I worked in retail for a long time. I loved dressing people but never thought fashion was my thing. But, I realized I have a secret passion for fashion even though I don't work in retail anymore.
I decided to be my favorite model and go through my closet and create my dream wardrobe based of my current closet. So, let start with the basic. It's import that every closet have a few basics to build on.
I have been holding on to so many clothes that no longer serve me. They don't bring me joy and often bring me sadness. So, I did it. I threw 90% of my closet away. I bagged everything up and now it's time to rebuild. The first place I go to is Pinterest. I have a pin board called My Style but to be honest, I have never looked at it. So, here is my inspiration, style that I gravitate towards.
Based on my body type I follow one rule, if it is tight and fitted on the top then its loose on the bottom and vice versa.
After purging my closet and looking at pinterest, I thought about the lifestyle I lead and here is what I came up with:
I'm convinced every closet needs:
-White dress shirt
-Tailored Dress Coat
-Moto Jacket
-Denim Jacket
-Black Dress
-Slip Dress
-Wrap Dress
- Jeans (that fit well no matter the style)
- Black Pants
Every closet needs each of these items. Go towards colors that make you happy, you will be more likely to wear them. After you have these add the fun stuff
-Fun, sexy blouses
-Cute, colorful sweaters
- fun track suits
- cool jumpers
As you add to your closet the basics add versatility to your wardrobe. You will be able to have endless combinations that will be amazing each time. The fit is what is important remember that.
