Build a Timeless Wardrobe
The purpose of a timeless wardrobe is to provide a staple to your closet that you can use year after year and not look dated. From the simple black dress to the set of pearls, you know you are ready for those important days regardless of the time of year.
Some helpful tips when finding the timeless wardrobe that is perfect for you is to consider the style, the cut, the color and ask yourself if it is right for you. Staples tend to be more earth tone, since they rarely go out of style. Shop for quality and you will be able to see your pieces last for years.
Many years back I worked part time with a major department store while attending college. I did not realize at the time, but some of the advice was lasting. We had classes, training sessions on how to build that lasting wardrobe. One of the pieces of advice was to invest in one or two pieces a month that were timeless and perfect for you. To buy the piece that would last for years.
For those wanting to stay up to date with the trends, it is easy to do. Once you have built your timeless wardrobe, you can easily add in that season’s colorful lime green blouse and not have a huge investment lost when it loses its appeal the following year. Stay up to date with the trends with accessories, eye candy shoes and colorful blouses.
Here are some classics to give some ideas on what you might look for when building your timeless wardrobe.
