule

Oh boy. I love clothes! I love fashion! I love beauty! So, when we decided to travel the world, I knew it would be a challenge to slim my closet down to a suitcase. But I love a good challenge and I love living simply so it was actually pretty fun putting together my minimalism traveling wardrobe capsule. This is what I have packed on my world traveling adventure!

When packing a wardrobe capsule, it’s important to pick a color scheme so you can easily mix and match pieces. I went with a neutral palette of black, gray, and white. Almost all of my tops and bottoms and footwear can be mixed and matched to make lots of different outfit options. The key is to pick items that are versatile, light weight, and easy to pack & wear.
