Bright Spring capsule wardrobe

Bright Spring can wallow in exuberantly happy colours and go wild with patterns. Warm, bright colours, animal prints, lots of energy and movement.

Neutrals: Bright Spring can tolerate a little bit of black in patterns, and also can wear black if it is away from the face. Bright Winter can get away with a pair of black shorts or black capri pants, but in this capsule wardrobe I made it a point to avoid black.

This is a little different from True Spring, who should ideally avoid black altogether. In my example of a True Spring capsule wardrobe there is no black whatsoever. 

I have linked each item to the online store where I found it (the Norwegian Zalando shop). I am not an affiliate of Zalando, but this is a convenient online store for my Scandinavian clients, who always ask me where they can buy the items.

If you want more information about my 1-2-3-4 capsule wardrobe formula I explain it in some detail here.

Bright orange cardigan
Brown pants with white print pattern
White skirt with abstract pattern

I use the 1-2-3-4 formula as a start for any capsule wardrobe.

The basics

1 cardigan
2 bottoms (one skirt, one pair of pants)

They could be all neutrals, but I add a multicoloured skirt and a bright orange cardigan, because Bright Spring needs movement and pizzazz. 

Yellow long sleeve top
Green T-shirt
Bright purple top
The 3 tops

For the tops, I picked a yellow long sleeve top, and two sleeveless/short sleeve tops (good for layering).

All these tops can be worn with both the bottoms, creating different looks.

Accessories

A happy necklace with movement because of the fun tassels, a scarf and some green sandals. I also added a super multicoloured bomberjacket from Desigual, a statement piece that is so fabulous that I couldn't resist adding it to the capsule wardrobe. It will be an instant game changer and mood lifter for any Bright Spring who wears it!

Orange tassel necklace
Bright orange and white scarf
Green sandals
Desigual multicolour bomber jacket

Enjoy a bright spring, all you lovely exuberant Bright Springs out there!
