What if the closet is jam-packed with nothing to wear? Every girl who wants to look stylish at least a little bit has come across this more than once in her life. In most cases, this is due to the fact that girls do not know how to choose the right basic things for their wardrobe. In order to solve it, you just need to rethink your approach to the choice of things and understand what a modern basic wardrobe is.
To begin with, a basic wardrobe is the smallest possible set of things that are combined with each other and create so-called “capsules” that help you easily choose the combination of the right things.
The first thing to start with is with the awareness of which style should be followed when drawing up a basic wardrobe. It should also be borne in mind that the basic wardrobe is not only black and white things, but also things that you like. Here you will have to choose clothes that fit the type of figure, color type and correspond to the status and age.
The second step in compiling a basic wardrobe will be drawing up a “wardrobe needs map”. To draw it up, it is worth evaluating what clothes and in what proportions should be in the closet.
For example, in the wardrobe of a student girl who plays sports and sometimes attends nightclubs or parties, one should give preference not only to casual clothes and a pair of sports kits and sneakers, but also to find a place for a pair of beautiful dresses and loose clothes, maybe even rocker, styles. But it is worth following the main principle: most of the clothes should correspond to the main area of human life.
After determining the main component of the wardrobe, it is necessary to determine which colors and styles are most suitable for the skin color and body type. If the thing you like does not make you look fat, or makes the skin tone unhealthy, then you should not “take” such a thing into your wardrobe!
When it is known what items of clothing the basic silhouette consists of, it remains to determine the formula – that is, to determine the required minimum of things in the wardrobe, for this there are several universal rules:
1. On one bottom, you should select at least two tops;
2. For each top it is worth picking up a separate set of jewelry;
3. For each bottom should be selected at least two pairs of shoes in the same or different styles;
4. For each season, you should choose 2 outer garments that will be combined with shoes.
These universal rules can be used to easily and simply create your own formula for a basic wardrobe, but how many items of clothing, how many pairs of shoes and which handbags to choose – everyone decides for himself.
