Since quantity is not the primary role in building an ultimate wardrobe, rethinking your capsule wardrobe items is inevitable. The first rule to restart your wardrobe is going for quality, and the following is versatility. Find clothing items that will be easy to match with everything you already have, and that will last forever. Forget the trends. When done right, combining the essential wardrobe items into the wrong outfit is nearly impossible unless you get your size and fit wrong. It is never too late to restart the wardrobe.
When it comes to revamping your wardrobe, it's essential to start with versatile and timeless pieces that can serve as the foundation for building a new and refreshed style. Consider investing in staple items such as a classic white button-down shirt, a well-fitted pair of jeans, a tailored blazer, and a little black dress. These pieces are versatile and timeless, ensuring that they will remain stylish for years to come.
In addition to these wardrobe essentials, you may also want to incorporate trendy pieces to inject a fresh and modern vibe into your outfits. Look for statement pieces like a boldly patterned blouse, a colourful midi skirt, or a pair of stylish sneakers to add a touch of personality to your new wardrobe. Mixing classic staples with trendy items will help you balance timelessness and current fashion trends.
Remember to pay attention to the fit and quality of your chosen clothing. Opt for pieces that flatter your body shape and are made from high-quality materials to ensure longevity. Building a stylish and functional wardrobe requires careful consideration and curation, but with the right pieces, you can create a versatile and chic collection that will serve you well for years to come.
1. Solid white T-shirt and shirt.
Both solid white T-shirts and shirts are wardrobe staples. This is not because of this colour's clean and crisp feel but because these items are versatile. You can wear them with everything.
2. Dark blue jeans
Why? Denim trousers with more coloured washing will make you look more dressed and slick. Who wants denim with too complicated washing anyway? Selvedge denim is the boss.
3. Camel chinos
It's so typical yet so versatile. You can wear the camel-coloured chinos for any occasion with almost everything—even your girlfriend’s oversized leather biker jacket.
4. A crew neck sweater
Feeling Scandinavian and tidy in the crew neck sweater on Saturday morning will beat the need for coffee one day. But it will be a long, difficult battle. But hey, a cup of coffee and an Acne Studios sweater encapsulating your body is a recipe for a good selfie.
5. A killer jacket (it can be a part of a suit)
Instead of a dressed-up suit, consider buying a well-fitted blazer and trousers that you can wear for both semi-formal and casual occasions.
6. Brown leather shoes
Brown leather shoes will instantly connect you to the professionals when you commute during rush hour. These are essential shoes to have, but I still can’t understand why 99% of people in the business district choose to wear brown shoes. A bro’s code, maybe?
7. Fashion sporty sneakers
Forget the overshared sneakers, a high-street brand everyone wears and shares on Instagram or elsewhere. Wait for a while and build your gold to purchase the high-end sneakers that will make everyone turn their heads while you are walking down the streets. Believe me; it happens to me every time.
8. Grown-up coat
Burn your nylon long coat and shop for a wool, cashmere body-fit long coat. You will feel much better afterwards.
9. Last but not least
Go all black and reshape your silhouette. But how? Well, just as I am showing you in my outfit/ look of the day post! Go for all black and play with shapes. I chose to wear cropped black trousers and a long sleeveless vest. Ready to sense yourself into the more avant-garde style? Yes, for sure. People might think that I am working at a famous contemporary museum in a big metropolitan area or just a fashionista wannabe. But who cares?
