Style enables people to express
themselves in ways that may not otherwise be possible. Style is unique to the
individual, and that’s why it has captured the interest of so many people. That
being said, I do believe while style is completely distinctive to every person,
there are certain essentials that myself and many others would consider
absolutely necessary to having a successful wardrobe. Here’s the list of the
top 20 essentials that I believe everyone should own!
#1 White or Striped
Button Down Shirt

Simply put, THIS
MATCHES WITH EVERYTHING. It also elevates your style, and dresses up a simple
outfit a bit more than a plain t-shirt would.
#2 Chambray top
Also matches with
everything, it’s a way to look put together, but a bit more casual. I find that
it pairs nicely with a pair of patterned trousers.
#3 Neutral Sweaters

I really love layering
and pullover sweaters with collared shirts underneath are my favorite look. I
often try to choose neutral sweaters so that I can wear statement jewelry, and
also so it’s easier to match the layering shirt underneath.
#4 Cardigan Sweaters

A cardigan is
necessary when you aren’t quite ready to put away you sleeveless summer
blouses.
#5 Layering tops
Long sleeve button
down shirts, as well as plain t-shirts are necessary in the winter when it’s
really cold out. Also, if you choose the right ones they can add a bit of
interest to your outfits!
#6 Cigarette Pants

I find these to be the
most flattering style on myself, and also on most others. I normally find that
these pants lend themselves to being dressed up or down, and you can wear boots
or flats with them and they still look great.
#7 Dark Wash Skinny Jeans
Dark wash is
fantastic, you can dress it up or down. Pairing dark wash with a chic black
blouse and nice shoes makes it a bit more formal, while a t-shirt and dark wash
jeans is a nice casual outfit.
#8 Patterned Pants

These are great
because you can buy one pair and have a bunch of different options because they’ll
more than likely have more color in them, and will be able to be paired with
many different tops.
#9 Black or Navy Dress

Something that can be
dressed up or down, depending on your accessories. A denim jacket for a casual
outfit and a blazer jacket for a formal one.
#10 Loafers

I LOVE loafers. I have
so so many pairs of them, in neutral colors, as well as some that are on the
more outrageous side. They make an outfit look more polished than normal ballet
flats, I think anyway.
#11 Leather boots
These just make sense,
they are stylish and keep your feet warm and dry during the winter. I prefer
riding boots, but there are hundreds of options.
#12 Neutral Jewelry
Jewelry that matches
with everything (although you know I’m not a huge fan) gives your wardrobe a
little extra sparkle without being too outrageous.
#13 Silver and Gold
Tone Watch

Ever find that your
watch doesn’t match the rest of your jewelry? Problem solved.
#14 Scarves

I really like scarves,
they add personality and color to an outfit. My favorite are square silk
scarves with lots of colors, because then you can make a bunch of outfits with
that one scarf.
#15 Small Cross body
Bag

The ideal travel bag,
it holds only what is necessary and wont weigh you down.
#16 Leather or Canvas
Tote

This is versatile,
will carry everything you need, and even things you don’t!
#17 Black Blazer
Jacket

The black blazer is
chic, and adds a professional touch to any outfit.
#18 Denim Jacket

Perfect for casual
outfits, it isn’t going to necessarily make you any warmer, but you’ll look
good!
#19 Trench Coat
A trench coat is a
stylish solution for the rain.
#20 Wool Pea Coat
A pea coat is a
stylish solution for the snow.
Hope you've enjoyed!!
Cheers!! xoxo
