Essential Wardrobe Pieces You Should Have In Your Closet

Have you ever questioned what staple items would make a perfect wardrobe? I know I’ve asked myself this question several times in the past. There are so many different opinions about what a women needs in her closet. Should they just be plain basic pieces? The answer is no. It is all about finding pieces that you are comfortable in and what fits your style best. For me, I like pieces that compliment my body and are more tailored to my shape.

Now this may all seem quite simple when it comes to finding staple pieces but that may not always be the case. This is a process that may take some time. I know for myself, having these pieces make it easier for me to get dressed and out the door everyday. Here is my list of my must have items.

Litte Black Dress: This is a classic item that looks great on everyone. Rather you do a strapless, maxi, A-line, a LBD is perfect for all seasons. It can be dressed up with heels or flats, depending on what type of look you are going for.

Blazers: I love a good blazer. I own a few of them in several different colors. My favorite though would be my black blazer. You can do a simple blazer or one that is more dressed up with some embellishments.

Black Heels: I feel that every woman should have a pair of black heels in their closet. You can pair black heels with any outfit and make it complete.heelsJeans: Having jeans in my wardrobe is key. There are days when I don’t feel like getting dressed up, so I throw on a nice blouse and jeans. Seeing that there are so many styles of jeans these days, anyone can find the perfect fit for their body type. I find that I gravitate toward darker jeans, more than light washed ones. Dark washed jeans are more versatile and can be easily paired with different types of colors.

White Tops: Rather it’s is a nice blouse or a tank top ranging from silk to cotton, having white tops in your closet is essential. Now this may not be a piece that is that exciting compared to colorful tops but it’s more versatile. You can easily pair a white top with jeans for a casual look or pair it a pencil skirt for a more professional look.

Black Tops: These are just as versatile as having white tops in your closet. Having a black top can really tie together any outfit. I love taking a black tank top, blazer, jeans and heels to make a comfortable dressy casual look.

Now there are a ton of other items that would be perfect to be in any closet but these are always great options to have. Do you have any essential pieces that are a must have in your closet?

    Great picks! I have all of these basics and I totally agree with how essential they are in a woman’s wardrobe!! Especially the pair of black heels (pointy and non-pointy) – black is always a safe colour!!

    Thanks for sharing!!

    I’ve got a pair of charcoal grey slacks that I wear once a week (& have for the last 10 years – the same pair. They’re that good). They work with just about everything I own…and they aren’t black. I don’t have anything against black – I have a lot black – but some times it’s nice to break it up.

    • I agree! Black is a great go to for any look but I love mixing it up as well. My closet ranges from black to hot pink. I love charcoal grey pants as well. Thank You for stopping by!

  6. Okay, yes to all of this! I need to get a new LBD, but I seriously have SO much white and black because it’s so easy to wear and match with everything! And having a blazer is all kinds of important!!

    • Chelsie, I have a lot of black and white items as well. Though my closet has so many different colors in it. Lol. I recently purchased a new LBD and I’m in love with Blazers!

  7. It always comes down to the basics. A white v-neck shirt is essential in my wardrobe!

    • Having the basics, helps you grow your closet a little more. I love the classic black and white clothing but I love pops of color.

    I am very embarrassed to say I don’t have very many of these pieces, which I know I should! I’ve been in the market for a pair of classic black heels and recently got black sandal ones (with a heel) that I love, but I really need to get a pointed toe pair – time to start saving for a nice pair!

      Rachel, it takes time to build a wardrobe. I know it took me awhile. That’s awesome that you found you some sandal black heels. I bet they are extremely comfortable! I have a few black pointed toe shoes. They are great to have.

      Hannah it is hard to keep white blouses clean for me at times but I try so hard not to get anything on them. I love simple staple items.

  10. I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your blog? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

  16. I run a vape store directory and we have had a listing from a vape shop in the United States that additionally sells CBD items. A Calendar month later, PayPal has contacted use to claim that our account has been limited and have requested us to remove PayPal as a payment solution from our vape store directory site. We do not retail CBD goods like CBD oil. We merely offer marketing services to CBD firms. I have checked out Holland & Barrett– the UK’s Major Health Merchant and if you take a close look, you will see that they offer a comparatively considerable stable of CBD goods, primarily CBD oil and they also happen to take PayPal as a settlement method. It appears that PayPal is applying double standards to different firms. Due to this constraint, I can no longer take PayPal on my CBD-related internet site. This has limited my payment choices and presently, I am seriously contingent on Cryptocurrency payments and direct bank transfers. I have spoken with a solicitor from a Magic Circle law practice in London and they stated that what PayPal is undertaking is completely not legal and inequitable as it ought to be applying a systematic standard to all companies. I am still to consult with yet another lawyer from a US law practice in London to see what PayPal’s legal position is in the United States. Meanwhile, I would be highly appreciative if anyone here at targetdomain could provide me with substitute payment processors/merchants that work with CBD companies.
