Must-Have Items for a Fashion Conscious Wardrobe
Like most things in life, fashion trends are never constant or linear. Instead, they change and develop as the years go by, occasionally springing back into popularity here and there. But despite this constant shift, some pieces stand the test of time. Pieces that you can use to build the ultimate capsule wardrobe.
Investing in wardrobe items like coats, floral dresses, and the ultimate heel helps you to create a closet you can turn to all year round. Building this base will not only be kinder to your bank balance. But, you will also effortlessly carry you through trends because some things simply never go out of style, like the Ms.Lola Collection. Remembering that dresses for women can be a premium product in this category is necessary.
Coat
An elegant winter coat is an excellent place to start. Buying a functional, thigh-length winter coat in a neutral color is a great addition to any outfit during the colder months and is one of those items that can pair with jeans for a casual look or an elegant cocktail dress for a night out.
If you don’t live in a part of the world that warrants a heavy winter coat, opt for a trenchcoat or winter jacket to keep out the cold. The main thing is to buy neutral. You want this item to match and compliment the clothes you already wear. Anything too bright or bold will clash.
Formal Dress
Whether you go out three times a week or three times a month, having a designated formal evening dress will be worth the purchase. Of course, the ultimate go-to here would be the little black dress. It is a timeless classic and appropriate for nearly any formal occasion you may find yourself in.
Additionally, because of its popularity, you will have no shortage of different styles, cuts, and materials to choose from to suit your taste and body shape. If you go out more often, consider buying two or three dresses to keep your options open. But finding one perfect LBD is more than sufficient.
Jeans
High-waisted, bootleg, skinny, baggy, straight cut. The options for jeans feel endless. But truth be told, when you find the perfect pair of jeans, you just know. As one of the most versatile items in your wardrobe, these fan favorites will give you an effortless choice no matter what time of year it is.
They can be dressed up for date night or a business meeting or dressed down for casual Sunday lunch or a stroll on the beach. Jeans never go out of style, making them a must-have item.
Button-Down Shirt
Often described as a “fashion workhorse,” the button-down shirt is a highly versatile item to own. Changing up the style, size, and material of this item will give you a piece of clothing to incorporate into almost every outfit you may have.
Oversized linen shirts can be thrown over swimsuits or bralettes and jean shorts. A standard cotton version is appropriate for the office and a night out with friends. For a sexy alternative, silk or satin button-downs are ideal for date night.
Everyday Dress
The perfect everyday dress is not the dress that is the most glamorous or most expensive. Instead, it is the dress that makes you feel the best. It should be lightweight, flowy, and something you can throw on and instantly feel amazing in.
It could be a traditional maxi dress, a wrap dress, a simple cotton dress, or a breathable linen buttoned dress. If you are someone who likes bright colors or bold patterns, this is the most suitable item to express your outgoing personality. Pair it will simple accessories to give it the limelight it deserves.
Tailored Pants
Even though jeans are versatile and perfect to style, having a pair of tailored pants will be a worthwhile alternative. There will be occasions in your life where jeans feel out of place or too repetitive. When this happens, and it will, tailored pants will shine.
As the name suggests, when it comes to finding the perfect pair, you need to decide how you want them to fit your body. As a rule of thumb, a straight leg cut, slightly fitted on the thighs and hemmed just above the ankle is a standard base to start. From here, you can change the color, pattern, or hem length should you desire.
Shoes
Shoes are certainly a point of personal taste. Some people swear by heels while others live in flats. Regardless of who you are, finding a pair of casual shoes and a pair of formal shoes that fit you perfectly and you are willing to invest in makes for practical purchases.
Leather or faux leather loafers and branded sneakers are perfect flat footwear options. They are comfortable, and versatile and will match many different outfit choices. Additionally, a pair of combat boots will treat you kindly during winter.
If you prefer heels, consider splurging on a pair of designer heels for special occasions in your life. They won’t go out of fashion, and because you won’t be wearing them too regularly, it will extend their lifespan. Also, like a flat boot, heeled boots will carry you through the winter months.
