"It’s finally time: The summer months are almost here, and it’s time to refresh our closets for the new season.

You might be searching for outfits to wear for fun vacations or adventures this summer, or maybe you just need a wardrobe reset for your usual activities. Capsule wardrobes are ideal for when you don’t want to have too many items in your closet but still want to be able to mix and match to create tons of different looks.
These 24 pieces will ensure that your closet always has the right elements to create an outfit for every activity on the agenda this summer. Scroll on to check out The Everymom’s capsule wardrobe for summer 2024, plus 10 styling ideas to get you started.
Why create a summer capsule wardrobe?
The goal of this summer capsule is to be able to put any of these pieces together and instantly look effortlessly chic. You’ll no longer have to spend lots of time searching through your closet for pieces that “go together”—instead, you’ll take comfort in knowing that you can throw on any of your capsule pieces for an outfit that will have you feeling your best.
We’ve handpicked these pieces to include a solid foundation of neutral basics, and then mixed in some unique, on-trend items for when you want to make a statement. You’ll find a few of summer’s hottest trends, such as breezy linen and pajama-esque (but chic!) bottoms, alongside classic denim and athleisure pieces. The overall aesthetic of this year’s capsule was curated so that you can have a “European girl summer”—even if you’re not leaving your neighborhood.
