Since spring is just around the corner, I’m starting to get into that mood to organize. The end of a season is a great time to go through your closet and take inventory of what you wore…and identify what you didn’t. Generally, if you went a whole season without wearing something, it’s probably time to toss it, don’t you think? Considering I’m looking to buy a new wardrobe like the one you can find here, I thought I should make room for new items instead of keeping the old stuff.
My closet has seen a number of trends come and go, but there’s certain pieces that I hang onto for years. My wardrobe staples – the perfect pair of skinny jeans and my go-to black blazer – are pretty darn close to “forever.” It’s those wardrobe staples that will never go out of style, or lose their appeal. These are pieces that can be worn multiple ways in multiple situations.
Very simply, wardrobe staples are the building blocks of any woman’s wardrobe. If you’re looking to build a wardrobe, or modernize what you already have, you should consider investing in quality basics. I’m not suggesting that you spend more than you can afford, but if it’s between splurging on a classic blazer or on an open-back sparkly dress for a friend’s wedding…the blazer will be the better buy. When you look for trendy pieces, consider shopping somewhere that won’t break the bank. There are loads of places that you can go though, so if you are thinking of getting a new leather bag then you might be interested in checking out these australian designers.
All of that being said, I put together my list of 12 wardrobe staples that I think every girl should own. Make sure to “pin” this one for later!
- Cozy Cardigan
- Jean Jacket
- Classic Blazer
- Little Black Dress
- Neutral Blanket Scarf
- Layering Tee’s
- Sneakers
- Dark Skinny Jeans
- Leather Jacket
- Aviator Sunglasses
- Classic Leather Bag
- Black Booties
What do you consider to be your wardrobe staples?
