Basics
Basics are the building blocks of our wardrobe. By owning the right basics, you can use your wardrobe in an optimal way.
I like to share 6 tips:
A good basic is:
x Timeless. This doesn’t mean boring. It can be a piece with (your ;-)) personality.
x Fits your wardrobe and also style.
x A quality piece. Be sure to investigate the seams. Are they strong and made with care?
x Is it love at first sight? Do you immediately feel that this piece is you?
x Is it worth your investment? Because this is a piece you will wear regularly it might be worth spending more on it.
x Will you wear it at least 30 times?
x If in addition you wear it in different ways it is really great.
A few examples of basics:
A jeans.
A black pair of pants
A black skirt
A black dress
Basic t-shirts
Basic tops
A blouse
A blazer
A cardigan
A timeless coat
You don’t have to have all these pieces. But it is important to have a good mix of tops and bottoms.
But don’t feel limited by this list. Yesterday I bought a black dungarees from Kaiko Clothing.
This is one of my favorite basics at the moment :-). It is the first time I bought from this brand and I love it. Blazer and wite top are from pioneer Peope Tree. I didn’t buy them but they are great basics. You can find them in the lovely setting of HOST.
