Hi pretties! Wardrobe essentials are a must. You can pair them with anything, and they are completely timeless. Having a good set of wardrobe essentials is sure to save your money in the long run, because you can constantly mix and match different items to get the look you want. Here are 8 of my wardrobe essentials that are in my closet at all times!
Leggings
One of my most worn pieces of clothing are leggings. That is because most of my tops are long enough to cover my bum, so there will be no exposure there. I also love wearing leggings with dresses for the autumn and winter because they are more comfortable than tights.
Leather jacket
One of my most worn clothing items is the quintessential leather jacket. Every girl should have at least one leather jacket in her wardrobe, just to toughen up a frilly, girly outfit, or for warmth. It also adds a bit of edge to a plain white tee, ripped jeans, and booties.
Sneakers
One of my most worn accessories are sneakers. Sneakers are great for making any outfit seem a little more casual, so it’s perfect for popping a pair over a blazer and jeans to give that casual but dressy look. My favorite sneakers are the Adidas Stan Smiths because of how casual they look, and they go with almost anything in my closet.
Boots
Every girl needs a good pair of boots in her wardrobe, whether it’s riding boots or Chelsea boots. Boots will definitely keep you warm in the winter, and there are so many varieties that you can mix and match them to make your outfit more classic, edgy, or weather appropriate. Two of my favorite pairs of boots are combat boots, as they give a little bit of edge to any outfit, and riding boots for an elegant silhouette.
Flannel shirts
One wardrobe staple of mine is flannel shirts. I love these for the colder months because they act as a shacket (shirt jacket) for me, and they are long enough to cover my bum. I usually love wearing them with leggings, but sometimes I wear them with yoga pants if I’m feeling a bit lazier.
Cardigans
Cardigans are another wardrobe essential for me. They go with everything, they are classic, and you can easily layer them when it’s colder. I often wear these if I know I am going somewhere that is a bit colder than where I’m from, but not cold enough for the winter jacket. I love pairing them with leggings, dresses, pretty much anything your mind thinks of.
Dresses
One of my biggest wardrobe essentials are dresses. I love them because they are so easy to slip on, and you don’t really need to think twice about it. You can also dress them up by pairing them with pretty heels and a fancy bag, or dress them down with some boots and a leather jacket or even a denim jacket.
Backpacks
The final wardrobe essential I always have in my closet is a backpack. I love backpacks because they make carrying your things around much easier than a tote bag or a small shoulder bag. They also distribute weight evenly across your shoulders, so you won’t look lopsided when you have too much stuff. I find that backpacks are much more convenient than shoulder bags or crossbody bags, especially when traveling.
