So how do you build a capsule wardrobe? Look for timeless, high-quality pieces in neutral tones and patterns, and think of getting those pieces from head to toe. Think tees, blouses, and zip-ups, plus slacks, skirts, and pants; a dress and a jumpsuit; and to finish it off, versatile shoes that can be dressed up or down. Armed with these, and classics you already own, you’re ready for anything.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to build your perfect capsule wardrobe for fall and beyond, featuring our must-have bestselling styles that stand the test of time!
Start your fall capsule wardrobe off with a pair of classic slacks. Because everyone needs a pair of go-to, well-fitting trouser pants in her wardrobe! Opt for a neutral color like Black or Cobblestone, and add a bit of preppy style with our Navy Pinstripe Audrey Trousers! Perfect for the office, a girls night out, or travel, these pants are high-waisted, wide-legged and are so easy to wear and style.
Add our Boss Crop Blouse to your closet for a top that's dressier than a basic tee but still comfortable and lightweight. Opt for a solid color or shop our Windowpane print for an approachable, easy-to-style print that you’ll love. A boat neck and wide sleeves add gorgeous details to any outfit.
A pair of sophisticated trousers will do you wonders and elevate an outfit with ease. Pair them with a Basic Crew Neck Tee for a casual yet polished look, or dress them up with a blouse and heels for a night out! Front and back pockets plus a slimming tailored fit make these a capsule wardrobe must-have.
This timeless skirt is wrinkle-free, lightweight, and the perfect just-above-the-knee length. With a three-inch elastic waistband, our Club Skirt is comfortable, classy, and can be styled with ease. Plus, pockets!
A jumpsuit is a must-have for any capsule wardrobe, as it combines style and comfort in one effortless package. Our Classic Overall Jumpsuit is wrinkle-free, lightweight, and loves to layer. Whether you’re running errands, heading to the airport, or meeting up with friends, a jumpsuit is a perfect option for comfort and cuteness. Plus, a pop of color from the floral print adds personality and fun.
Everyone needs a basic go-to white tee! In a sculpting, ribbed fabric, this t-shirt holds its shape and style all day long. With a curved hem and a classic fit, it pairs great with any bottoms, tucked in or not! Other colors we love are Black and Cappuccino.
Combine style and comfort in one with our Cape Cod Zip-Up Dress! Pair with ankle boots for an upscale look, or sneakers for a casual cool vibe. With a flattering bow belt and a zip up neckline, this dress is the perfect capsule piece because of its everyday versatility.
An all-time Albion favorite, no capsule wardrobe is complete without this lightweight, moisture-wicking, fully-lined bomber jacket. We’ve seen our Bomber worn to and from the gym, to an outdoor concert, to the office, to an overseas sightseeing day, and so so much more. Flattering, the perfect weight, and available in loads of prints and shades– but black might be our favorite.
What’s not to love about loafers? Dressy enough to pair with slacks and a dress, yet casual enough to wear daily. We love these for their waterproof material and elegant design details like a leather-wrapped heel. With the perfect amount of height (2 inches on the heel), these Sorel Loafers are everyday shoes you’ll have for years. A capsule wardrobe must-have.
With these essential pieces in your fall capsule wardrobe, you’ll always have a stylish, reliable, and comfortable outfit for any occasion. Let your personal style shine through, and shop our fall capsule wardrobe picks! As always, start a chat with us if you have style or fit questions.

A flattering and comfortable swimsuit starts with the right fit, especially when it comes to the bust! Knowing what styles and features fit your chest can help you find suits that’ll have you feeling confident and worry-free in and out of the water.
There are a couple of factors to consider when looking for a top that’ll work well for your girls. These include but are not limited to coverage, underwire, adjustability, material, and bra pads. Depending on your bust size, these features can make a huge difference in the fit of your suit.
To start, all of our tops come with removable bra pads (except for our bustier-style swims like the Hailey Crop, which have a structured underwire bust). Some people prefer no pads, but keeping them in adds an extra layer of support and coverage.
If you are looking for extra oomph, try our BFF pads! Use these inserts in your Albion swim top for a little extra lift and to fill out those cups!
From AA to D+, we’ve got a suit for you. Let’s check ‘em out!
With a dramatic underwire that adds shape and structure, our Clara Bikini is perfect for our itty-bitty-you know what-committee!
Our bandeau-style suits are perfect for smaller busts, and the smocked style of our Charlotte Top adds a bit of fun texture and stretch!
Other honorable mentions: Icon Swim Crop and Top Knot
Our Olivia Crop boasts a stunning square neck and a sporty mid-length fit complete with a built-in shelf bra. Doubles as a workout top!
There’s a reason this suit has 5 stars! True to size, our Echo Swim Top’s halter neckline proves well for smaller busts, while the keyhole detail offers a flirty touch.
Other honorable mentions: Hailey Crop, Rise bralette
With a thick waistband and a gorgeous, structured V cutout, our Deep V Bikini Top gives you the support you need with the fun you want!
Thicker straps with a crisscross back mean more support from our Shock Crop bikini top! We’re talking ample coverage with a flirty neckline!
Other honorable mentions: Bella Crop Top, Bella Tankini
Say hello to the only sweats he’ll ever need. Our 5-star At Ease Joggers are made with our heavier-weight nylon-spandex blend and designed with a tapered, flattering fit that looks and feels amazing. From the gym to the airport to the couch, these joggers are ones he’ll wear again and again.
“The most comfortable sweats ever!"
Seriously the most comfortable sweats ever, I have had them for awhile and they are my go to lounging around the house pants. I want them as soon as they get out of the dryer. Get more colors please. -Patrick F.

We know how busy the holiday season can be. While we love all the parties, events, recitals, and other gatherings, it can also feel like a LOT! One of the best ways we’ve discovered to stay grounded during this busy season is to take a minute each day to practice one of our favorite things:
Giving + Gratitude
The best way to combat the negativity and stress that can creep in around this time (or honestly, anytime) is to be grateful and show others that we appreciate them! We’ve picked a simple activity to do for each day of November to share some positivity and help where it’s needed most.
“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.” –Eckhart Tolle
Will you join us for 30 Days of Giving?
