There are a plethora of trends that span decades and fashion designers are famous for recycling ideas while fabricating new twists to keep things interesting. While creativity is paramount, blending trends with classic pieces increases the longevity of the wardrobe. In building a closet, the following are essential for a flawless look and execution of fabulousness!
- Crisp white shirt
- Dark indigo denim jean or pant in a flattering style
- Black or navy suit which should include a jacket, pant, and pencil skirt that is slightly above knee length
- White tee shirt and camisole
- Cashmere or merino wool crew or v-neck sweater and cardigan (a quality cotton sweater is good for early spring and fall)
- Black dress
- Quality leather dress flats and heels in black and brown (wedges are great if stillettos are not your thing)
- Trench coat
When choosing dress pants and skirts ideal colors include navy, black, gray, and taupe or brown. Investing in quality pieces means ensuring correct proportions to truly pull off the look so a true fashionista needs a top notch tailor. All of these items depend on a person's individual needs and lifestyle. Not everyone needs to own a suit but a great blazer when mixed with a camisole or silk shirt is perfect for a night out. When building a wardrobe it is all about making it unique to you however a few thoughts to keep in mind include choosing fabric or material quality over quantity and adding pops of color like a red heel or scarf or even a costume jewelry piece extends the versatility of a look. Mending favorites is ok but every closet needs purging over time especially for maintaining a polished look. Also be aware of how many resources can be devoted to the care of the item (i.e. dry cleaning a suit or silk shirt).
Cheers and happy building!
