While there are no set rules to fashion (and unleashing your creative side is key!) there are a few pieces that every wardrobe should contain, both for style and practicality.
If you’re looking for a definitive checklist of clothing must-haves for your collection, look no further. Let’s dive in to the items of clothing no wardrobe is complete without.
A Chunky-Knit Sweater
There are no two ways about it - everybody looks good in a chunky knit sweater. Whether worn on its own or styled over a collared shirt, a cosy sweater is a winter must-have and can be dressed up or dressed down depending on what you pair it with.
A good sweater looks great on men and women and it’s perfect for keeping warm during the colder months. For best results, pair it with a scarf and an equally stylish trench coat.
A Well-Fitting Pair of Jeans
Jeans are a wardrobe staple for every gender - and for good reason. Not only do they go with essentially everything, but they can be part of a formal or laid-back outfit depending on what you pair them with.
A Classic White T-Shirt
Looking for something to wear under a spaghetti strap dress? Need to pair something neutral with a pair of classic black jeans? Wanting a way to make your suit less formal?
A classic white tee is the solution.
This fashion staple should appear in everybody’s wardrobe and it’s the perfect addition to multiple outfits, ranging from the formal to the casual.
A Formal Outfit
The rumours are true - the prevalence of suits in the workplace is decreasing.
But even if you don’t have to wear formal clothing to work, there’s still a high chance you’ll need a formal outfit for at least a few events every year, whether that’s a wedding, a big birthday party, or a conference. With this in mind, a formal outfit is still well worth having in your repertoire.
Formal outfits differ from person to person, but typical choices include suits, jumpsuits, and dresses. Opt for a formal outfit in a color that will suit most occasions. That way, you won’t have to spend money on a whole new outfit every time you’re invited to a formal event.
A Sturdy Pair of Shoes
The best types of shoes are not only stylish, but also practical and comfortable. Look for a pair of comfortable shoes that are versatile enough to go with a range of outfits in both laid-back and formal settings.
Ariat boots, for example, offer lasting comfort and protection as well as complementing any outfit you choose.
A Button-Up Shirt
Everybody looks good in a crisp, white button-up shirt. Whether you’re heading to a job interview or want to look stylish at a fancy event, a button-up shirt is a must-have for all genders.
Dress it down over a pair of classic blue jeans, or add a fancy finish by wearing yours tucked into a pair of well-tailored suit trousers.
