The beauty and colors of Venice are still very much present in my mind, and with summer approaching, they have decidedly inspired this summer's capsule wardrobe additions.
When shopping for color I don't have to look far, a darling member of my family has a wonderful range of beautifully made cotton basics, in nearly all colors imaginable. Originally, her business (Kettlewell Colours) catered to those who had their colors done, but because of the fantastic range she has, many just come because they know it's a great place to find that specific shade to match other wardrobe items or accessories. With my new Ceintures de Liens shawl in mind, and full of memories of beautiful Venice, I selected across the board, although most pieces seem to be from the summer category.. so perhaps this is my season?

First row: sleeveless v-neck top in marine blue and sleeveless cowl neck top in mallard
Second row: square neck 3/4 sleeve t-shirt in vibrant pink and slash neck 3/4 sleeve t-shirt in navy
Third row: square neck vest in breton blue and scoop neck 3/4 sleeve t-shirt in seaspray

In the coming blog posts, the new pieces will be featured individually, and teamed with existing pieces and scarves in the Capsule wardrobe series format. The associations with Venice will hopefully be enjoyed, especially by those who did not want the travelogue to end (me included)...
