Encircled has really expanded their line recently and I wanted to share how you could make a capsule wardrobe from some of their staple pieces to fit your lifestyle and give you a lot of versatility. 

1. Choose Your Loungewear

The Dressy Sweatsuit from encircled has been wildly popular for some time, consisting of the famous dressy sweatpants and the dressy sweatshirt. I love the dressy sweatpants, but find that the neckline of the dressy sweatshirt is too wide for my frame and personal taste. So it was really exciting to see the Fair Jogger Set released this year. The hoodie has really thoughtful details and both the hoodie and  jogger seem like they would be a bit more snuggly than the other set. So if you are looking for more warmth and coziness, maybe try the fair jogger set, but if you like to look polished while feeling like you're wearing jammies, go for the dressy sweatsuit. The fair lounge set is a third option, that was just announced, but I think the fair jogger set and the dressy sweatsuit may be more versatile!  Use code GETCOMFY for the Dressy Sweatsuit ($274) Use code READYSETLOUNGE for the Fair Jogger Set ($248)

2. Choose Your Dressy, but Comfy Bottoms

A capsule wardrobe is all about versatile pieces. So when you need to go to the office for an important meeting (hopefully that's post-covid), you'll want one of these bottoms from encircled. The Dressy Sweatpants have spacious pockets, a hidden back zipper pocket, elegant ruching at the ankles, and front pleats. 
The All Day Wide Leg Pant looks excellent paired with pointed toe shoes for a professional look. Finally the Dressy Leggings are a practical legging with POCKETS, and are plastic free. They have nice style lines on them and if you're a legging kind of girl, then these will be up your alley!

3. Choose Your Classic Tees

The offerings here change depending on the time of the year, but you'll most likely want at least one sleeveless, one short sleeved, and one long sleeved option. I love that encircled is expanding into other fabric offerings so that you can let your cotton blend tee do the heavy lifting and splash out on luxe modals for everything else! 

​The Everyday Sleeveless Tee $74 The Everyday Long Sleeve Tee $90 The  Everyday Boxy Tee $82 The Everyday Tank Top $68 (on sale $49) The Fair Sleeveless $88 (on sale $62) The Fair Scoop Neck or V-Neck $35 (2 pack for $62)

4. Choose Your Classy Tops

Your classy tops are going to be the ones that really take your outfit up a notch, made from sustainable and super silky soft modal like the Comfy Blouse, the Evolve Top, or the newly released Comfy Dress Shirt. Sure, you can wear these tops every day and with jeans... But the fabric is so luxurious that they are perfect for business or special events!

5. Choose Your Layering Pieces

Layering pieces help your capsule wardrobe go farther whether that means making a sleeveless piece work in fall or winter or adding a totally different style vibe. If you are a creative, you'll. love the everyday twist top. Your imagination is the limit to how this multi-way wrap cardigan can be styled. Stay tuned for some ideas on how to style the everyday twist top. The Unblazer is a comfy way to look polished for anyone on zoom calls right now and the Unmoto Jacket adds crisp and edgy lines in all the right places!

6. Choose Your Party Pieces

Hopefully you're only having parties on zoom right now or within your household. But when it's safe for anything else, encircled has a piece for you. Again, if you're creative, you'll love the Chrysalis Cardi, the original encircled piece. Endlessly versatile, the chrysalis Cardi can be styled into many different dress and skirt shapes. Do you like things more classic and polished? The breakaway wrap dress is your pick. Classic lines, flattering fit, reversible neckline, pockets... and the versatility of 2 pieces is added value! Not a dress girl? Comfy Jumpsuit is calling you! Add your favorite jewelry and I would add fun heels and you'll get tons of compliments! 

The Breakaway Wrap Dress - $228 with code WORRYFREE
The Chrysalis Cardi $169
The Comfy Jumpsuit $228

One Complete Capsule Wardrobe From Encircled - Best Value

It's pretty cool how far encircled has come and they keep releasing designs faster than I can keep up! They are also adding new colors to all time favorite designs. But everything they do is in small batch and is slow fashion, made in Canada which is great! 

If you want the best bang for your buck, here’s what I would do:

The Carry On Kit - use code PACKLIGHT to get The Chrysalis Cardi, The Dressy Sweatpant and The Evolve Top for just $338. That’s a crazy deal for these pieces.

The Fair Jogger Set - UseREADYSETLOUNGE to get The Fair Jogger and The Fair Hoodie for $248

Snag an everyday tank for $49 while they last, plus a 2-pack of the fair scoop neck or v -neck for $62, and the every day Longsleeve for $90 and one every day twist top for $156.

Capsule Wardrobe Shopping Tips

Think carefully about the colors you choose. You want them to coordinate well together. Whether that means that you get most black with a pop of color here and there, or mostly navy or gray with pops of color, just think carefully. Also check to make sure if you are buying a color in different items that the fabric and color name is the same.If you have about $1,000 you could lock in a pretty amazing capsule with these pieces, saving $150 with the KIT discounts.

PRO Tip: You can only use 1 discount at a time, so check out separately  for the kits.

Tight Budget? 

Wait, you don’t have $1,000 free right now? Me either. But if you do need to fill gaps in your wardrobe, think about what you would use most right now. Maybe it’s the Fair Jogger Set if you’re kicking it at home all the time. Or maybe you want to waitlist for the comfy dress shirt or the comfy blouse if you’re on a lot of zoom meetings.  Don’t just buy what is on sale or what is available at a kit discount if it’s not a color or style that actually suits your needs and life. :-) It’s a concept that is easy to understand but sometimes hard to apply. (Speaking from Experience)
