JOIN USWhy fret and waste your time when you can stock up on a few things in advance to fall back on any time? Well, if you‘re still wondering, here‘s a list of wardrobe essentials that will be at your rescue whenever you need:
A basic denim jacket
No fraying, holes, or acid-washed rinse – should be a daytime standard. Like your favourite pair of jeans, a denim jacket goes with everything, and it‘s a great layering piece for cool summer nights, chilly fall days, or even when you need an extra layer during the winter.
The perfect blazer
Find a fitted blazer that you feel great in, and you‘ll have it in your closet for years and years. It‘s an internship and work essential that makes any outfit look instantly more professional, and can dress up jeans and a tee for a night out or work over a dress for a party.
Silk scarf
A silk scarf is a chic accessory that instantly upgrades an outfit. Try and find one that is a 100 percent silk as the breathable fabric will keep you warm during winter but is cool enough to wear through summer.
Your perfect jeans
Whether they are flared, cropped, skinny or boot cut, every woman needs a pair of jeans that make her derriere look good. Instant mood-booster!
Great sunglasses
When you invest in a pair of primo sunglasses, the likelihood of you forgetting them at brunch decreases significantly.
Silk blouse
A slinky blouse is perfect for days when you‘re feeling bloated, but still want to look put-together.
Everyday studs
Small classic studs go with everything and take any look up a notch. The tiny size makes them laid-back enough for class, but the crystals make them glam enough to rock with a party dress.
White tee
A white tee is a must-have for every wardrobe. You‘ll wear it all the time—with jeans, under sweaters, with skirts, you name it! Finding the perfect white tee can be a bit tricky. The best ones are soft with a relaxed fit—not too tight or too loose.
Motorcycle jacket
A black moto jacket is an essential layering piece that makes everything look instantly cooler. It adds edge to girly prints, takes summer dresses into fall, and looks great with jeans and a tee.
Cute clutch
Invest in a cute clutch in a neutral hue that you can take everywhere from a party or date to the movies with your girls. Choose one that has a removable strap so you can rock it hands-free during the day.
Black leggings
You can go straight from a Sbux run with your besties, to yoga class, to the couch for a Netflix binge in black leggings. They‘re just as comfortable as sweats but look much more put-together.
Little black dress
A flattering black dress will take you from your job to a date just by switching up the accessories! Keep it simple and classic with a style that hits just above your knee to get the most use out of it.
White sneakers
We love a good running shoe, but classic white kicks are a casual basic that will go with everything from cropped slacks to an LBD.
