Do you often find yourself unsure of what to wear? It can be frustrating when you are getting dressed for work, going on a night out or meeting a friend for lunch when you struggle to make a decision on an outfit. You do not always want to go out in the same thing, which is why people should focus on building a minimalistic wardrobe that can give you a lot of options.
Clearing Out Your Wardrobe
The first step is to clear out your wardrobe and you may need to be ruthless here. You should get rid of anything that you have not worn in a year along with anything that is worn, faded or no longer fits. It can be hard, especially when you have emotional attachments to certain items, but you need to get rid of what you no longer wear (sentimental items cold be kept somewhere other than the wardrobe). You may also want to get into the habit of going through your wardrobe a few times a year to get rid of what you no longer need.
Stop Must-Need Items
Next, you can start to build your wardrobe back up again by investing in the staple items. Places like Zara, M&S, Monki and H&M will be perfect for the staples, which include items such as:
- T-shirts and tanks in different colours
- Button-down white shirt
- Basic sweater
- Blazer
- Trench coat
- Cami
- Skirt
- Smart trousers
- Black leggings
- Boots
- White sneakers
- Hoodie
- Joggers
When purchasing the staples, you will find that it is generally best to stick to simple styles and basic colours like black, white, grey and blue. This is because it will be much easier to match and create new outfits out of what you have.
Additionally, you may want to consider the wardrobe itself and consider an upgrade to a new sliding wardrobe that will give you the space that you need to easily access and see your clothes each day.
Everyday Jewellery
Of course, jewellery is a major part of fashion so you will need to consider this when redesigning your wardrobe. You should consider your own personal style and whether you are more into bold and chunky jewellery or more subtle, daintier styles. Places like Astrid & Miya, Ana Luisa and Daisy London Missoma are suitable for all styles and will help you to find stylish pieces that will bring your outfit together.
Hopefully, this post will be informative and help you to start building a minimalistic wardrobe that will give you plenty of options for outfits. Many people have wardrobes that are bursting and this can make it hard to pick out an outfit, especially when a lot of the clothing is old, dated and/or no longer fits.
