The secret of removing the stress of choosing what to wear from a closet full of clothes, is to curate a collection of fashion must-haves.

In this guide, we cover seven everyday fashion items we consider essential for any closet. Invest in these items to create the foundation of your wardrobe, delivering versatile looks with minimal effort.

Let’s get started!

Denim Jeans

A pair of denim jeans is easily one of the most essential pieces of clothing you can own. Denim jeans are versatile and can go from a movie night to a business-casual event. Opt for straight or wide-leg blue denim; it’s in vogue and looks great on almost all tops and shoes.

You can pair your denim with a tee for a casual vibe or dress it up with a blazer, especially in fall and winter. The color is up to you, but medium to dark blue wash is one of our favorite denim colors.

The White T-shirt

If you do not have at least one white T-shirt in your closet, now is the time to invest in one. A perfect white T-shirt is a wardrobe essential you can dress up or down easily.

Pair it with joggers for a quick errand or with jeans or a skirt for a casual vibe. Add a pair of heels for a more elevated look. We recommend you invest in high-quality, lightweight tees perfect for layering and enough to wear on their own.

Hoop Earrings

A list of wardrobe essentials isn’t complete without a pair of everyday hoop earrings. Accessories are perfect for adding a finishing touch to your outfit, and with hoops, you have something appropriate for everything, from formal wear to breezy dresses.

The Carryall Bag

Your wardrobe needs a bag that is both functional and stylish. An everything-tote bag is a great companion for weekend getaways, work days, and errands requiring multiple items. Your carryall bag can take your laptops, clothes change, sunscreen, books, and everything you want to carry.

Athleisure Leggings

Form-fitting leggings are good for working out or running errands. When you throw on an oversized top or flowy blouse, you have an outfit to catch a plane or grab drinks.

An Easy Dress

An easy dress is a wardrobe staple you can wear any time of the year. In winter, pair it with a wool coat and boots, and in summer, pair it with sandals and simple jewelry.

Little Black Dress

While an easy dress is essential for an everyday look, a little black dress is great for formal affairs. Whether you’re going to a ball, a date night, or last-minute drinks with friends, an LBD will never go out of style!

There are many options for LBDs, but a good tip to find your perfect dress is to pick something that flatters your body shape.

Bottom Line

It’s safe to say you have at least one of these highlighted essentials in your closet. If you’re going to buy any more fashion items, make sure it’s one or more of the other wardrobe must-haves on this list. With these essentials, you can curate versatile looks all year round.
