I took a quick trip to New York and wanted to pack light. The challenge was that everything needed to fit in a suitcase and duffle bag. I went with a capsule wardrobe with items that could mix and match.

Curvy Capsule Outfit #1: The Airport

I needed an outfit that was comfy and functional. Here was the situation – I was flying out of Los Angeles on a red-eye to New York. The weather was going to be different! My outfit needed to keep me warm and be comfy enough to sleep on the plane. We stayed at The Archer Hotel.

Outfit: Leggings, Shapewear Inspired Top, Overcoat, Sneakers, and a Striped Pullover

Curvy Capsule Outfit #2: Exploring the City

Next, I had a day to explore the city with my sister. I knew we would be walking a lot! We checked out the High Line. My plan was to wear something cute, comfy, and warm. I wore a thick turtleneck bodysuit, a mini pleated skirt, fleece-lined tights, boots, and an overcoat.

Outfit: Turtleneck Bodysuit, Pleated Skirt, Fleece-Lined Tights, Boots, and an Overcoat.

Curvy Capsule Outfit #3: Out to Dinner

After that, we went out to dinner to Ci Siamo. Everything we got was so good! The base of the outfit was pretty much the same. However, instead of a turtleneck bodysuit and skirt, I wore a bodycon dress.

Outfit: Mock Turtleneck Bodycon Dress, Fleece-Lined Tights, Boots, and an Overcoat.

Outfit: Black Bodysuit, Faux Leather leggings, Scarf, Boots, and an Overcoat.
