While there’s a lot of information out there on wardrobe essentials for each season and we’re constantly hearing about ever-changing trends, we think it’s more important to build your wardrobe around what makes you look your best. Here is a list of 10 essential items that should serve as the foundation of your wardrobe. It is best to get these good quality clothing items from brands you trust as we are pretty sure you will be looking for them more often and they will stay in your wardrobe all year long.
girdles
Let’s start with the most controversial item on the list: shapewear. We don’t list it because it’s something you should wear all the time. Not at all, feel free to avoid it altogether if you don’t like it. We strongly believe that people should dress in the way that makes them feel most comfortable. However, if you feel like you might want to have it just in case, for the days when you want to embody the unrealistic ideals portrayed in Hollywood (because let’s be real, everyone wears girdles on the red carpet) here are some of the things to wear. must search. First of all, don’t skimp on the price. While shapewear is technically an undergarment and is not meant to be seen, it is meant to give shape and shape, while still feeling comfortable. So it’s better to splurge and buy something that’s made of a durable and comfortable fabric. Another thing to look out for is the sticky, clingy stuff on the inside, which will help keep the shapewear in place and prevent it from shifting and rolling down.
Cowboys
We think jeans are essential because it’s something we wear most days. Which style of jeans you prefer is up to you, but we’re still pretty enamored with mom jeans just because they’re so comfortable. When shopping for jeans, be sure to try them on first, or if you’re ordering online, check that the store has a good return policy. It’s best to try a few brands, familiarize yourself with the size ranges, and once you find your favorites, invest in a few pairs in different colors or styles. We think it’s always good to have at least three pairs of jeans: black, dark blue, and light denim with rips. Those three should really cover all kinds of occasions.
Basic black t-shirt
We’re talking essentials here, so a black t-shirt really is one of those staples that you’ll reach for every time. You want something that is soft, not too stiff, and fits well. It is also very important to find a black t-shirt that will not lose color over time, so that you can continue to wear it and combine it with your outfits without losing its tone and shape in just a few washes.
cropped cardigan
Cardigans are great for layering your outfits, especially for those transitional times of the year when the temperature changes rapidly throughout the day and you don’t know whether to wear a t-shirt or a sweater. Short cardigans in particular are great for showing off your curves, as they visually hug your waist and elongate your legs. And they look just as good with high-waisted jeans, skirts, and dresses.
Maxi Skirt
Long skirts are one of the most flattering garments for curvy women. It’s flowy, it’s pretty, and if you get one that can be cinched at the waist and you can cinch it up or loosen it (depending on how you’re feeling that day), it really can be one of those pieces that pulls an outfit together and makes you look effortlessly chic. while feeling extremely comfortable.
denim jacket
They go with everything and are a great way to dress up or down. There are many styles to choose from depending on what you like best, but we’re partial to a cropped jean jacket that’s looser. Not too big or boyfriend style, but something that feels comfortable and that you can easily slip into.
Dungarees
This is something you probably wouldn’t expect on an essentials list, but trust us, you do need a pair of dungarees (or dungarees, depending on which part of the world you’re from). The style of dungarees you choose will depend on your shape, height and preference, but we think jumpsuits are universally flattering and can actually look very stylish if you buy them in black denim or any color corduroy. For a more casual and relaxed vibe, we recommend a dark denim dungarees. Dungarees are also great for layering and can be warmed up with warm tights and a long-sleeved top in the winter and a simple t-shirt in the summer.
Belt
Belts are essential because they can literally pull off any look. Obviously, you can wear them with high-waisted jeans to draw even more attention to your waist. But belts are also great for cinching up any dress and instantly giving it that hourglass look.
A coat
While puffer jackets may be all the rage these days, a good coat is something that can instantly make you look stylish. This is one of those clothes that will last you for years, so make sure you choose a quality fabric that fits you well. You will spend a pretty penny on it, but it will definitely be worth it.
