There is hardly a woman who would not stand in front of her closet and think: “I have nothing to wear.” But if you have the wardrobe essentials in your closet, it doesn't have to be that way.
If you have the basic pieces that make up the “foundation” of your wardrobe, you will always be able to create an outfit that you love.
These essentials will be different for every woman as we all have different body types, style personalities, lifestyles and preferences.
However, no matter what your wardrobe staples are, you can use these pieces as the basis for a capsule wardrobe to help you dress stylishly with ease.
Tip: It's worth investing more in basics because they can be the foundation of your wardrobe for years to come. So look for classic pieces of good quality. Think not only about the cost of purchase, but also about the duration of wear.
Once you've decided on your essentials, you can “decorate” them with more color and accessories. Having basic pieces will allow you to always mix and match them easily.
White shirt
A white button-down shirt opens up endless outfit possibilities. There are so many ways to wear it. You can pair it with jeans, a blazer and flats for a classic look, or layer it under a sweater or dress to add extra interest to your outfit.
Cashmere sweater
A cashmere sweater instantly adds a touch of luxury to even the most basic outfits, making it the perfect addition to your wardrobe. Wear it with jeans and ankle boots, and for evening - with a leather or pleated skirt.
It's usually long enough to look great with leggings and can have an asymmetrical neckline to give your outfit that extra edge. You can always wear a white shirt underneath it on top.
Silk shirt
Silk is another one of those fabrics that instantly adds luxury to your outfits. You will have to pay more for silk, but its beauty is that it can be worn with absolutely everything and for all occasions.
Asymmetrical top
Asymmetry can make a simple outfit much more interesting. It will also help you downplay the parts of your body that you don't really like and highlight the parts that you do like.
A top with a scarf hem drapes well and is a good option to wear over leggings or skinny jeans. Available in stores in a huge number of colors, choose the one that has already earned many positive reviews, and you will get something that will serve you for many years.
Black pants
Whether you wear them to work or dress them up for a night out, a classic pair of black pants will never go out of style.
When choosing new black trousers, be sure to pay attention to the classic wide-leg style, which will be especially in trend this 2023.
White pants
Just like black pants, white pants should be a staple in your wardrobe. Apart from black, no other color goes so easily together, and the added benefit is that an outfit with a white base will look fresh and energetic. You can wear white trousers in winter too, try to create a unique look with ankle boots.
Dark denim jeans
Finding the perfect pair of jeans is not easy. But I definitely advise you to go for dark jeans.
Not only are they suitable for a variety of occasions, but they also look really good. They're also less prone to staining, so if you invest in a pair that's a little more expensive than normal, they'll likely last longer.
The classic fit will suit most body shapes, but you can also choose flare, crop or tapered, depending on what style suits you best.
