Steps To Build Complete Wardrobe Essentials

By Young Lindsay


You may want a new look or have lost all of your clothing in a move or fire. Whatever the case, to build complete wardrobe essentials is fun and exciting. You can completely re-do yourself just with new styles and different colors and accessories. It is a great opportunity to refresh your personal aura and appearance.

You can start the process by sorting all of the clothing items in your possessions. Get rid of articles that haven't been worn within the past year unless they are dressy items such as formal gowns or, in the case of men, a tuxedo.

Choose one to three basic colors that your selections will be based on. For extra mileage, black is always a good color to begin with as almost everything matches this shade. Choose one or two colors to go with your base shade. For example, with black, red and white are always good choices as they are strong colors that can be worn year round. Adding accessories to these will be a snap, especially around the holidays.

Select the categories you will need for you lifestyle. The ones needed are usually divided into casual, work, formal, and social clothing. Some individuals may not need all of these different categories. For example, a stay-at-home mom may not need the work clothing that other individuals may require. A farm woman's work clothing may be the same as her casual clothing. An athletic person or runner may need an entire separate grouping of articles for her busy lifestyle.

If you love sports and working out, an athletic category is a must. You will need shirts, shorts, leggings, running bras, yoga pants, tennis shoes and much more. Begin with the basic items that are needed and add more items as your budget allows.

Black and brown are the best basic colors for boots. They are extremely versatile shades and can work great with everything from leggings to dresses. Keep a variety of boots on hand to keep your options open. The best quality footwear is usually made of leather and needs to be taken care of on a regular basis. Shoes polishes and shines should be kept available at all times to assist with scuffs and discolorations.

The shoes that are available are without limit. You will need many types including clogs, flats, work shoes, running shoes, loafers and heels. Select what fits your lifestyle and your bank account and spend most of your money on those styles you will wear most frequently. If you love to party, heels and dressy sandals are necessary. If work is what takes up most of your time, then professional wear is what is needed the most.

Formal clothing should only be purchased on an as needed basis. For example, don't purchase a formal gown or tea length dress unless you have an occasion to wear it. Save these luxuries for last in your budget as they are not needed often unless you have a truly glamorous life.

After your purchases have been completed, make a point of organizing your closet and drawer space to keep everything neat and easy to locate. Enlist the aid of professionals if necessary. Enjoy the new look that you have acquired and continue to change and update it as needed.
