Ladies, you’re up! Let’s talk about the clothing in your closet. What items do you have in there that you think could be on the list of must-have items? If you said jeans and a plain white t-shirt then you should consider placing a bet in the lottery because you are correct.
These timeless items will keep you trendy regardless of which season we are in.
Plain white tee – An essential piece for any wardrobe is the white t-shirt, but not just any white tee – I call it the elevated white tee. Its versatility lies in its ability to be dressed up or down. Pair it with jeans, a leather jacket, and heels for a night out, or style it with joggers and sneakers for a casual look while running errands. Either way, you’ll achieve a chic and polished appearance.
A black turtleneck, mock neck, or bodysuit – Every woman should have a black turtleneck, mock neck, or bodysuit in her wardrobe for effortless dressing. A classic black turtleneck is incredibly versatile and can be styled in numerous ways. It transitions seamlessly from day to night, pairing effortlessly with dress pants, a leather skirt, or a pencil skirt for a professional look. For a more casual ensemble, wear it with jeans or joggers. In fall, pair a lightweight turtleneck with silk or cotton joggers and sneakers for a stylish, put-together look. Add a cardigan and wool coat, and you’re ready for winter.
Neutral sweater – Another wardrobe staple is a neutral classic sweater. A solid color knit offers endless styling possibilities, whether paired with jeans, a leather skirt, or leggings and joggers. While I suggest cashmere for its luxurious feel, a 100% cotton sweater is a more budget-friendly option that also holds up well over time.
An easy dress – Another must-have for every woman’s wardrobe is an easy-to-style dress. This essential piece can be layered with outerwear, opaque tights, and boots for winter, or paired with a sweater. In the summer, you can wear it with open-toed sandals, whether flat or heeled. I find that a lined silk dress is versatile and can be styled for all seasons.
Denim jeans- A staple item for your wardrobe is a fantastic pair of denim jeans that make you feel fantastic. The fit is a personal preference, but jeans have been found to be flattering for most women. Opt for a high-waisted pair to help create a flattering silhouette. Additionally, invest in a medium to dark blue wash, as these styles can easily transition from day to night.
