Must Haves for Every Closet!






Hey Everyone! I'm ssoso sorry I haven't written in so long! But today I have a really exciting post: must have staple items for every closet! :)

 Wear with all bag
Every woman needs a go to bag that matches everything. If you don't have one already, I recommend getting one that will match everything. So a simple style and pattern (or a solid colour!), and a colour that will go with any outfit you wear (think earthy tones, black/greys, or white/beige). 


White and Black Cardigans
Cardigans are the perfect sweaters because they're small so they're easy to bring places, they're light but still warm and they're very versatile. (especially in black and white!) Cardigans are perfect for unpredictable fall weather, because if you get warm you can always throw it around your shoulders (or an oversized bag!) and if you get chilly obviously you can keep it on :)

Diamond Studs!
You've all heard the expression "diamonds area a girls best friend," and it's completely true! Diamonds go with everything and diamond studs are small enough to go with every single outfit, but still had a pop of subtle glamour!

 LBD!
Seriously. The most important out of everything I'm listing! You can wear the same a little black dress for years. If you get a simple style (nothing too trendy!) and wear the right accessories with it, it will look stylish for years and years to come. You can also dress it up or dress it down depending on where you're going! Go ahead and splurge on one that flatters your body really nicely, because I promise you'll get a ton of use out of it! :)

Black or Nude Pumps
Guess what? They go with every outfit and can dress up or down any outfit! (awkward how I'm saying the same thing for every item :s But it's alllllllllll true! :) )

Perfect Pair of Jeans
If you're going to splurge on any piece of clothing, it should be a gorgeous pair of jeans that flatter you perfectly! They'll boost your confidence cause you know you look great in them, not just OK, and if you get a solid dark wash with no distress they can easily go from super casual to dressy with black high heeled boots. (PS look out for a post on the perfect jeans for your body type!)

A Classic Jacket or Coat
Will fall and winter just around the corner it's important to have a good quality classic style jacket. It could be a bomber, pea coat, trench coat, leather jacket, anything that flatters you and will give you an extra boost of confidence! :)

Keep in mind with staple items...........
  • most are black: black goes with everything, it's timeless, no one can tell how often you've worn it, it's a flattering colour on every body type, and it's easy to spice up with trendier and more colourful pieces
  • classic style: if you splurge on something really trendy you'll end up not wanting to wear it the next season because it will look, well..last season. I recommend buying fairly inexpensive trendy items so that you don't feel like you've wasted a ton of money when they go out of style.
  •  good quality: if staple items are exceptional quality they will last forever! Go ahead and splurge on these timeless items because they'll get enough wear that they pay for themselves! 
  • flattering: Since you'll be wearing them a lot, your staple items should fit really well and be really flattering! :) They'll make you more confident and proud, and that will just add to how amazing they look on you! :)
