I know I’m not alone when it comes to struggling with what to wear during the seasonal changes. Not only is the weather confusing, but so is navigating a new wardrobe.
Trying to find what to wear seems like a constant uphill battle, only to have to figure out how to style it. I’m no expert, but I personally think that the easiest way to do that is by having the basics.
You don’t acquire the perfect staple wardrobe overnight, but here are my top 5 pieces to make the stressful seasonal transition a little bit less stressful.
- The perfect gold hoop. What makes a good outfit? A good outfit is how you style it. To me, there’s no better way to add your own personal touch to a basic outfit than with jewelry and accessories. A classy gold hoop is just that- classy, timeless, and goes with just about everything.
- Classic button-down. Whether worn in the summer as a bathing suit cover-up, in the winter as a layered piece under a chunky sweater, or simply on its own- there’s nothing like a classic button-down. It can be dressed up, or dressed down, and is super comfortable no matter how you slice it. It’s the perfect way to look chic no matter the season.
- Neutral sneakers. A staple everybody needs no matter the occasion- a neutral sneaker is the way to go for running errands, going to class, heading out with friends, or a trendy dinner. Pair them with any outfit, winter or summer, and complete your look.
- Basic bodysuit. You can absolutely NEVER have too many basic bodysuits. Wear them with a skirt, jeans, trousers, shorts- literally endless options, never mind the layering possibilities. A basic bodysuit is the ideal way to show off your own style with a piece that works with anything.
- Blazer. A blazer elevates any look- and is a super versatile piece. It can work fitted or oversized. Need to dress up a sweatshirt and biker shorts or a comfy jacket over a cute dress? Look no further- a simple blazer is your best friend.
There are enough stressors with the seasonal changes- never mind the fuss of crafting the perfect outfit. The saying remains true: Look good, feel good. Dress your best all year- round and turn heads no matter the occasion.
