Happy October pretties! This month’s Pretty Fix was inspired by a “secret” capsule wardrobe I’ve been working on for the past month but have honestly wanted to do since my daughter and I went to Paris for her 16th birthday in 2016.
The GYPO French Minimalist Capsule has been under wraps…until today. I wanted to create a capsule that’s classic and timeless with a European flair, perfect for a packing list to Paris or for everyday casual chic sophisticated style – even if you never step foot out of your front door!
This capsule has just 20 classic pieces to create 20 casual chic mix and match outfit ideas. Even if Paris isn’t in your future, this month’s Pretty Fix outfit is perfect for October in whatever neck of the woods you’re in.
Pretty Fix – October 2017
1. Long Cardigan
October means pumpkins, lattes and sweater weather! No look is complete without the ultimate “outfit completer” – the long cardigan. Try one in a beautiful burgundy shade like this. Here are some other options: 1/2/3
2. Striped Tee
It would be a major faux pas not to include a striped top in a French capsule wardrobe. Look for one that’s fitted like this one for maximum versatility. Shopping options: 1/2/3
3. Gray Skinny Jeans
Gray skinnies are one of my fall staples. They add more interest to an outfit than basic denim and they go with everything. This shaping pair hugs curves. Try these other shopping options: 1/2/3
4. Versatile Shopper
This patterned shopper tote stores all of your tourist-y essentials. Even when you’re not traveling, it makes a great everyday bag. Shopping Options: 1/2/3
5. Casual Sneakers
Think less athletic and more ath-leisure to make black and gray sneakers a truly comfortable style statement! More options: 1/2/3

Yes. Red heels in Paris. Does it get any better than that? 🙂
Allison – the striped top from KalvonFu (Amazon) What a great price. Do you have it and if so, how do you find the sizing?
Hi Shari. It fits true to size. 🙂
Love Catherine Deneuve! Great tips and i love the examples you shared. What an amazing birthday gift! Sounds wonderful. One or two pairs of great shoes.. logically I know it, but it would be tough to do! 🙂
Have a great week!

Thanks Jess. Thanks for checking it out. It is always a tough decision with shoes isn’t it? 🙂 I hope you have a great weekend!
Love the cardigan, but as a petite curvy, they are not to be found. These would almost reach the floor on me. I would love an 18 petite.
Thanks Sona. I hope you can find one similar that works for you. Have a great weekend!
Thanks for linking up to Top of the World Style. Paris is always worth the travel.
