You can look stylish every day without having hundreds of outfits. Above all, an elegant lady needs to build a solid foundational wardrobe of pieces that fit immaculately. Developing a capsule wardrobe, you love wearing is an essential first step in creating your unique personal style.
1. Forget about impulsive shopping
Shopping for new clothes often brings pleasant euphoria. All of a sudden end up with many things that you will wear only once. Some of them will be forgotten with the labels somewhere deep in your wardrobe. As a matter of fact, these reckless purchases will not help you look more stylish but will only limit your budget. Learn to shop only for the things you need. Think about whether there is something you can combine them with before pressing the “buy” button or hanging out your credit card.
2. First thing to remember is building your capsule wardrobe by selecting essentials item in neutral colours. Colours-black, grey, white, cream or beige are a good start.
Quality classic designs will always look on trend and can be easily mixed and matched. They will not look out of style. Such classic items are a small black dress, a few pairs of jeans and stylish trousers, a classic blazer, a couple of t-shirts, shirts, vests and camis, and leather or jeans jackets.
3. The next step in upgrading your style is adding colour elements to your accent.
Yes, they may seem a little scary initially, so start with a one-colour base in a neutral colour and add just a one-colour element. Over time, you will learn how to skillfully combine different prints and colours to achieve even bolder and more distinctive looks.
4. Another key point is the combination of colours is no more than three, including the accessories.
5. We are not done yet. It is time for show time. Put it into practice and see how happy you are with a new build wardrobe. You might find that keeping the main outfit the same and adding different layering pieces will lift the whole clothing combination; additional accessories or a stylish hat will be all it takes. Don’t be afraid to try new combinations.
6. When you find the winning stylish outfit combinations, take a picture so that you can refer to it later. You might want to attach them to an inside wardrobe door, ready to get back to them.
