Modern Capsule Wardrobe


modern day capsule
Lately I have been thinking a lot about clothes that just seem to stick around and have become somewhat part of a modern day capsule wardrobe. I see my wardrobe as something to build on and realise some purchases have enhanced my already existing items greatly. There are also some disposable quick fix items but mostly I like to have things I feel I can wear forevs. So I hit up polyvore and put together some items which I think make good wardrobe staples. 
Blazer: this can come in many different forms, boyfriend, fitted, sequin, tweed, navy/military.
Black vest and white vest.
Plaid shirt, never ending greatness really.
Leather jacket in any of its forms.
Leggings: wet look, leather, floral, just beware of those Lindsey Lohan catastrophes!
Trench; a classic.
Cardigan; always handy for throwing over anything, belted being the cardi de jour.
Breton striped top = duh! 
High waisted skirt.
The floral dress is the new little black dress in my eyes.
Denim shorts.
Great pair of heels; I'd vote black.
Converse; I don't even own a pair of these right now but really should.
Flats, flats, flats.
Also jeans, but thats just a given! 

Things that nearly made the list:
Mocassins
A pea coat (navy gold buttons) 
Tshirts, mostly of the logo variety;couldn't find any decent ones on polyvore, but I can never get enough. 
A fur coat.
Biker boots or any boots for that matter.
Brogues.
Parka.
As for accessories thats a whole new post! Any thoughts on what I have missed out?
