The holidays are soon approaching and we understand that coming up with minimalist gift ideas can be a bit of a challenge. If you have individuals in your life that lead a minimalist lifestyle, giving carefully chosen and intentional gifts is key. We’ve compiled our favorite minimalist Christmas gifts that can be used to build a versatile capsule wardrobe.
Defining a Capsule Wardrobe
Sometimes less is more. Have you ever rummaged endlessly through your closet, only to find nothing appealing to wear? A capsule wardrobe makes getting dressed in the morning a much simpler affair. This carefully curated collection of clothing consists of a small number of timeless, interchangeable staple items that can be used to create a variety of different outfits. When you’re looking for minimalist gift ideas for the women in your life, opt for a few staple pieces that would make for a great addition to her capsule wardrobe.
1. Two-Piece Sets
Clara Cardigan Skirt Set ($110)
Our two-piece sets are a fantastic starting point. These transitional pieces deliver a put-together look that doesn’t feel forced. Undeniably chic yet still timeless, these two-piece sets work so well together, but they can also be styled on their own. Whether she’s clocking in at the office or heading out for a night on the town, our sets inspire confidence — they’re refined, but also laid-back. They can be styled formally or casually, depending on her mood.
2. Blazers
When shopping for minimalist gift ideas, try to find something that can be both dressed up or down. One of the best minimalist Christmas gifts ideas is a blazer. This staple wardrobe piece is perfect for layering over top of a blouse for more formal occasions or paired with a pair of jeans for a more casual affair. These versatile pieces can be worn across a multitude of seasons.
3. Satin Tops
Malone Button-Front Satin Shirt ($65)
Neutral tops are essential to a well-curated capsule wardrobe. With a few staple shirts, you suddenly have the ability to mix and match with everything else in your closet. Opt for tops that feature timeless, classic cuts in colors that are neutral, such as beige, white, grey, or black. Satin tops, specifically, are one of our favorite minimalist gift ideas that will allow for endless outfit opportunities.
4. Sweater Dresses
Every capsule wardrobe needs a few classic and timeless dresses. We suggest having a few options that range from casual to formal for various occasions. One of our favorites to gift is a cozy sweater dress. Choose a style and color that is guaranteed to have multiple uses throughout the cold seasons.
